Optasia, a leading fintech services provider, has received another top recognition, ranking third among the Top 30 Fintech companies in Middle East by Forbes Magazine in its Middle East edition.

Optasia’s optimal place in this highly prestigious list was secured by its continuous upwards trajectory and its peak performance, which were evaluated and acknowledged accordingly by Forbes’ team of professionals.

This is the second year in a row that Optasia has received a prestigious recognition from Forbes Middle East, as it was also featured in its “The Middle East’s Top 25 Fintech Companies” list in August 2022.

“For Optasia to be ranked so high by Forbes, after being evaluated by the best experts in the financial field, it’s a great accolade,” stated Optasia’s Founder, Bassim Haidar, while CEO Mark Muller added, “This is a true testimony that our vision to provide financial access for the next billion customers is paying dividends.”

Forbes Middle East list was compiled by the publication’s team of experts after reviewing numerous business entities applying technology to sectors like payments, insurance, digital banking, wealth management and personal financing.

With the solutions and versatility provided by the company’s proprietary AI-led platform, Optasia supports underbanked populations by providing them with previously unavailable access to financing.
