To economically empower millions of people through the growth of small and medium enterprises in the Philippines and the rest of South East Asia.
Small and medium enterprises are the fuel of society. They account for 41% of the GDP of South East Asian countries, they sustain the livelihoods of countless people, and provide goods and services that enhance the way we live. But behind all the good they do, there exists a constant battle against a system that doesn’t sustain them. Access is severely limited to products like credit, business accounts and payments processing, that are vital to the growth of their businesses.
First Circle is here to change that, to create a pivotal impact in the Philippine fintech revolution by making accessible financial products a reality for SMEs across the nation.
Creating symbiotic relationships with fellow advocates of SME growth.
Our partners share the fervor for our mission and recognize that what we’re doing doesn’t only change the life of a single business owner but can drastically cascade its effects to millions of people. We strive to cultivate these unique bonds so that one day, every business knows that
First Circle is here to help.
