Singapore ratifies international tax agreement with 91 other states

It’s a bid to combat cross-border tax evasion.

Singapore is bearing down on cross-border tax evasion as it deposited its instrument of ratification for the Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance in Tax Matters.

According to an announcement by the Ministry of Finance (MOF), the multilateral agreement enhances Singapore’s international tax cooperation framework. Besides Singapore, 91 other jurisdictions—including all G20 countries, most OECD countries and major financial centres like Luxembourg and Switzerland—have signed the convention.

“Ratifying the Convention will expand Singapore’s network of partners for exchange of information on request by 34 jurisdictions. This is part of a series of changes that Singapore has made in recent years to combat cross-border tax evasion, following Singapore’s adoption of the internationally agreed standard for exchange of information on request in 2009,” stated MOF.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
