Leo Wealth has acquired Singapore fund manager Jachin Capital for an undisclosed sum.
Jachin Capital was founded in 2014 and offers investment management services to accredited investors in Singapore.
The acquisition has been approved by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, with rebranding set to be completed in the first quarter this year.
As part of the deal, Leo Wealth has opened an office in Singapore.
“Being on the ground in Singapore pushes forward our rapid growth in Asia, enabling us to provide dedicated support for the international wealth creation and protection needs of wealthy families, high-net-worth and mass-affluent investors in southeast Asia,” said Jessica Cutrera, president of Leo Wealth. “Expanding the markets that we serve in Asia continues to be an exciting opportunity for us in 2023.”
