Grab Buys Investment App Stash At $425 Million Valuation After Posting First Full-Year Profit

Grab acquired AI-powered investment platform Stash for $425 million in February 2026, marking its first major fintech expansion after reporting its first full-year profit. Stash manages $5 billion in assets with over 1 million paying subscribers, offering Grab a turnkey solution to integrate wealth management into its superapp ecosystem. The deal accelerates Grab’s push beyond ride-hailing and food delivery into digital banking, payments, and lending—key growth areas in Southeast Asia’s booming fintech sector. Stash’s AI-driven tools will enhance Grab’s financial services, leveraging data from its 200+ million users to personalize investment options and boost engagement. This acquisition aligns with Grab’s strategy to dominate regional fintech by bundling services, reducing customer acquisition costs, and increasing lifetime value.
