According to Eric Khor, Co-Founder & CEO of Wonder 7 Global” We are fully aware of the risk and challenges that the merchants and micro-entrepreneurs go through in their day-to-day business operations. As a social enterprise, our aim has always been to ensure the company provides the best to the people they connect. As part of that aim and promise, Wonder 7 Global Sdn. Bhd. provides the merchants and micro-entrepreneurs with a comprehensive SME Business Protection on top of the financing facilities.”

The collaboration with Wonder 7 Global offers their MSMEs simplified digital financial and insurance offerings to support them in achieving their business goals without financial worries. We hope that the financing facilities and business protection plan offered will also narrow the financial inclusion gap amongst the MSMEs.”
