Green Packet’s group managing director and chief executive officer Puan Chan Cheong (pic) is the company’s biggest shareholder, with a direct stake of 10.22% as at June 12. He also holds an indirect stake of 16.9% via Green Packet Holdings Ltd.
PETALING JAYA: Singapore-based private equity (PE) firm Kendall Court has ceased to be a substantial shareholder of GREEN PACKET BHD, after it disposed of its entire stake in the international telecommunications and technology group.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, Green Packet said Kendall Court, via its wholly-owned unit Summit Synergy Ltd, had disposed of 100 million shares or its entire 10.9% stake via a direct business transaction.
The disposal, which took place in a few tranches last Wednesday to Friday at 80 sen a piece, represented a significant premium of close to 16% over the closing price of the Green Packet stock on Friday of 69 sen.
When contacted, Kendall Court founder Chris Chia said the disposal was part of the PE firm’s move to rebalance its portfolio and that it still believed in the Green Packet growth story. He said the PE firm did not rule out investing in Green Packet again in the future.
He declined to reveal to whom the stake was sold off to but added that it was to parties that are likely to contribute to Green Packet’s digital journey.
“We divested due to our own internal processes. We still continue to believe in the growth story of Green Packet and hope to participate in that growth in the near future.”
Kendall Court is an investment firm that manages equity-linked and mezzanine investments across South-East Asia and has deployed and managed over US$600mil in the region. It has invested into the natural resource, healthcare, consumer and telecom industries over the past decade.
The PE firm emerged as a substantial shareholder in Green Packet in September last year, when it acquired 65 million shares in via a direct business deal at a price of 70 sen a share or a 7.1% stake in the company.
In February this year, it bought another 35 million shares in Green Packet, raising its stake to over 10%.
Green Packet’s group managing director and chief executive officer Puan Chan Cheong (pic) is the company’s biggest shareholder, with a direct stake of 10.22% as at June 12. He also holds an indirect stake of 16.9% via Green Packet Holdings Ltd.
Green Packet has been actively growing its business.
Last month, it teamed up with Internet giant Tencent Holdings Ltd to leverage on the latter’s cloud services for the provision of eKYC (electronic know your customer) to businesses in Malaysia, particularly banking and financial institutions.
KiplePay Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Packet, will leverage on Tencent Cloud’s facial recognition and machine learning capabilities to build a localised e-KYC solution through its KipleID e-KYC.
Last week, Green Packet said it is acquiring Singapore-based e-KYC (Electronic Know Your Customer) specialist firm Xendity Pte Ltd. Green Packet took over the company for US$10mil.
With the acquisition, it will enable Green Packet to strengthen its digital identity verification services, a fast-growing sector as more organisations move towards their digital transformation.
This will reinforce Green Packet’s position as the partner for digital financial solutions for various industries in Malaysia including telecommunications and banking.
Green Packet has also announced its intention to apply for a digital bank licence in Malaysia and will likely be part of a consortium that will include the likes of Bank Islam Malaysia and Tencent, both of which it has business relationships with. 26/06/2020 11:48 AM

berita e-wallet lagi :) KUALA LUMPUR (June 26): The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (Mosti) will embark on a pilot programme to use of robotic technology in various sectors to replace human labour, hence reducing the country’s dependence on foreign workers.
Minister Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar (pictured) said the privately-developed programme would be implemented first in the manufacturing sector soon.
He said the implementation of the programme was made possible under the National Technology and Innovation Sandbox (NTIS) initiative outlined in the National Economic Recovery Plan (PENJANA).
“This is mainly for industries that need low-cost labour involving foreign workers...old jobs will disappear and new ones (involving digital technology) will be created,” he said when interviewed in RTM’s Selamat Pagi Malaysia programme today.
Khairy also said that Mosti would expedite the implementation of the smart farm programme to ensure the country’s food security and hence, achieve a better level of self-sufficiency.
“During this Covid-19 pandemic, for example, we are worried that the country will not be able to import food items... the level of our food self-sufficiency is still low.
“Among the technologies that we need to explore are sensor technology and the internet of things (IoT),” he said.
To achieve the objective, Khairy said the government has been intensifying efforts to upgrade broadband infrastructures across the country.
Elaborating, the minister said Mosti would also take more initiatives to enhance public awareness on cashless transaction, especially among those in rural areas.
“Our goal is to become a cashless society, so we must ensure it become a new normal not only in urban but also in rural areas.
“I want to see e-wallet become the new normal even at a farmers’ market,” he said, adding that he planned to make his own constituency of Rembau as a case study.
The NTIS initiative, led by Mosti, was announced by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin while unveiling the PENJANA on June 5, to complement the national digitalisation process.

