Access Restricted
This website is intended solely for Accredited Investors and Institutional Investors as defined under the Securities and Futures Act of Singapore.
Based on your response, you may not currently meet these criteria. This page exists to help you understand what that means — and what options may be available to you.
What Is an Accredited Investor?
Accredited Investor has the meaning ascribed to it under Section 4A(1)(a) of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 (Cap. 289) of Singapore.
Under the SFA, an individual qualifies as an Accredited Investor if he or she satisfies any one of the following criteria:
- net personal assets exceeding SGD 2 million(or its equivalent in a foreign currency), of which no more than SGD 1 million may be attributable to the net value of the individual’s primary residence;
- net financial assets exceeding SGD1million (or its equivalent in a foreign currency); or
- income in the preceding 12 months of not less than SGD 300,000 (or its equivalent in a foreign currency).
A corporation qualifies as an Accredited Investor if it has net assets exceeding SGD 10 million (or its equivalent in a foreign currency), determined by its most recent audited balance sheet.
Why Does This Restriction Exist?
Investment products and strategies offered by firms like Gallium Investment are typically designed for sophisticated investors who have the financial resources, knowledge, and risk tolerance to evaluate complex investment opportunities independently.
Under Singapore’s regulatory framework, certain investment products may only be offered to Accredited Investors. This framework is set out in the Securities and Futures Act 2001, which allows financial institutions to offer certain investment opportunities without the full regulatory requirements that apply to retail investors.
These requirements are intended to ensure that complex or higher-risk investment strategies are offered only to investors who are better positioned to understand and bear the associated risks, while maintaining stronger protections for retail investors.
What Can You Do?
If you believe you do qualify as an Accredited Investor but selected "I do not accept" in error, you may return to the website and review the disclaimer again.
If you are exploring investment options more broadly, we encourage you to consult a licensed financial adviser who can assess your individual circumstances and recommend suitable products. A directory of MAS-licensed financial advisers is available at mas.gov.sg.
