The Singapore banking establishment is keen to implement FinTech and blockchain innovations after the launch of its accelerator program, FinLab, earlier this month.

On August 3, the Singaporean banking society, the United Overseas Bank (UOB) held its first accelerator program that focused on technology solutions for the financial sector and smart contracts.

Nine startups that took part: Attores, CardUp, FinMitra, FinReg, Nickel, SsinoConnect, Stock2Day, Tuple, and Turnkey Lender.

According to Singapore news outlet, The Straits Times, startup Attores is working toward building a blockchain system that executes smart contracts that will change banking services, which are still paper-intensive.
