Visa, the world leader in digital payments, on August 18 unveiled Ivana Tranchini as new country manager for Cambodia, replacing Monika Chum.

Tranchini – who has focused on payments for much of her career – is a proven cross-functional leader, having spent a number of years with Visa across Singapore, Australia and New Zealand.

“I am thrilled to be given the opportunity to lead our operations in Cambodia. I look forward to working closely with our clients, fintechs and the regulator to expand the usage and acceptance of digital payments in the country.

“Importantly, I want to make sure our work benefits individuals, businesses and communities so we can uplift everyone, everywhere across Cambodia,” Tranchini said.

Visa also further demonstrated its investment and commitment to the Cambodian market by recently opening a new office in Phnom Penh.

The new office will provide greater opportunities for Visa to collaborate with its clients to develop new payment innovations and accelerate the growth of digital payments across the Kingdom. PHOTOS SUPPLIED
