HONG KONG and SINGAPORE, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital business solutions provider Osome and Aspire, a leading all-in-one finance platform for modern businesses, have deepened their partnership to help entrepreneurs in Singapore and Hong Kong save time and reduce repetitive financial admin.

Through Aspire's bank integration capability, businesses data extraction from bank accounts into Osome's platform is automated, enabling businesses to simplify and accelerate the reconciliation process, significantly reducing human error and closing their books with ease.
"Osome exists to give entrepreneurs back what matters most - their time," said Catherine Doherty, Head of Partnerships at Osome.
