The fintech company Finda announced on October 1 that it has appointed An Junghyun, former Vice President of Nexthos, as its Chief Product Officer (CPO). This marks the first time since its founding that Finda has brought in a CPO.
According to Finda, CPO An is a fintech expert with 20 years of experience in the financial and information technology (IT) sectors, including commerce, online banks, financial platforms, and blockchain. He has gained extensive experience ranging from financial service planning and platform development, to identifying business models and managing organizations and services. He has participated in the launch of major Korean fintech services such as Naver Pay, Toss Bank, and Danggeun Pay, successfully introducing new financial products to the market.
CPO An was an original member of the Naver Pay team, involved in planning its payment service and fraud detection system (FDS). At Toss Bank, he designed key financial products including account opening, FDS, anti-money laundering (AML) solutions, and authentication systems. Later, as the head of Danggeun Pay, he drove growth by acquiring over nine million subscribers and achieving monthly transactions worth 100 billion won, as well as leading the introduction of the innovative financial service 'Danggeun Money Account.' Most recently, as Vice President of Nexthos, he led the stablecoin division and drove the expansion of the game item marketplace to 66 countries, spearheading global growth in the financial and blockchain sectors.
With CPO An's expertise, Finda plans to further enhance its product competitiveness and establish a system to innovate the entire financial experience using artificial intelligence (AI) and data. The company aims to leverage the financial data it has accumulated through its loan comparison services to significantly upgrade every stage from product discovery to execution and management.
