SINGAPORE, Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- 01F Group through its growth-stage fintech private equity arm, 01Fintech, today announced its investment in DANA, Indonesia's leading digital financial platform. The investment reflects 01F Group's commitment to supporting resilient, locally rooted technology infrastructure that advances financial inclusion and supports Indonesia's real economy. It also strengthens the Group's presence in Asia's fintech sector and reflects its conviction that Indonesia remains one of the region's most dynamic digital-payments markets, underpinned by high digital adoption, a large consumer base and growing demand for technology-enabled financial services.
As Southeast Asia's largest digital economy evolves, digital payments have become an essential part of everyday commerce for consumers and small businesses. Indonesia's digital economy continues to expand rapidly, with digital payments projected to approach USD1 trillion by 2030.
DANA is a leading Indonesian digital e-wallet and digital financial services platform that serves consumers, merchants and financial institutions through a single, integrated ecosystem. Its scale and reach underscore the strength of its platform, including metropolitan and non-metropolitan regions and supports millions of users and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), especially across Tier 2 to Tier 4 regions.
01F Group invests in category-defining platforms distinguished by sustainable unit economics, strong local execution, and meaningful utility for the communities they serve. Through this partnership, 01F Group leverages 01Fintech's sector expertise and regional network to support DANA's continued growth and the expansion of its financial-services offering.
Kenny Man, Founder and Managing Partner of 01F Group, stated:
"Our investment in DANA is grounded in three core convictions: the platform's exceptional operational discipline, its essential role in empowering local MSMEs, and the team's unwavering resilience. We are not just capital providers; we look forward to being a long-term partner to DANA as it continues to strengthen Indonesia's digital financial infrastructure and broaden access to trusted financial services."
Vince Iswara, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder of DANA, said:
"We are pleased to welcome 01Fintech to DANA's journey. Beyond capital, 01Fintech brings specialized fintech expertise, strategic regional connectivity, and a shared commitment to sustainable growth. Together, we remain focused on strengthening our core platform, supporting everyday merchants, and providing trusted financial tools to communities across Indonesia."

The investment strengthens 01F Group's footprint in the regional fintech value chain. 01Fintech and DANA will explore opportunities to create value across the broader ecosystem, including:
- Expand Credit & Capital Access: Connect MSMEs on the DANA platform with scalable lending and working capital solutions.
