Singapore, Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/31/2022 -- Investing in environmental, social and governance (ESG) targeted opportunities is increasingly becoming a theme in the private equity world. Singapore's Azalea, a private equity manager based in the city-state, is one of the latest to move some of its considerable expertise in this area. It comes via the launch of the Altrium Sustainability Fund, which will be investing in ESG opportunities in order to balance both private equity returns as well as positive environmental and social outcomes. It is a fund-of-funds product, which means that it can be used by institutional and other accredited investors to create an investment portfolio that delivers on the sustainability front. Azalea is the fund sponsor and also the co-seed. Aviva and financial services company Singlife have also stepped up to help establish the new sustainability fund. Each one is contributing $50 million in order to get the fund up and running and to help it start delivering on the idea of private equity as a force for good.

Responsible investing is increasingly becoming a trend in private equity but this isn't just a fad. It comes from the recognition that generating sustainable returns into the future is going to rely to a certain extent on on stable, well-governed social, environmental and economic systems.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/14/2022 -- Headcount is rising across the market in Hong Kong as China's private equity firms look to leverage new talent following the slump in private equity and mergers and acquisitions activity. This drop in fourth quarter activity in 2021 was triggered by a number of factors, from COVID rules to market dislocation and government clampdown on fast-growth industries. It means that private equity has had a fairly slow start in 2022 but that isn't likely to be the case for much longer. Now, private equity firms are on the hunt for both assets and talent and there have already been strategic statements of intent from major players in the market, particularly with respect to recruiting talent for tech /growth and cross-border investment.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/10/2022 -- As a financial technology recruiter, it has been difficult not to notice the boom that has taken place in the Australian fintech sector in recent years. In H1 2021 it was estimated that the sector hit US$890 million, a figure that represents a 60% increase on the same period in the year before. Capital is now pouring into the Australian market and this is giving organisations significant resources for expansion. And when it comes to expansion, Singapore is being targeted as one of the top markets for growth by businesses in the Australian fintech sector. 72% of Australian fintech companies responding to one survey said that they plan to expand by entering an overseas market in the next three years. Companies such as commodity digitisation and registry service Trovio have already opened an office in Singapore, planning to use it as an entry point to the rest of Southeast Asia. It looks like many more Australian fintechs won't be far behind.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/26/2022 -- Sustainable finance used to be an area of expertise that fell pretty far down the scale in terms of remuneration. However, today given the huge shift towards more environmentally-focused economies, specialists in this field are now able to command significant sums. Recent figures show that firms today are willing to considerably increase what they are willing to pay those with expertise in this area, which has meant many private equity executives have seen a rise in pay up to seven figures. Compared to 12 months previously, pay levels are up at least 50% and this is something that is likely to continue as the talent pool in this area is still relatively small. More contracts are also starting to integrate profit-sharing into employment agreements - this is just one of the changes that show just how valuable executives with this skill set are now considered to be, and the measures that firms will engage with in order to recruit competitively.

As experienced private equity recruiters, the team at Selby Jennings has watched the trend towards rising pay for sustainable finance private equity executives expand over the past year - and been able to support many talented people in terms of taking advantage of it. The firm was established in 2004 and has grown into a full-service specialist in banking and financial services recruitment, covering a broad spectrum of different fields, from experience as private equity recruiters to hiring for sales and trading, financial technology, corporate and investment banking, legal and compliance and risk management. Over the years Selby Jennings has built up a database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals and contacts at key employers across the sector. Through a combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions, the firm is able to deliver creative hiring options for businesses of all types, from agile and innovative disruptors to global names in banking and finance all over the world.

Selby Jennings are private equity recruiters with a business that is truly global in nature.

Consultants develop a deep expertise in their area of specialism, whether that is as private equity recruiters or other key fields. All are trained on an ongoing basis to ensure that standards are kept consistently high, as well as working with best-in-class recruitment technology and strategies.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/26/2022 -- Figures from the end of last year show record financial technology funding in South East Asia during 2021. Funding levels spiked more than three times in the first nine months of the year, reaching $3.5 billion, which is a record amount. About $2 billion of this can be attributed to 13 mega rounds i.e. those rounds that raise upwards of $100 million. A large volume of the interest that drove this funding was directed at either late-stage fintech firms or those in series C funding and beyond - this reflected the general tendency of investors to be more risk-averse during the pandemic. Nearly half of the region's deals can be attributed to activity in Singapore, which attracted $1.6 billion in financial technology funding, including six mega rounds. The success in the region over the past year bodes well for the 12 months to come with all the indications pointing to the sector continuing to grow in 2022.

