KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 (Bernama) -- AM Best has assigned a financial strength rating of A (Excellent) and a long-term issuer credit rating of “a+” (Excellent) to Taiwan’s Tokio Marine Newa Insurance Co Ltd (TMNewa), with a stable outlook.
In a statement, AM Best said the credit ratings (ratings) reflected TMNewa’s very strong balance sheet strength, adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.
The ratings also factor in the rating enhancement from its parent, Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co Ltd (TMNF), which is the main insurance operating entity of Tokio Marine Holdings Inc.
TMNewa, Taiwan’s fourth-largest non-life insurer with a 7.6 per cent market share in 2025, focuses primarily on motor insurance through links with Taiwan-based Yulon Group.
The global credit rating agency said TMNewa’s risk-adjusted capitalisation remained at the strongest level at end-2025, supported by retained earnings, shareholder capital injections, conservative investments and strong liquidity.
AM Best added that TMNewa returned to favourable operating performance following underwriting losses linked to pandemic-related products in 2022, with return on equity reaching 25.7 per cent in 2025.
The expense ratio benefits from the company’s sustained control over management expenses and commissions, along with the increased scale, and remains below the market average.
Going forward, TMNewa is targeting profitable growth in non-motor business lines, including fire and liability insurance for small to medium-sized enterprises, while being disciplined on large commercial risks.

Abaxx Advances Digital Title Toward Commercial Implementation; Names Alta as First Singapore Integration Partner
Agreement supports the formation of a Singapore-based VCC structure to enable the use of money market fund shares as T+0 collateral at Abaxx Clearing
TORONTO, May 8 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Abaxx Technologies Inc. (CBOE:ABXX)(OTCQX:ABXXF) (“Abaxx” or the “Company”), a financial software and market infrastructure company, and indirect majority shareholder of Abaxx Singapore Pte Ltd. (“Abaxx Singapore”), owner of Abaxx Commodity Exchange and Clearinghouse (individually, “Abaxx Exchange” and “Abaxx Clearing”), today announced a commercial engagement with Alta Alternative Investments Pte. Ltd. (“Alta”), one of Asia’s leading regulated brokerages, securities exchanges, and fund management platforms, to advance the use of money market fund shares as T+0 collateral for margin at Abaxx Clearing, moving Digital Title toward its first commercial implementation.
In December 2025, Abaxx demonstrated in a pilot that its Digital Title can provide a legally enforceable and operational mechanism to instantly mobilize money market fund shares as collateral for margin and financing. Evidence of legal title transferred immediately on margin call, giving the receiving party direct ownership of the underlying money market fund shares, rather than a pledged claim exposing them to an insolvency gap, while the original holder continued to earn yield on the same principal throughout the transaction.
Following the successful pilot, Abaxx has moved from pilot transactions to commercial partnerships, engaging with Alta to advance the use of money market fund shares as T+0 collateral for margin at Abaxx Clearing.
Abaxx and Alta have signed a letter of engagement to partner in the establishment of a Singapore-based Variable Capital Company (“VCC”) umbrella structure, including a sub-fund designed to invest in USD-denominated money market instruments and short-term fixed income securities, to support the use of those fund shares as T+0 collateral within Abaxx Clearing, while allowing yield on those assets to continue to accrue.
The VCC will be a Singapore-regulated open-ended fund vehicle designed for institutional use, providing the legal structure for those fund shares to be recognized as collateral within Abaxx Clearing, subject to regulatory approval. Alta is a Singapore-licensed fund management company, and will serve as fund manager for the VCC structure.
“This partnership with Abaxx Technologies marks a pivotal moment in extending Alta’s fund management capabilities into the cash and collateral space,” said Kelvin Lee, Group CEO, Alta. “Money market funds are highly liquid, short-duration vehicles invested in short-term debt instruments. The Abaxx Alta MMF is built for clearing participants: members holding margin at Abaxx shouldn’t have to choose between liquidity and yield, and by structuring the sub-fund’s units to function as T+0 collateral, we give them both. This works alongside Abaxx’s Digital Title technology, with real-time visibility into the sub-fund’s holdings across all parties providing the transparency required for the units to function as live collateral, something difficult to achieve under traditional settlement timelines. We’re proud to be Abaxx’s first integration partner, and optimistic about what this infrastructure can unlock for institutional markets.”
