Backing FundPark to help digital SMEs scale beyond borders

Before launching his fintech company FundPark, co-founder and CEO Anson Suen was an e-commerce entrepreneur. Despite the strong sales, he faced persistent challenges in accessing working capital to scale his business. Wondering how many other promising businesses were left behind, he founded FundPark to support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) facing similar hurdles.

Today, FundPark utilises AI-enabled analysis of real-time sales, inventory and payment data to accelerate funding decisions, cutting approval times from weeks to seconds. The platform has facilitated over USD6 billion in funding for more than 32,000 e-commerce shops across different regions and markets, including nearly USD3 billion in 2025.

To help FundPark scale further, HSBC provided the company with an asset-backed securitisation facility of up to USD200 million. This reflects HSBC’s ongoing commitment in supporting the innovation economy, enabling the platform to back more SME e-commerce entrepreneurs in the Greater Bay Area.

Carolyn Chen, Managing Director and Head of Investor Coverage at HSBC Innovation Banking, describes the collaboration with FundPark as their commitment to backing the next generation of entrepreneurs. “Innovation starts small, and so does big impact,” she says. “We support the scaling of innovative businesses with the potential to change the future.”

Launched in Hong Kong in June 2023, HSBC Innovation Banking provides a globally scaled platform, market specialist services and comprehensive financing solutions for the fast-growing innovation ecosystem in Hong Kong and beyond. Its investment coverage team collaborates with over 900 innovation finance experts worldwide and manages nearly USD1 trillion in assets, helping connect founders with the right resources, expertise and global networks they need to grow.

“We know these investors—their strategies, focus areas and what is shifting in the market. This allows us to identify opportunities and forge partnerships that help founders in Hong Kong scale globally, even in challenging times,” Carolyn explains.

These global connections are helping to fuel FundPark’s expansion across Asia and the world. Besides funding, Anson positions his company as a growth partner to digital entrepreneurs, helping them scale with predictive insights drawn from their sales and inventory data.

“Our vision is to build a global community; a space where entrepreneurs can share knowledge, access resources and grow with confidence,” Anson, who was recognised as a Tatler Gen.T Leader of Tomorrow 2025, says. “We will be the company that makes scaling smarter, faster and fairer for everyone.”

Carolyn echoes Anson’s vision to remove barriers for entrepreneurs: “It’s all about the network, the services and the funding we provide. Our goal is to help founders seize every opportunity, so they can focus on what matters most: building something extraordinary.”

By standing behind visionaries like FundPark, HSBC Innovation Banking is empowering pioneering companies to shape the future.