As a financial technology recruiter with a rich history in South East Asia, the team at Selby Jennings has watched the market expand over the years, including thanks to the sharp increases in funding in 2021.

Selby Jennings is a leading specialist in this field and also has a wealth of expertise in many other areas in banking and financial services, including legal and compliance, risk management, corporate and investment banking, sales and trading and insurance and actuarial. The firm uses a combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions to create hiring options for businesses of all types and has access to a database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/21/2021 -- According to recent data from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, strong gains made by private equity funds have made a significant contribution to a 17% rise in assets managed in Singapore over the past year. In 2020 the value of assets under management in Singapore rose to S$4.7 trillion. Valuation gains and net inflows both had a part to play in the growth that has been achieved between 2020 and 2021. Private equity and venture capital together saw a significant spike with a rise of 54%, compared to the 16% that was experienced in 2019. The data reveals that Southeast Asian countries are still a key destination for investment and remain resolutely popular. In fact, this part of the region accounts for a third of the overall investments made in Asia Pacific. It wasn't good news for all sectors though as real estate experienced a drop of more than 50%.

Selby Jennings is one of the elite groups of private equity recruiters in Asia Pacific with a genuinely international reach and the ability to support a broad spectrum of clients and candidates. The firm was established in 2004 and over the intervening years has developed expertise in many different areas, including risk management, corporate and investment banking, quantitative research and trading, insurance and actuarial and financial technology. Such a broad scope of specialism is unique to a small number of private equity recruiters in this part of the world. As a result, the firm has worked with a whole range of companies, including agile start-ups and international institutions, and has built up a database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals over the years. Thanks to a combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions, the firm can cater to every hiring need.

With a reputation as one of the leading specialist private equity recruiters in the region, Selby Jennings has a robust base in Asia Pacific. The team in Singapore is also part of a 1,000 strong international workforce that is spread across key locations. In addition, as part of the Phaidon International group - which operates across six countries - the firm is the go-to recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of industry-leading enterprises. There are many different reasons why Selby Jennings has become one of Asia Pacific's leading private equity recruiters, including the emphasis that the firm puts on people. Consultants at the firm receive regular ongoing training and work with best-in-class recruitment technology and strategies. Today there are many different roles available via Selby Jennings in Singapore including Equities Quantitative Dev/Strat, VP, Equity Sales Trader, Funds Specialist, Equities Market Risk Analyst and Quantitative Developer.

"Like for many sectors, 2020 marked a defining moment for recruitment. Challenged by uncertainty, but unwavering in our commitment to our clients, we have endured through 2021 with a sense of duty to clients and candidates" commented Andrew McNeilis, Managing Director at Selby Jennings. He went on to say, "as we reflect on the challenges of virtually securing and retaining talent, we're inspired by a team who have demonstrated a remarkable ability to adapt and continue to help all our clients secure top talent on a global scale."

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/21/2021 -- As of November 2021, Singapore remains the top location in the ASEAN region in terms of the number of deals made by fintech firms. A total of USD$1.6 billion in investments was secured by Fintech firms in Singapore with almost half of the deals attributable to the city state. Indonesia took second place behind Singapore with USD$904 million in funding raised while Vietnam ranked third in the ASEAN region, raising USD$375 million after two mega rounds. The region as a whole saw a huge spike in Fintech funding this year with investment more than tripling over the figures recorded for the year before. One of the major drivers of this was investors focusing on firms they viewed as having a better chance of surviving the pandemic. However, in terms of the number of businesses being established in the Fintech sphere the numbers have slowed down somewhat, with 107 new companies set up in 2021, less than half the total for the year before.

Established in 2004, Selby Jennings is a financial technology recruiter with a broad spectrum of expertise and a finger on the pulse of the latest developments in the industry.

Selby Jennings has also established a database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals and works with talented people keen to take a career-defining next step. The firm's role as a financial technology recruiter is to make the kinds of mutually beneficial connections that drive the sector forward - a combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions ensure that these can be tailored to every need.