Initial margin held at the ten leading clearinghouses totaled approximately $915.7 billion at the end of 2024¹. Firms hold trillions more in commodities and securities that are not widely used as collateral, while assets that are in motion often move on T+1 cycles, requiring FCMs to maintain precautionary capital reserves.
Abaxx Digital Title pairs cryptographically secured evidence of ownership with verified identity to convert commodities and securities into high-velocity, yield-bearing T+0 instruments, enabling their use as collateral and supporting a more capital-efficient global trading system.

This press release includes certain “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” (collectively, “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable United States and Canadian securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “project”, “intend”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “plan”, “should”, “would”, “could”, “target”, “purpose”, “goal”, “objective”, “ongoing”, “potential”, “likely” or the negative thereof or similar expressions.
In particular, this press release contains forward-looking statements including, without limitation, Abaxx’s objectives and future plans, statements about the development and commercial implementation of Digital Title, Abaxx’s strategy for engaging with commercial partners related to the implementation of Digital Title, receipt of regulatory approvals, anticipated benefits of the commercial implementation of Digital Title to Abaxx and Abaxx’s role in the development of commodities and energy markets. Forward-looking statements are based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analyses and opinions of management made in light of its experience and its perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances at the date that such statements are made, but which may prove to be incorrect. Such factors and assumptions impacting forward-looking information include, among others: assumptions about the potential market opportunity and commercial adoption of Digital Title; receipt of required regulatory approvals for the implementation of Digital Title; availability of technical resources; market demand for the Company’s products and services; risks relating to the global economic climate; dilution; Abaxx’s limited operating history; future capital needs and uncertainty of additional financing; the competitive nature of the industry; currency exchange risks; the need for Abaxx to manage its planned growth and expansion; the effects of product development and need for continued technology change; protection of proprietary rights; the effect of government regulation and compliance on Abaxx and the industry; acquiring and maintaining regulatory approvals for Abaxx’s products and operations; the ability to list Abaxx’s securities on stock exchanges in a timely fashion or at all; network security risks; the ability of Abaxx to maintain properly working systems; reliance on key personnel; global economic and financial market deterioration impeding access to capital or increasing the cost of capital; and volatile securities markets impacting security pricing unrelated to operating performance. In addition, particular factors which could impact future results of the business of Abaxx include but are not limited to: the failure of energy markets and collateral use cases to develop according to the expectations of Abaxx; operations in foreign jurisdictions; protection of intellectual property rights; contractual risk; third-party risk; clearinghouse risk; malicious actor risks; third- party software license risk; system failure risk; risk of technological change; dependence of technical infrastructure; changes in global weather patterns; changes in the price of commodities, restrictions on labor and international travel and supply chains, and the risk factors identified in the Company’s most recent management’s discussion and analysis filed on SEDAR+. Abaxx has also assumed that no significant events occur outside of Abaxx’s normal course of business.
Abaxx cautions that the foregoing list of material factors is not exhaustive. In addition, although Abaxx has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended. When relying on forward-looking statements and information to make decisions, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Abaxx has assumed that the material factors referred to in the previous paragraphs will not cause such forward-looking statements and information to differ materially from actual results or events. However, the list of these factors is not exhaustive and is subject to change and there can be no assurance that such assumptions will reflect the actual outcome of such items or factors. The forward-looking statements and information contained in this press release represents the expectations of Abaxx as of the date of this press release and, accordingly, is subject to change after such date. Abaxx undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements and information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and information.

