Solowin Holdings announced on September 2, 2025, its advanced negotiations for the proposed acquisition of a U.S.-licensed financial institution through a designated affiliate. This potential acquisition is considered a pivotal milestone in Solowin’s global expansion strategy. The U.S. banking license would enable the company to offer a comprehensive suite of international banking services, including deposit-taking, lending, and payment processing for global clients.
The proposed transaction is structured as a 'clean-charter' acquisition, meaning all legacy assets and liabilities would be removed before closing. This approach aims to provide Solowin with a fully regulated, blank-slate banking platform. Peter Lok, Chairman and CEO of Solowin, stated that this opportunity would provide strategic flexibility to innovate and scale fiat-based services.
The acquisition is anticipated to significantly enhance Solowin’s core business pillars by expanding its global compliance network and service capabilities. The completion of this acquisition remains subject to the execution of a definitive agreement and necessary regulatory approvals.
