Barclays to establish private bank booking centre in Singapore

The bank will provide quasi-institutional investment solutions.

Barclays will establish a Private Bank booking centre in Singapore, offering wealth management offerings and the ability to book assets locally to its ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) clients and global family office (GFO) clients.

The new booking centre in Singapore is expected to be operational by 2026.

Barclays said that it will bring together “a team of experienced and dedicated professionals” for the centre.

Barclays Private Bank said that it will leverage its partnership with Barclays Investment Bank to deliver “an integrated ‘one-bank’ proposition.”

The bank will provide clients with quasi-institutional investment solutions, including access to sophisticated financial products and cross-asset class offerings.

The investment in Singapore is part of Barclays' expansion in the region, said Sasha Wiggins, CEO, Barclays Private Bank and Wealth Management.“Establishing the new booking centre further strengthens our global proposition, allowing us to better serve our clients,” Wiggins said in a statement announcing the new booking centre.

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.