Introducing Jumio Watch: Because Identity Risk Doesn’t End at Onboarding
Introducing Jumio Watch: Because Identity Risk Doesn’t End at Onboarding
Early studies show 25% more risk detected after onboarding — risk that is invisible to traditional identity verification
SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 5 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Jumio, the leading provider of AI-powered identity intelligence, today announced the launch of Jumio Watch, a first-of-its-kind continuous identity intelligence offering that fundamentally transforms how organizations understand and manage identity risk. Jumio Watch moves identity verification from a point-in-time decision into a dynamic, continuously evolving intelligence signal.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260430140369/en/
For decades, identity verification has operated on the flawed assumption that a decision made at onboarding remains valid indefinitely. In reality, a user verified today can become a significant fraud risk tomorrow as new patterns, connections and signals emerge that were simply not visible at the moment of original verification. Some users start with legitimate intentions but over time may become money mules or commit other types of first-party fraud.
At the same time, the rapid proliferation of AI is changing the game. Fraudsters are deploying highly sophisticated AI agents to scale their attacks using deepfakes, synthetic identities, and injection techniques (Jumio saw injection attempts increase 700% year over year).
Jumio Watch continuously analyzes identity signals to detect meaningful changes in risk long after verification is complete, with early studies showing up to a 25% increase in risk detection after initial onboarding. When new intelligence indicates that a previously approved verification may now present risk, Jumio customers are proactively alerted to investigate, allowing them to take action after the initial onboarding and verification event, and closing a major gap in traditional identity verification approaches.
"Risk evolves, and so should your identity strategy," said Bala Kumar, president and chief product and technology officer at Jumio. "With Jumio Watch, we are giving our customers something the industry has never offered: not just risk at onboarding, but also the ability to detect risk that only becomes visible over time. Decisions become dynamic instead of static as they are informed by new data, new signals, and broader context."
Jumio Watch is built on the Jumio Identity Graph. Unlike siloed point solutions, the Identity Graph continuously collects and analyzes patterns and connections from tens of millions of legitimate and fraudulent identities across businesses and industries globally — surfacing risk that no single customer environment could detect alone.
This ongoing, cross-customer intelligence is what sets Jumio Watch apart. Fraud patterns identified in one environment sharpen risk assessments across the entire platform, enabling faster, broader detection for every customer. And because the graph is anchored in verified, legitimate identity data, Jumio Watch goes beyond one-time risk assessment and provides ongoing risk assurance, as it continuously reinforces confidence in the decisions that remain sound.
Jumio Watch is designed for the teams on the front lines of identity risk — fraud investigators, compliance analysts, risk leaders, and security teams across financial services, crypto, gaming and marketplace platforms. Capabilities include:
- Post-verification flagging: Verifications that passed at onboarding are continuously reassessed, surfacing fraud that only becomes visible over time.
- Proactive risk alerts: Daily summaries notify fraud and compliance teams of new risk, enabling teams to act quickly before losses occur.
- Portfolio risk management: Continuous reassessment of the full customer base allows teams to minimize losses by acting on risky accounts while focusing growth and engagement efforts on healthy, verified customers.
- Investigation-ready portal views: Detailed alert visibility within the Jumio Portal gives investigators the context they need to assess and respond quickly.
- Flexible access controls: User-level permissions ensure the right people have visibility into alerts and investigation workflows.
"The identity verification industry has focused almost entirely on the moment of onboarding," said Philipp Pointner, chief of digital identity at Jumio. "Jumio Watch makes identity a continuous, intelligent signal powered by a global platform that gets smarter with every verification. This gives organizations the ongoing assurance they need to stay compliant, reduce fraud exposure and make more informed decisions long after day one."
Jumio Watch is available now, with additional capabilities planned throughout 2026 as Jumio continues to expand its continuous identity intelligence offerings. To learn more or schedule a demo, visit jumio.com.

KUALA LUMPUR, May 4 (Bernama) -- Modon, an Abu Dhabi-headquartered international holding company, has announced the sell-out of Tara Park on Reem Island, with the project generating nearly two billion Emirati dirham in sales. (100 Emirati dirham = RM107.65)
The development is located close to Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), reflecting strong investor demand and reinforcing the emirate’s position as a global safe-haven investment destination, according to Modon in a statement.
