The Singapore VCC

A purpose-built fund vehicle, with a regulated manager built in

The Variable Capital Company is Singapore’s corporate fund vehicle for families, institutions and professional investors. One umbrella, one registration and one audit hold as many ring-fenced sub-funds as you need — by strategy, by branch, or by generation. Conduit Asset Management structures, launches and manages VCCs as the MAS-licensed manager the statute requires.

Why the structure works
Variable capital

Shares are issued and redeemed at net asset value without shareholder approval. Capital goes in and comes out cleanly; dividends may be paid from capital, not only profits.

Statutory ring-fencing

Each sub-fund’s assets and liabilities are segregated by law. New compartments are added by filing, not by incorporating — for a new strategy, a branch of the family or the next generation.

A single filing calendar

The umbrella files one tax return, undergoes one audit and holds one certificate of residence — however many sub-funds sit beneath it. Treaty access follows Singapore tax residence.

Private register, full transparency

The register of members is not on public search, yet the structure reports under CRS and FATCA throughout. A regulated, disclosed home for a fund — not privacy engineering.

The s13O / s13U tax award

With a MAS fund-tax incentive, specified income from designated investments is exempt. Conduit carries the qualifying investment professionals the award requires, so clients need not hire in Singapore.

Two routes in

Assets are ring-fenced by law either way — what differs is who owns the infrastructure
Route A
Your own VCC umbrella

Conduit incorporates and manages a VCC in your name: your constitution and share classes, a board with your nominee, and your own tax award. Permanent infrastructure — if any provider changes, including the manager, the umbrella and its assets carry on.

Fit — multi-generational infrastructureBuild — 10–12 weeks
Route B
A sub-fund under the Conduit umbrella

Subscribe to a newly designated sub-fund inside the umbrella Conduit already operates. Board, constitution, service providers and tax award are in place; your compartment is ring-fenced, separately reported and audited within the umbrella.

Fit — a first allocation or defined strategyBuild — weeks, not months

Separation of duties is the control

The manager decides, an independent administrator values, a bank holds, an auditor checks and a board with an independent director oversees. No single party can both move the assets and mark their value.

Cash and securities sit with the custodian in the VCC’s own name. Conduit is an authorised instructor on the approver matrix — never a signatory to client money, and never in custody.
