Commitment from a Hong Kong-based, SFC-licensed, technology-driven investment manager strengthens funding capacity on Riverchain’s platform and reinforces its origination-as-a-service model.
HONG KONG, Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Riverchain International Limited (“Riverchain” or the “Company”), a Hong Kong-based fintech specialising in working capital solutions for the construction industry, today announced that it has secured a US$10 million funding commitment from dLab Asset Management (“dLab”), a technology-driven investment manager specialising in data-driven SME financing across Asia Pacific.
Riverchain Secures US$10 Million Funding Commitment from dLab Asset Management to Scale Working Capital for Construction Contractors
The commitment significantly expands the funding capacity of Riverchain’s platform as the Company continues to scale. Riverchain will originate working capital assets purpose-built for the construction sector, which dLab’s commitment will fund. This enables more contractors and subcontractors to access timely financing that is structured around the realities of project cash flow.
A partnership anchored in shared conviction
The agreement pairs Riverchain’s origination-as-a-service (OaaS) solution with an investment partner committed to long-term value creation. Riverchain sources, underwrites and services construction receivables, drawing on its proprietary technology and deep sector expertise. In turn, institutional partners such as dLab gain access to a high-quality, specialised asset class.
dLab’s strategy centres on financing SMEs through digital platforms, using data rather than company size to guide investment decisions across a diversified portfolio. Riverchain provides that platform for the construction sector. It originates and underwrites short-duration construction receivables using proprietary project and payment data, giving dLab direct access to an asset class that traditional lenders have historically underserved.
Ben Wong, Founder and CEO of Riverchain, said: “We are proud to welcome dLab as a funding partner. dLab is a sophisticated investor with a long-term perspective and a vision closely aligned with our own. The backing of a partner of this calibre is a strong endorsement of our origination-as-a-service solution, our capabilities and the opportunity ahead. This commitment enhances our capacity to support Hong Kong’s contractors as we continue to scale.”
Hiro Takaku, CEO of dLab Asset Management, said: “We believe that access to working capital should be driven by the quality of underlying business transactions, rather than the size of a company. Riverchain combines deep construction industry expertise with technology-driven origination and underwriting capabilities, making it a natural partner for dLab’s Data-Based Finance strategy. Together, we aim to channel more institutional capital into an underserved but essential sector of Hong Kong’s economy.”
