the friction out of the everyday transactions in Malaysia, bringing greater ease and convenience to consumers,\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>said Yen Ting Chiam, Country Manager for Wise Malaysia.<\/p>\n<p>Direct access to domestic payment systems reduces Wise\u2019s reliance on intermediaries and can improve costs and transaction speeds.<\/p>\n<p>The company currently processes 77% of all transfers within 20 seconds, twice the proportion recorded five years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Banks and financial institutions using the Wise API will also be able to verify recipient names when setting up MYR transfers.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Featured image: Edited by Fintech News Malaysia, based on image by\u00a0<a