KUALA LUMPUR (June 16): Set to offer a complete end-to-end solution to banks and financial institutions, Green Packet Bhd is buying Singapore-based e-KYC (Electronic Know Your Customer) specialist firm Xendity Pte Ltd for US$10 million.
With the acquisition, it will enable Green Packet to strengthen its digital identity verification services, a fast-growing sector as more organisations move towards their digital transformation. This, in line, will reinforce Green Packet's position as the preferred partner for digital financial solutions for various industries in Malaysia including telecommunications and banking.

"The acquisition of Xendity forms a key part of our go market strategy with a solid e-KYC solution," said its group managing director and chief executive officer Puan Chan Cheong in a statement.
"Although they (Xendity) are a new start-up company of about three years, their track record, experience, and capabilities as a main solution provider in the regulated e-KYC and ID management space should be applauded," Puan noted, adding that Xendity's solutions will add significant scale to Green Packet's digital financial offerings.
E-KYC specialises in technologies on document verification, facial recognition and biometrics and typically only requires users to do so from their smartphones or personal computers remotely.
Last month, Green Packet announced a tie-up with Tencent Cloud to leverage on the latter's facial recognition and machine learning capabilities to build a localised e-KYC solution.
Green Packet will be paying US$10 million for a 100% stake in Xendity, with a combination of cash and shares and with performance-based tranches. It will initially pay US$1.5 million cash plus issue of new shares worth US$4 million.
Then, over the next two years, Green Packet will pay up to US$4.5 million via new shares and these payments will be based on Xendity meeting stipulated key performance targets.
In 2018, credit reporting agency CTOS, together with Xendity as its technology partner and leading banks, participated in Bank Negara Malaysia’s (BNM) e-KYC Financial Technology Regulatory Sandbox.
Having met the central bank’s Sandbox’s e-KYC eligibility criteria, CTOS and the banks have made preparations to meet the upcoming BNM e-KYC policy. The banks have not deployed this solution to a live service and are currently awaiting the final outcome of the regulations to be issued by BNM.
Apart from Malaysia, Xendity is also making inroads into Indonesia, said Green Packet.
Other than its digital banking dream by building an ecosystem under the Kiple brand, Green Packet has also recently ventured into the proptech space, with a licence plate recognition technology, in conjunction with the launch of its flagship KipleLive solution under We Are Ready campaign.

KUALA LUMPUR (June 17): Trading interest in shares in Green Packet Bhd swelled this morning after it yesterday announced the acquisition of a Singapore-based e-KYC (electronic Know Your Customer) specialist firm, Xendity Pte Ltd, for US$10 million (RM42.79 million).
The counter had risen as much as 8.09 sen earlier this morning, before it pared some of its gains and was up two sen or 2.94% to 70 sen at 10.55am. This gave it a market capitalisation of RM699.61 million.

Some 116.6 million shares were traded. At that point of time, that was already nearly 10 times its 200-day average volume of 14.89 million, also making it the sixth most active counter on Bursa Malaysia today.
The stock soared to RM1.44 in May following its kipleLive launch, but had slipped some 51% since.
In a statement yesterday, Green Packet said the acquisition will enable it to strengthen its digital identity verification services, a fast-growing sector as more organisations move towards their digital transformation.
It said this will reinforce its position as the preferred partner for digital financial solutions for various industries in Malaysia, including telecommunications and banking.

Tencent’s cloud business has been the fastest growing among the top five players globally providing cloud services.
According to global IT research and advisory firm Gartner, Tencent Cloud is ranked fifth in the world for 2019 and is growing the fastest among the top five cloud players, at an annual growth rate of 111%.
Tencent Cloud is the cloud computing arm of Tencent Holdings Ltd, which is a leading provider of Internet value-added services in China.
It is listed on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and commands a massive market capitalisation of more than HK$4.1 trillion or US$530bil, not far from that of Facebook (US$598bil).
Cloud computing is a fast-growing area of technology as companies are fast beginning to realise the value of such services.
The adoption of cloud computing has also further picked up during the Covid-19 pandemic, as the nation leveraged more on digital product offerings in the “new normal”.
The local cloud computing market is expected to be worth US$3.7bil (RM15.8bil) in 2024, growing at a compounded annual rate of 13% from 2020.
Green Packet founder and group managing director C.C. Puan had previously highlighted that the adoption of cloud computing will experience rapid growth in the coming one to two years, across various industries especially with the convergence of next generation technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and Internet-of-Things.
