RQAM cites MBFC's role as Singapore's business and financial hub

The Marina Bay Financial Centre plays a vital role in advancing Singapore’s growth as a global business and financial hub, says chief executive of Raffles Quay Asset Management, Wilson Kwong.

 

Kwong said this was due to its strategic location at the Marina Bay area, seamless connectivity to major transport nodes and stellar list of local and multinational tenants.

"Today's ceremony is especially significant as we celebrate not just the topping out of Tower 3, but also the completion of all three prime Grade A office towers within MBFC.

"It is also significant that this milestone coincides with RQAM’s 10th anniversary, underscoring the achievements and progress our joint venture partners have made in Singapore -- a market they are strongly committed to," he said in his address at the topping-out ceremony of MBFC's Tower 3 here Wednesday.

The ceremony, which marked third and final office tower, was officiated by Teo Chee Hean, Deputy Prime Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs.

Earlier, DBS chairman Peter Seah said today marked yet another historic moment for the bank.

"As the largest bank in Singapore and a leading bank in Asia, DBS has been synonymous with the region's growth," he said. "Our new headquarters and flagship branch at MBFC Tower 3 will further cement the Marina Bay area as Singapore's new financial centre," he added.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
