The Singapore Variable Capital Company (VCC) framework offers a modern and flexible fund structure, designed to enhance Singapore’s position as a leading asset management hub. It addresses limitations of traditional corporate fund structures by providing ease of entry and exit for investors, along with significant advantages such as investor privacy, tax exemptions, and operational efficiencies.

Key features of the VCC include its corporate legal structure, the ability to operate as standalone or umbrella funds with segregated sub-fund assets, flexible capital repatriation, and investor privacy. VCCs are also eligible for various tax incentives and treaty benefits.