Modon Holding Group Chief Executive Officer, Bill O’Regan said the project demonstrates sustained market confidence.
“Tara Park further validates Modon’s disciplined, market-driven approach, connecting a prime location and thoughtful placemaking to generate sustainable urban growth and long-term value.
“We continue to see strong demand across the market, which speaks to the confidence that local and international buyers continue to place in Abu Dhabi, particularly for projects where clear attention to quality of life supports future investment potential,” he said.
Tara Park comprises six residential towers with 834 apartments across one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts that are interlinked by an active podium that connects residents to a wide range of amenities.
Connected to Reem Mall, Tara Park also offers easy access to Fay Park, Sorbonne University Abu Dhabi and Repton School, alongside proximity to Abu Dhabi’s international financial hub, ADGM, The Galleria Mall, and the wider city.

PU Prime Bridges the Gap Between Knowledge and Success with Launch of Interactive “PU Community” Platform
EBENE, Mauritius, April 30 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PU Prime, a global multi-licensed online brokerage, announced the launch of the PU Community, an all-in-one ecosystem designed to transform retail trading from a solitary, high-risk activity into a collaborative and guided professional journey. To celebrate the rollout, PU Prime is hosting a series of engagement initiatives throughout May and June, offering early-bird participants opportunities to earn exclusive rewards, branded merchandise, and trading vouchers as they begin their journey within the ecosystem.
In an era of information overload, most retail traders face a significant gap: not in access to data, but in the lack of structure, judgment, and guidance. The company's research indicates that a vast majority of retail traders struggle due to inconsistent mentorship and the absence of practical learning environments. The PU Community is built specifically to address these pain points by offering a transparent ecosystem that prioritizes risk management and disciplined growth over market hype.
“The most common challenge I see for traders today isn’t a lack of information, it’s the absence of a clear, actionable path through the noise,” said Ahmed Yousre, Global Market Strategist at PU Prime. “With the launch of PU Community, we are moving beyond static education into a space of active, guided mentorship. I’m excited to be personally involved in this initiative, where I can engage directly with members and help bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and disciplined market execution!”
Commenting on the launch, Daniel Bruce, Managing Director, said, “PU Community is where trading meets human connection. We are moving beyond the traditional brokerage model of simply acquiring customers to actively develop them." By combining human expertise with AI-driven efficiency, we aim to help users transition from reactive learners to confident, disciplined market participants, he added.
Some key highlights of the community:
- Dedicated Guided Courses: Through a series of 17 Progressive lessons, traders transition from passive spectators to active participants, equipped with their own judgment to navigate volatile markets.
- Direct Expert Access: Users gain seamless, real-time interaction with professionally certified analysts (CFA, CISI, and SCA level), allowing for direct feedback on trade ideas and market analysis.
- AI-Assisted Intelligence: The ecosystem utilizes AI to provide summaries of top news for high-interest assets, ensuring traders stay informed without being overwhelmed.
- Interactive Gamification: A dynamic leaderboard system allows users to progress from "New Trader" to "Market Legend," earning recognition and rewards based on their contributions to the community.

In an era of information overload, most retail traders face a significant gap: not in access to data, but in the lack of structure, judgment, and guidance. The company's research indicates that a vast majority of retail traders struggle due to inconsistent mentorship and the absence of practical learning environments. The PU Community is built specifically to address these pain points by offering a transparent ecosystem that prioritizes risk management and disciplined growth over market hype.
“The most common challenge I see for traders today isn’t a lack of information, it’s the absence of a clear, actionable path through the noise,” said Ahmed Yousre, Global Market Strategist at PU Prime. “With the launch of PU Community, we are moving beyond static education into a space of active, guided mentorship. I’m excited to be personally involved in this initiative, where I can engage directly with members and help bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and disciplined market execution!”
