InstaReM - Global

InstaReM* (short for "Instant Remittance") developed a solution to provide a transparent service for overseas money transfer with close to live exchange rates. The company was incorporated in Singapore in August 2014 and is operating across Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia, India, the U.S. and Europe.

We will make it easy and simply share their story (a bit shortened of course): When Prajit Nanu, Co-Founder and CEO of InstaReM was booking a resort in Thailand, he was frustrated with the cumbersome process to transfer money overseas. He realized that international money transfers were expensive and nontransparent. Besides, paperwork and multiple touchpoints increased processing times and costs. Based on this experience he decided to change the process of international money transfers to the better - just like we did at Expatrio with the relocation process to Germany.
