Ginko-AGT emerges as substantial Marco Polo shareholder

Fund sails past 5% stake threshold.

Ginko-AGT Global Growth Fund, managed by Singapore-based boutique fund manager AGT Partners, became a substantial shareholder of Marco Polo Marine after acquiring 700,100 shares for $117,980.85.

The fund’s direct interest in the offshore vessel operator rose to about 196 million shares, representing 5.006% of voting shares, according to a bourse filing.

The shares were bought through a market transaction on 2 June 2026. The notification was submitted to Marco Polo Marine on the same date.

Ginko-AGT previously held 195,244,700 shares, or a 4.988% stake, with the purchase pushing its interest past the 5% threshold for substantial shareholder disclosure.

The disclosure comes after Marco Polo Marine raised about $21m through a private share placement to fund capital expenditure and specialised vessels supporting offshore wind projects.

The company issued 144.87 million new ordinary shares at $0.145 per share, with Maybank Securities Pte. Ltd. acting as placement agent.

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.