Commenting on the launch, Daniel Bruce, Managing Director, said, “PU Community is where trading meets human connection. We are moving beyond the traditional brokerage model of simply acquiring customers to actively develop them." By combining human expertise with AI-driven efficiency, we aim to help users transition from reactive learners to confident, disciplined market participants, he added.
Some key highlights of the community:
- Dedicated Guided Courses: Through a series of 17 Progressive lessons, traders transition from passive spectators to active participants, equipped with their own judgment to navigate volatile markets.
- Direct Expert Access: Users gain seamless, real-time interaction with professionally certified analysts (CFA, CISI, and SCA level), allowing for direct feedback on trade ideas and market analysis.
- AI-Assisted Intelligence: The ecosystem utilizes AI to provide summaries of top news for high-interest assets, ensuring traders stay informed without being overwhelmed.
- Interactive Gamification: A dynamic leaderboard system allows users to progress from "New Trader" to "Market Legend," earning recognition and rewards based on their contributions to the community.

Bitget Launches Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub to Strengthen the Future Web3 Workforce
VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 28 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has announced the launch of the Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub: Semester 1, a new education initiative designed to help young learners explore blockchain not only as a field of study, but as a viable career path in the digital economy.
As part of Bitget’s broader Blockchain4Youth initiative, the Learning Hub expands the program’s mission of making blockchain education more accessible and actionable for young people worldwide. Through recent initiatives such as the LALIGA Youth Tournament in Thailand, its partnership with Google Developer Group on Campus, and the Web3 Young Learners’ Encyclopedia, Blockchain4Youth has engaged more than 15,000 participants since launch, reflecting its ongoing commitment to youth development and the rising interest among students in finding clearer pathways into the Web3 industry.
The Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub combines structured learning with professional recognition and career-oriented support. Learners who complete the program and pass the assessments will receive a Certificate of Completion signed by Ignacio Aguirre Franco, Chief Marketing Officer of Bitget, giving them a credential they can present across their professional profiles.
The certificate is intended to serve as more than proof of participation. It offers verified recognition of Web3 competency and unlocks access to a broader network of opportunities. Certificate holders can benefit from priority review for opportunities at Bitget and gain entry to the Blockchain4Youth Talent Alliance, a core pillar of the program designed to connect certified learners with the wider Web3 industry. Through the alliance, participants can access priority opportunities, industry exposure, and networking channels, creating a clearer pathway between demonstrated knowledge and real-world professional roles.
As part of this effort, Bitget has confirmed a partnership with Bondex, the Web3 professional network behind web3.career, the largest job board in the industry. Through the partnership, Bitget and Bondex aim to make career entry points into Web3 more transparent and accessible for the next generation of builders and professionals
“Most young people trying to break into Web3 hit the same wall, they take a course, then have no network, no verified credentials, and no clear path to a job.” said Ignacio Palomera, Co-Founder of Bondex. “Blockchain4Youth and Bondex fix that. Finish the program, build a verified profile, be discovered in the Bondex trusted talent pool and apply directly to companies hiring on web3.career. It's the bridge the industry's been missing.
“A lot of young people are interested in Web3, but interest alone does not always show them where to begin,” said Ignacio Aguirre Franco, CMO of Bitget. “The Learning Hub is about making that first step feel more real by giving learners knowledge, recognition, and a better sense of where this path can lead. When young talent can see opportunity more clearly, they are more likely to believe they belong in the future of this industry.”
Ultimately, Blockchain4Youth Learning Hub reflects a broader commitment to building long-term infrastructure for Web3 education and talent development. More than a standalone campaign, the Learning Hub demonstrates how Blockchain4Youth is evolving into a sustained platform that supports learners as they move from discovery to skill-building, and from participation to contribution. Through this initiative, Bitget continues to position itself not only as a platform for digital assets, but also as an ecosystem builder helping shape the workforce that will define the next phase of Web3.
The B4Y Talent Alliance welcomes recruiting companies that want to connect with emerging talent, expand industry access, and create more pathways into Web3. Interested organizations can contact blockchain4youth@bitget.com.