Selby Jennings is a leading specialist financial technology recruiter in the Asia Pacific region but that's not where the firm's expertise ends. The Singapore team is part of a worldwide workforce that numbers more than 1,000 and has unique international connections. For example, as part of the Phaidon International group - which operates across six countries - the firm is the go-to recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of industry-leading enterprises. Vital to the growth that has been achieved internationally is the strength of all local teams. The firm invests heavily in its own people, ensuring that consultants receive regular ongoing training and work with best-in-class recruitment technology and strategies. Today there are many different roles available via Selby Jennings, including Head of IT Applications, Triple A Plus Application Support Analyst [Wealth Management], Senior IT Support Analyst, Life Insurance Project Manager [Tier 1 Insurance Firm] and Sector Analyst.

"Like for many sectors, 2020 marked a defining moment for recruitment.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/18/2021 -- Fintech has had something of a bumper year on a global level - and especially in Singapore. In fact, it has been an incredibly strong year for the Singapore industry with local fintechs raising a record S$3.1b in equity funding.

This kind of progress is not necessarily new for the fintech sector, which continues to accelerate and has now seen a number of record-breaking years, despite some challenging economic conditions. And it looks like this incredible growth could be set to continue, as the third quarter of 2021 was the most impressive yet, with about S$1.9 billion raised by local fintechs. This momentum has partly been driven by a number of mega rounds and investment has been focused considerably on fintechs in the payment space, which has attracted around $1 billion.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/18/2021 -- The financial innovation of the past decade has created some incredible opportunities but also opened up a new, more complex risk landscape. Retail investments in particular have seen a large number of investment products with much more intricate risk-reward profiles. As a result of this shift, the Monetary Authority of Singapore is now taking steps to try and introduce more safeguards for these products. In particular, it has proposed changes to the classification of certain products that will mean those that are labelled as 'complex' will come with a number of new safeguards attached. The authority's complex products regime was established in 2012 and the latest move is a review of this initial structure that is designed to establish whether it is still fit for purpose. The regime is intended to give retail investors access to a broader range of products while at the same time providing more information and support on the features and risks of those that fall into the complex category.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/13/2021 -- Operations technology cyber risk is something that frequently goes unaddressed in many organisations. This is due to the fact that there have been only a few cyber-attacks that have successfully managed to undermine industrial control systems (e.g., Stuxnet in Iran). However, everything changed in 2021, particularly when ransomware hit the Colonial Pipeline in the US, resulting in a very new threat landscape when it comes to operations technology cyber risk. Now, a situation has arisen where governments and legislators, as well as those who are involved in the supply of goods and services to the public, are suddenly very aware that this risk could affect them. And that it's no longer enough to feel that this is covered by having a long list of good practice cyber security controls. Deploying additional security controls, removing operations technology's reliance on systems and designing and testing a plan to operate without the IT network for a period of time are all now going to be essential measures.

As the world of risk management evolves, Selby Jennings has been there to see how this changes the need for talent. The firm was established in 2004 and has a wealth of expertise when it comes to risk management jobs. As a leading specialist recruiter to the banking and financial services sector, the team at Selby Jennings has developed an in-depth understanding of the need for firms to be responsive when it comes to challenges - and how important the right team is to making that happen. With a database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals, many of whom are keen to take career-defining next steps in risk management jobs, the firm is well placed to make the right connections happen. As well as expertise in risk management jobs, Selby Jennings also covers a range of other key fields, including legal and compliance, sales and trading, corporate and investment banking, financial technology and investment management.

A combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions ensures that the firm is able to design options for every enterprise, from international names in finance to innovative start-ups seeking to disrupt the current market. Vital to this is the way that the internal team at Selby Jennings responds to the needs of candidates and clients. Consultants are trained on an ongoing basis and all work with best-in-class recruitment technology and strategies. Selby Jennings also has a unique global dimension that brings an essential international perspective - it is part of a workforce that numbers 1,000+internationally and also the recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of world-leading companies as part of the Phaidon International group, which operates across 6 countries. From risk management jobs to roles in financial technology and quantitative research and trading there are many opportunities available via the firm today, including Crypto Quantitative Strategy Developer, Senior Risk Manager and Platform Support Engineer.

