XTransfer supports global SMEs with secure and seamless cross-border payments.
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 July 2025 -In the era of global economic integration, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face both unprecedented challenges and exciting new opportunities., is empowering over 700,000 SMEs across more than 200 countries with innovative financial solutions. The company's relentless pursuit of technological advancement, especially in artificial intelligence (AI), is redefining the standards of risk control and digital transformation in the foreign trade finance industry.At the core of XTransfer's innovation is TradePilot, the first large language model (LLM) tailored for the global foreign trade financial sector. Starting development in 2023, TradePilot was designed to leverage cutting-edge AI technologies, such as multimodal information extraction, long-context processing, and AI agents, to address the unique complexities of B2B international trade.TradePilot's journey has been marked by rapid iteration and real-world validation. In June 2024, two versions of TradePilot outperformed both domestic and international LLMs, including GPT-4, in a professional knowledge assessment, winning first place. This achievement highlights not only XTransfer's technical prowess but also the rising maturity of China's AI ecosystem in mission-critical financial applications.One of the most significant applications of AI at XTransfer is in risk management, particularly anti-money laundering (AML) controls. B2B cross-border trade introduces data challenges, transactions are often fragmented, unstandardized, and partially offline, making it hard to monitor and assess risks. Traditional banks, reliant on manual AML checks, have struggled to efficiently serve SMEs due to high costs and operational inefficiencies.XTransfer's solution is a data-driven, automated AML risk control infrastructure, powered by TradePilot. By transforming unstructured business and transaction data into structured, analyzable formats, TradePilot enables precise risk prediction and real-time anomaly detection. For example, the system can flag suspicious export patterns that deviate from a country's industrial profile or automatically match buyer and seller information across various documents, such as proforma invoices and logistics papers, enhancing both compliance and operational efficiency.The results speak for themselves: what once required laborious manual intervention can now be handled at scale, allowing banks and financial institutions to serve SMEs with the same rigour and security as multinational corporations. This boosts financial inclusion and levels the playing field for smaller businesses in global trade.Beyond risk control, AI infuses every side of XTransfer's product ecosystem. The company's intelligent customer relationship management (CRM) system leverages TradePilot for enhanced semantic understanding, emotion recognition, and effective response generation. Since integrating TradePilot, XTransfer's AI-driven customer service resolution rate has soared from 13% to over 84%, dramatically improving user satisfaction and operational scale.XTransfer's CRM also features AI-powered tools such as multilingual letter writing, instant website building, and the pioneering "AI Employee" service. These innovations help SMEs with limited technical or language resources to efficiently reach global buyers, manage operations, and establish an online presence, in as little as 30 seconds. Over 10,000 foreign trade businesses have already benefited from these services, lowering the barriers to digital adoption and accelerating their international growth.XTransfer's technological architecture is built on robust, distributed computing principles, ensuring high performance and reliability. The company adheres strictly to international and regional laws regarding data privacy, employing encryption, access controls, and audit mechanisms to safeguard user data.Looking forward, XTransfer aims further to promote the adoption of its AI-powered TradePilot model, thereby accelerating the digital transformation of the B2B foreign trade finance sector.emphasises that the successful deployment of TradePilot is both a testament to XTransfer's innovation and a catalyst for smarter, safer, and more accessible global trade.As foreign trade becomes increasingly intelligent and data-driven, XTransfer stands at the forefront, empowering SMEs to explore broader markets and seize new opportunities in the evolving global economy.Hashtag: #XTransfer #AI #Tradepilot #LLM #LargeLanguageModel #Crossborder #Payment #SMEs

White House launches TikTok account amid US legal uncertainty

WASHINGTON: The White House officially launched its TikTok account on Tuesday despite ongoing legal uncertainties surrounding the Chinese-owned platform's operations in the United States. President Donald Trump continues to permit TikTok to operate despite a federal law requiring its sale or ban on national security grounds. 'America we are BACK! What's up TikTok?' read the caption on the account's inaugural post, a 27-second video clip. The new White House account garnered approximately 4,500 followers within the first hour of its launch. Trump's personal TikTok account boasts 110.1 million followers, though his last post dates back to November 5, 2024, which was Election Day. TikTok remains owned by China-based internet company ByteDance despite legislative pressures. A federal mandate requiring TikTok's divestment or prohibition was scheduled to take effect on January 19, the day before Trump's inauguration. The Republican president, whose 2024 campaign heavily utilized social media, suspended the proposed ban. Trump extended the deadline for TikTok to find a non-Chinese buyer by another 90 days in mid-June, with this extension set to expire in mid-September. While previously supporting restrictions, Trump reversed his position after believing TikTok helped secure young voter support during the November election. The platform maintains nearly two billion global users despite geopolitical tensions. Trump's official X account has 108.5 million followers, though he prefers Truth Social, which he owns and where he has 10.6 million followers. The official White House accounts on X and Instagram maintain 2.4 million and 9.3 million followers respectively. This strategic move into TikTok reflects the administration's continued adaptation to evolving digital landscapes despite regulatory challenges. - AFP

