Airwallex Launches Yield in Singapore, Unlocking Smarter Returns After MAS Licence Approval

  • Airwallex launches Yield in Singapore, enabling businesses to earn competitive returns on their multi-currency funds
  • This follows approval from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) for Airwallex to offer regulated investment solutions under a Capital Markets Services (CMS) licence
  • Airwallex is collaborating with Fullerton Fund Management and Goldman Sachs Asset Management to manage its Yield SGD and USD solutions, respectively

SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Airwallex, a leading global fintech platform, today announced that its Singapore entity, Airwallex Capital (Singapore) Pte Ltd, has been granted a Capital Markets Services (CMS) licence by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). With this licence, Airwallex can now offer regulated investment solutions and custodial services to businesses in Singapore through its Airwallex Yield product.

Airwallex Yield is an investment fund management service that allows businesses to earn competitive returns on surplus funds held within their business1.

Through Airwallex Yield, businesses can:

  • Maximise returns on their multi-currency funds by investing in highly rated money market funds.
  • Grow their foreign currency balances without opening additional accounts.
  • Maintain liquidity, with no lock-up periods. Businesses can move funds between cash balances and Yield accounts as needed to meet their growth needs.

Airwallex Capital is collaborating with Fullerton Fund Management to manage its Singapore Dollar (SGD) investment strategy, and Goldman Sachs Asset Management for its US Dollar (USD) solution – both bringing deep institutional expertise to support customers’ needs.

Celebrating the licence, Arnold Chan, General Manager, Asia Pacific, Airwallex, said, "Launching Airwallex Yield in Singapore is a significant milestone as we continue to innovate and empower businesses here to unlock new opportunities to thrive. This is a proud moment for us, and we’re grateful to the MAS for their support and trust in our vision."

“Cash management is a crucial aspect of any business. With Airwallex Yield, we are giving businesses a simple and flexible way to grow their idle funds, empowering companies of all sizes to establish a more effective treasury function,” said Gary Harvey, Executive Director, Airwallex Capital (Singapore). “We are delighted to be working alongside our trusted asset managers, Fullerton Fund Management and Goldman Sachs Asset Management, to deliver Airwallex Yield to businesses in Singapore.”

Mark Yuen, Chief Business Development Officer, Fullerton Fund Management, said, “Our partnership with Airwallex marks an exciting business channel for Fullerton, extending our institutional-grade investment expertise to a broader base of corporates in Singapore. In today’s complex and high-cost environment, businesses should expect more from their surplus cash – access to stable, liquid SGD cash solutions that also work harder to generate yield. With over 15 years of Treasury Management experience and SGD13 billion2 under management, Fullerton is well-positioned to support Airwallex Yield in delivering smarter cash solutions to meet evolving corporate needs.”

“An evolving market environment calls for effective liquidity management strategies. As one of the leading liquidity solutions providers in the world, we look forward to working with Airwallex in Singapore to help companies optimise returns on their cash balances while maintaining liquidity to meet business needs,” said Mike Siegel, Global Head of Liquidity Solutions and Co-head of the Client Solutions Group in Asia Pacific, Goldman Sachs Asset Management.

The launch of Airwallex Yield in Singapore follows successful rollouts in Australia and Hong Kong, reinforcing Airwallex’s strategy to shape the future of global finance, empowering companies to grow faster, smarter, and on their own terms.
