That the number of single-family offices in Singapore has grown over the years is telling of Singapore's sterling reputation as a global financial centre. Single-family offices are private companies that manage investments and trusts for a single wealthy family that can include several generations and multiple households. Research has found that high-net-worth individuals seek safe harbours that are insulated from risk drivers such as economic, financial and regulatory risks, as well as provide calibrated exposure to the impact and opportunities the digital economy and technological disruption bring about. Singapore ticks off all these boxes as a global financial centre.
