“We are excited to welcome Steve to our Board of Directors,” said Rohith Murthy, CEO of MoneyHero. “PCG has been a strategic partner and investor to MoneyHero since our inception, helping us grow into the market leader across Greater Southeast Asia and take the Company public in the United States. As a C-Suite leader with PCG, Steve has a deep understanding of our business and growth strategy. Moreover, he has unparalleled knowledge and expertise in legal and financial landscapes at a global level, bringing enhanced value to our APAC-focused operations and relationships with the U.S. capital markets. This is a significant addition to our already strong Board or Directors and we are thrilled to be working closer with Steve moving forward.”
Mr. Teichman brings over three decades of senior legal, structuring, and transactional experience to MoneyHero, having spent his career working with some of the world’s largest and most prestigious law firms, advising FORTUNE 500 and U.S. publicly traded companies, and leading powerful asset managers. Prior to joining PCG, Mr. Teichman was a partner in the New York office of White & Case, LLP.

“I am honored to join the Board of Directors with MoneyHero, a business I have long admired and been a part of with PCG,” said Mr. Teichman. “MoneyHero has built an unmatched footprint throughout Greater Southeast Asia, becoming the region’s leading financial comparison platform manager and successfully diversifying into new areas with insurance brokerage and Creatory, their growing B2B brand. Through the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq last year, MoneyHero is now scaling the business with the power of U.S. capital markets behind it, enabling the Company to execute on both organic and M&A opportunities that are simply not available to peers. It is an exciting time to come into the business as a Board Director, and I look forward to contributing to MoneyHero’s growth and success for years to come.”
