Singapore Regulator to Streamline 'Single Family Office' Framework

By

The Monetary Authority of Singapore has revised its "single family office" (SFOs) framework to streamline the process for SFOs to establish operations in Singapore, according to a MAS release.

An SFO in Singapore is a privately held corporate entity set up by one "ultra-high-net-worth" family to manage assets, investments, and wealth of a single family.

The registration protocols have been simplified, effective June 15, with offices required to notify MAS of their operations through a MAS-licensed bank.

Annual reporting has been made more straightforward for SFOs, with information on total assets under management and the name of its bank.
