Yangzijiang Financial anchors $100m fund for SG small and mid-cap firms

It will invest across stages from pre-IPO to post-listing.

Yangzijiang Financial Holding Ltd. will be the anchor investor in a $100m fund launched by ICH Asset Management to back Singapore’s small and mid-cap companies.

The fund will invest across stages from pre-IPO to post-listing, with deployment set to begin in September. Initial targets include firms in technology, healthcare, sustainability, and consumer services.

The move follows the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s $5b Equity Market Development Programme, which has allocated $1.1b to support small and mid-cap stocks.

Yangzijiang said the initiative will strengthen its investment management business and diversify income streams, whilst ICHAM will provide local market expertise.

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.
