To deploy anything into production would take multiple levels of clearances and approvals in any local bank. The only reason why local banks can survive despite such sluggishness is because they already have a well-established, sticky customer base and competition is very restricted due to high barriers to entry ie full banking license required from MAS. Garena is under Sea Group, which is rapidly growing and even beginning to threaten traditional banks with their newly-acquired digital banking license. It's a no-brainer imo.
