Dr Ernie Teo, PhD, CFtP

For Dr Ernie Teo, fintech is not just a buzzword — it’s a bridge between innovation and impact. “I’ve always been interested in technology, and it’s fascinating how new tech is changing the face of finance. I look forward to innovations that can genuinely change lives.”

A recognised leader in decentralised trust infrastructure, Ernie has:✔ Launched Singapore’s first undergraduate blockchain class at NUS✔ Delivered production-grade blockchain platforms to banks✔ Led the Bachelor of Applied Computing in Finance at NTU

“We’re now beyond just raising awareness for fintech. GFI helps bring in-depth knowledge to the community — and helps professionals stay relevant.”

As a Chartered Industry Fellow with GFI, Ernie sees the CFtP programme as central to building both expertise and community.

“Being a Fellow gives me the opportunity to give back to the industry I’ve learned so much from.”

At GFI, we’re proud to count Dr Ernie Teo among our Fellows — shaping the future of fintech with both technical excellence and educational leadership.
