Singapore wealth platform Endowus gets backing from UBS, others

It will use the funds to expand in the country and in Hong Kong.

Singapore's digital wealth platform, Endowus, has received investments from UBS, Samsung Ventures, and Singtel Innov8 to fund its expansion in the Lion City and in Hong Kong, reports Bloomberg.

UBS is putting an unspecified amount into Endowus through UBS Next, a $200 million portfolio that targets fintech.

The additional capital brings the total size of the firm’s Series A funding round to $22 million, including earlier investments from Lightspeed Venture Partners and SoftBank Ventures Asia, the report said.

Since launching its full service in late 2019, Endowus’ total amount of assets under advice has surpassed $743 million (S$1 billion), according to the company.

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.
