Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/03/2021 -- A partnership between Singapore's central bank and the private sector is being put in place to help develop the asset management industry in the region. The project's remit will be to look at proposals and build capacity for growth, as well as identifying trends and creating strategies to support the $4 trillion asset management industry in Singapore. Called the Singapore Funds Industry Group, the project is going to bring together all the major players in the industry in this part of the world, not just fund managers but also lawyers, tax advisors and other service providers. It's a key step that shows just how important asset management is to Singapore and which could trigger a wave of new asset management recruitment in Hong Kong and Singapore. Four working groups will be set up to drive the project, focusing on innovation and infrastructure, policy, advocacy and promotion and training.
