Gov’t to inject $1.2b to fund enterprises' growth

It will introduce two new funding programmes for enterprises.

The government will inject a total of $1.2b to support enterprises' growth through two new financing instruments—the Private Credit Growth Fund (PCGF) and the Long Term Investment Fund (LTIF).

The Ministry for Trade and Industry and Enterprise Singapore will inject $1b into the PCGF which is suitable for high-growth enterprises that require nondilutive financing solutions.

More details about the fund, including the fund manager and eligibility criteria, will be announced by the third quarter of the year.

Additionally, the government will provide more than $200m for the LTIF which will make investments beyond the typical three- to seven-year term.

It is suitable for growth enterprises with longer and more complex growth trajectories that require highly patient capital. More details about the fund will be announced by the second half of the year.

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.
