Singapore's Variable Capital Company (VCC) structure has made it easier for family offices to manage diverse portfolios. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) offers tax incentives under the 13O and 13U schemes for qualifying offices.
To set up, families typically need $10 million SGD in assets, a local investment team, and a clear governance structure.
Beyond financial advantages, Singapore offers safety, excellent healthcare, and educational options — making it attractive for families relocating from China, India, and the Middle East.
With streamlined residency programs like the Global Investor Programme (GIP), many families use the family office as a gateway to long-term stay.
