Our Group Head of Corporate Development & Capital Markets Milena Naitoh sharing our Impact journey and the support that we have received from Credit Saison
For decades, financial inclusion has been about access. But lasting change demands more. It calls for transformation. In 1983, we saw a gap no one was addressing. Credit Saison Co., Ltd. became the first company in Japan to focus on women as core customers, a decision that reshaped finance and opened doors for millions. Forty years on, that same spirit defines our work across emerging markets. From India to Brazil, we've continued serving those long overlooked and measuring the success not by reach, but by what truly changes. Today, we launch our Impact Report 2025 – Dare to Transform – which builds on this foundation charting how patient capital, partnership, and purpose can turn inclusion into transformation and create systems that endure. Discover how we've dared to transform now! 👉 https://lnkd.in/gjuzTQ3R Marie Anna Bénard, Taylla Scapim, Rie Mizuno, Andressa Esteves, Deepanshu Gupta, Jatin Shrivastava, Brijesh Behera, Saison International Pte.

As lights and celebrations brighten homes across the world, we join in honoring the moment of Diwali. Wishing everyone a Happy Diwali from the Validus family. Batumbu Siam Validus #Diwali #OneValidus #Gratitude #Prosperity
It is our pleasure to announce that Siam Validus has joined Thailand's National Credit Bureau. We as a group hope to expand financial inclusion by opening broader access to credit for SMEs by empowering more entrepreneurs to grow, thrive, and contribute to the economy. #OneValidus

Our Group Head of Corporate Development & Capital Markets Milena Naitoh represented Validus Group at Saison International Pte. Ltd. Lunch & Learn session. Saison International has been a strong lending partner in our mission to address the credit gap for SMEs across the ASEAN region and recently through their Technical Assistance program we have undertaken an impact study (to be released soon) to quantify and showcase our contribution to the local economies.
At Saison International Pte. Ltd., we see ourselves as a transformative partner in driving meaningful, lasting impact. We believe that change happens faster and endures longer when we work with the right partners. Recently, our Head of Impact, Marie Anna Bénard, hosted a Lunch & Learn with our partners, Quentin Vanoekel and Meeta Misra, CFA of Helicap and Milena Naitoh of Validus Group to spotlight how Technical Assistance (TA) can turn ideas into impact. For us, TA is more than just a collection of projects. It is a strategic extension of our core pillars: Partnerships, Patience and Process. 🤝 Partnerships : It is about finding the right collaborators, building strong networks, and joining forces with committed organisations to unlock development impact. ⏳ Patience: It is about standing ready to support our partners when the timing is right and keeping the collaboration open until they are ready to embark with us on an ambitious journey towards more responsible and impactful lending practices. ⚙️ Process : It is about fostering innovation and enhancing processes for the strategic use of resources, both financial and human, to remove investment barriers and enhance ecosystems. Why it matters: – Builds resilience and operational strength in our investees – Reduces risk and maximises the impact of our lending activities – Creates a more enabling environment for inclusive finance What’s next: We are piloting TA programs with Validus and Helicap to unlock the power of tailored advisory and capacity-building initiatives across regions. This pilot will inform our long-term advisory strategy, helping us formalise processes and forge partnerships that deliver measurable, sustainable outcomes.
We’re proud to share that Milena Naitoh, our Group Head of Corporate Development & Capital Markets, has been awarded in the Rising Stars category at the Fintech65 Awards! https://lnkd.in/gnN7A3HY Fintech Nation Batumbu Siam Validus
