Member Spotlight: Marie Claire Lim Moore

 Welcome to the next edition of our new member spotlight series! We’ll be regularly cycling through our thematic committees and asking our co-chairs to nominate active contributors. Selected members are invited to introduce themselves and their sector expertise to the wider community. 

In this edition, we’re excited to present Marie Claire Lim Moore, Chairman and CEO as an invaluable contributor to FTAHK’s Digital Banking & Payments member network.

Claire is the Chairman and CEO of TransUnion Hong Kong. She has a long, distinguished career bridging the financial world with emerging innovations in data science and technology. With roles spanning geographies, including New York, Singapore and Greater China, she joined TransUnion from Visa where she was Head of Consulting and Analytics for Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Prior to this she spent 15 years with Citi in various senior level positions throughout the consumer bank. Claire is also a best-selling author and passionate advocate of women’s leadership and empowerment. She serves on the Board of Directors of Habitat for Humanity Hong Kong and Splash Foundation Limited.

For those who don’t know, what is TransUnion’s mission?

As a global information and insights company, TransUnion makes trust possible in the modern economy. We do this by providing an actionable picture of each person so they’re reliably represented in the marketplace. As a result, businesses and consumers can transact with confidence and achieve great things. We call this Information for Good®.

Where can our members find you within the FTAHK community?

I’m always thinking about how to maximize the value of TransUnion’s 40 years of global expertise, as well as its local experience as Hong Kong’s long-standing credit bureau, to support financial customers amidst major shifts in the market. That includes looking ahead to the post-pandemic economy and upcoming, brand-new multiple credit reference agency (MCRA) regulatory framework. Because these changes will have far-reaching impacts for consumers, we’re developing new and enhancing existing solutions and services to empower them and increase credit inclusion so they can benefit the most.

What is the biggest trend in your field for 2022?

Right now, the MCRA is the most prominent subject in Hong Kong’s lending industry, and according to the regulator, it will be in play by the end of 2022. Currently, TransUnion is supporting customers to ensure a smooth transition with new systems and processes.

What is the biggest benefit your firm has received by being a member of FTAHK?

FTAHK is a great platform to connect with potentially all the FinTech players (big or small) in Hong Kong, so it’s important TransUnion be part of the team and draw inspiration from each other.

What business partners are you looking to collaborate with?.

Data, fraud, identity proofing, onboarding… you name it. As an insights and information company playing a pivotal role in Hong Kong’s financial ecosystem, our powerful credit insights, solutions and services have been supporting the lending industry for decades. We’re always striving to innovate to best serve consumers and lenders.
