JPMorgan chooses Singapore for precious metals vault

To be opened during the third quarter of 2010, the precious metals vault facility will facilitate trading in gold and other valuable commodities.

According to a Reuters report, "The vaults will accommodate the trading of physically settled futures contracts on regional exchanges, exchange traded funds (ETFs) as well as physically settled financing transactions in which J.P. Morgan is involved."

The endeavour will be J.P. Morgan's first Asian precious metals vault facility.

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.