"Like for many sectors, 2020 marked a defining moment for recruitment. Challenged by uncertainty, but unwavering in our commitment to our clients, we have endured through 2021 with a sense of duty to clients and candidates" commented Andrew McNeilis, Managing Director at Selby Jennings.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/13/2021 -- The government in Singapore has announced a range of new initiatives that are designed to boost the local stock market, help to secure a recovery from the pandemic and bring in "promising high growth companies" from around the area. Although the stock market here has previously been a favourite for REITs there hasn't been much in the way of big-ticket IPOs from the tech sector and the government is keen to start making this happen. So, the government has announced a new fund to help companies raise capital through public listing in Singapore. The first phase of the fund will begin with a $1.5 billion Singapore dollars tranche that will come from the government co-investing with state investment firm Temasek. Alongside the fund are a number of other initiatives with the same goal, including an increase in grants from the regulator to defray the cost of listings and a new fund for later stage companies.

Operating as a sales and trading recruiter since 2004, the team at Selby Jennings has seen first-hand how the local markets have evolved, and continue to do so. Over the years the team has acquired enormous insight into the market here and is now a leading specialist in hiring for banking and financial services firms. In addition to expertise as a sales and trading recruiter, Selby Jennings has also expanded into many other areas of the recruitment, including corporate and investment banking, legal and compliance, risk management, quantitative research and trading, financial technology and investment management. A combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions allows the firm to provide options for every business, from start-ups seeking to disrupt the status quo to international banking leaders. Vital to the firm's progress has been its network, which includes more than a million mid-to-senior professionals and connections at major firms across the sector.

One of the most unique parts of the Selby Jennings offering is the international dimension that the firm is able to bring to the table. The firm sits within an international workforce that numbers 1,000+ and is also the recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of world-leading companies as part of the Phaidon International group, which operates across 6 countries. This combination of deep local expertise and international reach is essential in a truly global market such as banking and financial services. Selby Jennings is a sales and trading recruiter that has also built up extensive internal human capital too. The firm invests heavily in its own people, providing ongoing training to consultants and ensuring that all work with best-in-class recruitment technology and strategies. As a sales and trading recruiter - and hiring specialist for the broader banking sector - today the firm is able to offer many opportunities, including Risk Developer, Senior Compliance Manager, FPGA Design Engineer and Junior C++ Developer.

"Like for many sectors, 2020 marked a defining moment for recruitment. Challenged by uncertainty, but unwavering in our commitment to our clients, we have endured through 2021 with a sense of duty to clients and candidates" commented Andrew McNeilis, Managing Director at Selby Jennings.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/05/2021 -- The number of cryptocurrency hacks and scams has gone into overdrive over the past year. While overall crypto-related fraud activities have been falling since 2019, recent research suggests that this is not the case in niche areas and the latest target is decentralised finance (DeFi) applications and protocols. It's these crimes (De-Fi related crimes) that continue to surge from one quarter to the next and which are proving particularly lucrative - it's estimated that criminals made around US$471 million from De-Fi related crimes between January and July 2021. De-Fi is a burgeoning area of the crypto sector and one that has been growing increasingly quickly in recent months. It is focused on making traditional financial products directly available, such as loans and trading, so that there is no need for dealings with middlemen. The basis of these products is decentralised apps that use blockchain to perform financial functions and to leverage smart contracts.

Selby Jennings is a leading specialist recruiter to the banking and financial services sector in Asia Pacific, including innovative areas such as FinTech jobs in Singapore and those working on De-Fi projects. The firm was established in 2004 and has grown to a full service team with more than 1,000 staff worldwide.

A database of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals that the firm has built up over the years ensures that the right connections can always be made.

Expertise in FinTech jobs in Singapore at Selby Jennings is reinforced by the robust heritage that the firm has within the Asia Pacific region.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/04/2021 -- A new partnership has been established between the UK and Singapore with a view to working jointly to reinforce regulatory co-operation and make green finance more of a priority. The Monetary Authority of Singapore and HM Treasury in the UK made a joint statement over the summer indicating that this collaboration was imminent. It will involve two main pillars, one of which will be focused on financial services co-operation. The second pillar will have the purpose of enhancing bilateral cyber security co-operation and investigating the best ways to share cyber related information. Other topics were also tabled for future discussions between the two countries, including green finance and carbon markets, as well as fintech and stablecoins. Underlying the agreements being put in place is a desire to focus on the similarities between the two countries' taxonomy principles and metrics for green and transitional activities.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/29/2021 -- Private debt has been a solid part of the investing landscape in the US and Europe for many years. However, it's not so well embedded in Asia Pacific where it's an asset class that is still relatively under-invested in. In recent years that has been starting to shift with around a 15% growth rate in private debt AUM per year since 2014. This is a trend that has been building for some time and one that was already forecast to continue, even before the pandemic exacerbated the funding gap in the region. As the private debt market is currently in a state of early expansion - especially compared to the US and Europe - there are some key differences, including the fact that it's currently still a fairly fragmented market and there is less competition. Given the early stages of growth, and the potential that private debt has in Asia Pacific, the next few years could see significant expansion and growth.

