Family Office Discovery Series – Insights from the Inside: Managing a Family Office and Foundation in Singapore
Singapore continues to strengthen its position as a leading hub for family offices, offering the infrastructure, ecosystem, and policy support needed to scale regionally and align capital with long-term purpose. This session brought together ecosystem partners and family office leaders to explore how families are anchoring their presence in Singapore, accessing innovation opportunities, and building platforms that extend beyond investment to impact and legacy.
Representatives from the Economic Development Board shared how Singapore supports family offices as a strategic partner—facilitating connections, collaborations, and access to emerging sectors such as deep tech. The Monetary Authority of Singapore outlined initiatives to enhance the ecosystem, including developments in donor-advised funds and tax frameworks that support structured philanthropy.
Attendees also heard directly from family office principals on their journey of building purpose-driven family offices and foundations, and how Singapore’s robust and well-connected ecosystem has supported their growth, governance, and long-term ambitions.
