Walter de Oude is the Founder of Chocolate Finance – a new way for you to save your spare cash. Forget fixed deposits, Chocolate Finance offers almost anyone, anywhere in the world great returns on their savings, without needing to jump through hoops to unlock them. It is built on the belief that people are looking for better returns on their cash, which in turn allows them to make their lives richer. Building on the success of its consumer offering, Chocolate Finance has expanded into business cash management with Chocolate Business, helping businesses put their spare corporate cash to work while keeping it easily accessible. Prior to founding Chocolate, Walter also founded Singapore Life (Singlife) in 2014 and grew that business both organically and inorganically to a value of S$3.2 billion by 2020. Following his exit from Singlife, Walter has also established Chocolate Ventures, an early-stage VC through which Walter invites investors to co-invest with him in opportunities where he feels he can add value.
