Nyca Partners announced that Stephanie Khoo has been promoted to Partner and Jasleen Kaur will be joining as a Principal. Since arriving at Nyca in 2019, Ms. Khoo has been instrumental in sourcing and signing investments in fintechs around the world, especially in insurtech, regulatory and compliance software, and payments. Ms. Kaur joins from CE Innovation Capital, venture arm of CreditEase, where she was an Investor based in San Francisco.

Ms. Khoo has been an indispensable part of Nyca since joining the firm.
