MAS forms group to boost Singapore fund management ecosystem

It will boost Singapore's value proposition as a fund domiciliation hub.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has partnered with the private sector to bolster Singapore’s value proposition as a full-service asset management and fund domiciliation hub.

The Singapore Funds Industry Group (SFIG) will bring together all the key players across the entire asset management value chain, including fund managers and service providers such as lawyers, tax advisors, fund administrators and directors.

It will identify emerging industry trends and formulate strategies to develop the asset management ecosystem. It will comprise four working groups (WGs): infrastructure and innovation WG, policy WG, capabilities and training WG, and promotion and advocacy WG.

The SFIG executive committee is co-chaired by Clifford Chance Singapore managing partner and head of funds and investment group Kai-Niklas Schneider, and MAS assistant managing director (development & international) Gillian Tan.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
