Leveraging Singapore’s capabilities for Asia Pacific philanthropic strategies

Singapore is at a unique juncture to solidify its role as a hub for impact-driven capital and philanthropy in the Asia-Pacific region. 

Building on its sophisticated infrastructure as a financial hub with a highly educated talent pool, Singapore offers global philanthropists and foundations an inclusive and neutral platform to drive innovative philanthropy and social investment approaches. 

Since systemic issues like climate change require joint action, another key opportunity lies in leveraging Singapore’s experience in collaboration and capacity building to achieve greater collective impact.  

This handbook was produced by the Asian Venture Philanthropy Network, in partnership with EDB’s International Organisations Programme Office. It is a guiding resource for current and new philanthropists who are looking to start or expand their giving journey from Singapore.  

Follow the step-by-step guide featured within to uncover how you can embark on your philanthropic efforts in and through Singapore – with a consolidation of incorporation and registration pathways for philanthropies. Plus, examine the success stories of three Singapore-based foundations which offer glimpses into varied philanthropic journeys and lessons on giving strategies.