Established in 2004, Selby Jennings is a leading specialist recruiter for the banking and financial services sector in the Asia Pacific region. The firm is well connected and networked and always up to date with the most recent developments and insights, including the latest investment management news Singapore.

Ensuring clients are kept well informed is part of the support that the firm provides, whether that's the latest investment management news Singapore or hiring trends during a pandemic. Solving the business-critical challenge of talent is a priority at Selby Jennings and the firm takes an innovative and forward-thinking approach to streamlining the hiring process to simplify it for individuals and organisations.

Selby Jennings has a well-established presence in Asia Pacific and the team are well versed in local trends and developments, including the latest investment management news Singapore. The firm also has strong international links as part of the Phaidon International group, which makes it the go to recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of industry-leading enterprises. Consultants at the firm are developed to their full potential, receiving ongoing training and working with best-in-class recruitment strategies and technology to ensure the firm's consistently high standards are well maintained.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/30/2021 -- COVID-19 has hit Singapore like every other country around the world and the measures that have been taken to contain it over the past year have impacted the financial markets. Now, with more steps announced to handle a new rise in cases, including a cluster at Tan Tock Sen Hospital, analysts are predicting yet more change on the Singapore Bourse. Profit-taking is the trend that analysts are forecasting as a result of the new measures that are going to be put in place until 30th May. Although some selling has already begun it's thought that this is going to increasingly affect bank and transport stocks with Singapore Airlines and Sats likely to take a hit as well as retail Reits.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/28/2021 -- 2020 was not an easy year for Singapore's markets. In fact, at the end of 2020 the Straits Times Index (STI) had lost around 11.8% making it the worst performer in Asia. While this may have made many nervous at the end of last year, by the end of the first quarter of 2021 there was already good news with the STI making double digits with a 12.4% gain. Singapore is renowned for being cyclical, in that the market and the stocks within it rise and fall in alignment with economic fluctuations. Valuation in the Singapore market is one of the cheapest in the region and that has given rise to some strong mergers and acquisitions activity among listed companies. For example, the Jardine Matheson conglomerate said earlier this year that it intends to buy the 15% of Jardine Strategic that it does not yet own in order to simplify its structure. Despite a challenging 2020, the future already looks much stronger for Singapore markets this year.

Selby Jennings was established in 2004 and has become a leading investment management recruiter in the Asia Pacific region. The firm puts people at the heart of its enterprise, working with a network of more than a million mid-to-senior professionals and cultivating connections with organisations across the industry, from small, agile start-ups to large international firms. Key to Selby Jennings' growth as an investment management recruiter is the way it has nurtured its own workforce, providing ongoing training to consultants to ensure consistent service delivery and using best-in-class technology and strategies to deliver optimum results. Consultants have an extensive knowledge of the market for banking and financial services in the Asia Pacific region and an in-depth understanding of what it takes to lead the market as an investment management recruiter. This has allowed the firm to provide permanent, contract and multi-hire recruitment solutions that streamline the hiring process and provide peace of mind that talent acquisition is in safe hands.

As well as being firmly established as an investment management recruiter Selby Jennings consultants also have demonstrable expertise in many other areas of banking and financial services, including private wealth management, corporate and investment banking, financial technology and risk management. The firm's extensive local knowledge in Asia Pacific is backed by a broad international perspective - as part of the Phaidon International group the firm is the go to recruitment partner of choice to hundreds of industry-leading enterprises. Over the past 12 months in particular, the versatility and forward-thinking approach of the team has enabled clients to continue to solve the key challenge of talent despite incredibly challenging circumstances.

"Like many sectors, 2020 marked a defining moment for recruitment.
