Maya is reportedly considering an initial public offering (IPO) in the United States that could raise between US$500 million and US$1 billion.

While the company has declined to confirm these reports, citing them as market speculation, it maintains that its current priority is scaling its ecosystem for consumers and businesses in the Philippines.

The fintech firm, which serves as the financial technology arm of PLDT Inc., operates as a licensed digital bank under the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.

Since transitioning from its origins as an e-wallet, Maya has developed into an integrated financial system offering savings, loans, merchant services, and cryptocurrency trading.

Financially, the company has shown consistent growth. In the third quarter of 2025, Maya recorded its third consecutive profitable quarter with a net income of PHP 532 million.

Deposit balances rose to PHP 57 billion, a 59% increase year-on-year, while total loan disbursements reached PHP 187 billion since the bank’s launch.

The platform currently supports nine million bank users and 2.4 million borrowers.

A potential listing in the US would provide Maya with access to deeper capital pools and a broader base of institutional investors compared to the local market.

For now, the company emphasises its stable financial position, stating, “We also continue to benefit from strong shareholder support and remain well capitalised to execute our growth plans”.

FCA, crackdown on crypto

The post FCA, crackdown on crypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The regulation of cryptocurrencies in the United Kingdom enters a decisive phase. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has initiated a consultation to set minimum standards on transparency, consumer protection, and digital custody, in order to strengthen market confidence and ensure safer operations for exchanges, wallets, and crypto service providers. The consultation was published on May 2, 2025, and opened a public discussion on operational responsibilities and safeguarding requirements for digital assets (CoinDesk). The goal is to make the rules clearer without hindering the sector’s evolution.

Industry analysts note that many responses require technical clarifications on multi-sig, asset segregation, and recovery protocols, as well as proposals to scale obligations based on the size of the operator. FCA Consultation: What’s on the Table The consultation document clarifies how to apply rules inspired by traditional finance to the crypto perimeter, balancing innovation, market integrity, and user protection. In this context, the goal is to introduce minimum standards for all firms under the supervision of the FCA, an essential step for a more transparent and secure sector, with measurable benefits for users. The proposed pillars Obligations towards consumers: assessment on the extension of the Consumer Duty – a requirement that mandates companies to provide “good outcomes” – to crypto services, with outcomes for users that are traceable and verifiable. Operational resilience: introduction of continuity requirements, incident response plans, and periodic testing to ensure the operational stability of platforms even in adverse scenarios.

Custody and safeguarding: definition of operational methods for the segregation of client assets, secure…