Back-to-back scams cost man RM450k

Cautionary tale: Chong speaking at a press conference about the double scam alongside Liau. — LOW LAY PHON/The Star KUALA LUMPUR: A scam victim who was desperate to seek legal help got scammed again – this time by a bogus lawyer, says Datuk Seri Michael Chong. The MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head said it all started when the victim, known as Liau, 55, joined a fake investment platform on April 10. 'He had responded to an advertisement by a so-called investment learning platform which lured him with the promise of investing in a purported China-Hong Kong Initial Public Offering (IPO),' Chong said in a press conference at Wisma MCA here yesterday. Tempted by the offer, Liau used his Employees Provident Fund and loans from family members to buy the purported shares. Chong said Liau had been pressured to continue purchasing the so-called shares every time the platform purportedly secured a new IPO, even though he could no longer afford it. In the end, he lost a total of RM390,000 and lodged a police report at the Wangsa Maju police station. Desperate, the victim turned to a 'lawyer' for help through a Facebook advertisement. The lawyer, who claimed to be based in Hong Kong, told the victim that his RM390,000 was detected at a casino in Macau and insisted that the only way to recover the money was to win it back at the online casino. Trusting the story, the victim handed over more money each time the bogus lawyer demanded it under various pretexts. 'I did not think it would be a scam, as I was too desperate to get back the money I had lost,' Liau said. In total, he ended up giving the fraudulent lawyer RM61,500. 'I never imagined I would be scammed twice,' he added. Chong said that this was not the first case involving fake lawyers. Meanwhile, MCA Publicity Bureau chairman and lawyer Chan Quin Er said that Liau was seeking assistance, and the scammer took advantage of his desperation in his bid to regain his losses.

AI reshapes, not replaces, say young Malaysians

PETALING JAYA: With concerns growing over artificial intelligence (AI) reshaping the workforce, young Malaysians say the latest technology should be viewed as an opportunity rather than a threat. Junior executive Zambri Jailani, 25, likened the advent of AI to the introduction of computers in the 1990s. 'Instead of threatening job opportunities, they became an important tool for us,' he said. Zambri said all generations should be ready to adapt to technological changes, adding that AI skills would help increase productivity and boost Malaysia's competitiveness on the global stage. For content writer Lee Zai Wen, 26, AI is already integrated into his work; however, he believes the technology is unlikely to replace his role in the foreseeable future. 'I use AI quite often to help create content, and while it does write well, the content sometimes lacks the expressive descriptions that help readers relate to it,' he said. Law student Carmen Ho, 25, said the legal sector was already experiencing the impact of AI, citing a case in the United Kingdom where a lawyer faced disciplinary action after citing fictitious cases generated by AI. 'With the rise of lawyers using AI, it is going to take more time and effort to vet documents, especially if fake cases are used,' she said. While acknowledging that AI could reduce the demand for some roles, Ho said the legal profession still requires human expertise. 'Trained eyes are still needed for legal research and identifying legal issues. Perhaps fewer lawyers will be needed with AI assisting, but legal minds are still necessary,' she said. Dr Muhammad Akmal Remli, director of the Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Big Data (AIBIG) at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan, said the priority should be to equip the local workforce with the right skills to adapt to the rapid changes brought by AI and automation. 'We must focus on reskilling and lifelong learning so workers are not left behind. In this environment, workers who know how to use AI tools will likely replace those who don't,' he said when contacted. Muhammad Akmal said that digital literacy, adaptability, problem-solving and creativity must be at the core of workforce development. He urged government, industry and education providers to collaborate in creating accessible training pathways, particularly for SMEs, rural workers and vulnerable groups. 'The goal is not just to produce more AI specialists but to ensure every worker – from retail to manufacturing – can apply digital and AI tools in their daily roles,' he said. On the jobs most exposed to disruption, he pointed to wholesale and retail, food manufacturing, global business services, electrical and electronics, and ICT, with roles such as cashiering, data entry, production line work, and basic coding or testing most at risk. He said workers in these areas must be supported through reskilling into adjacent roles – such as retail staff moving into e-commerce or logistics, or call centre staff into customer experience design. 'Workers should be trained to see AI as a co-pilot rather than a competitor. With clear transition pathways, at-risk jobs can evolve into new opportunities such as automation technicians, digital supply chain managers or sustainability specialists," he added.
