IMAS, AMAOS ink MOU to strengthen cross-border cooperation

The parties will facilitate cross-border cooperation on five focal points.

The Investment Management Association of Singapore (IMAS) and the Asset Management Association of Shanghai (AMAOS) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to strengthen cross-border cooperation between Singapore and Shanghai.

The parties facilitate cross-border cooperation on five focal points:

  • Events - Lend support and participate in respective asset management events
  • Research - Engage in knowledge sharing of industry research findings
  • Communication - Exchange of market intelligence and expertise
  • Training - Development of innovative education and training materials
  • Collaboration - Explore mutually beneficial collaborations

The MOU reinforces earlier relationship-building efforts by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) with the establishment of a representative office in Shanghai in 2020.

“We have seen the growing importance of Singapore as a gateway for Chinese financial institutions seeking to raise capital and invest across Asia financial markets. This MOU ushers in a new era of collaboration between IMAS and our Chinese counterparts and could pave the way for accelerated growth for two of the largest financial centres in Asia, Shanghai, and Singapore, as well as the broader Asian market,” Carmen Wee, CEO of IMAS, said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
