SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 28 June 2023 - Navigator Investment Services Ltd ("Navigator"), an integrated investment company by Singlife, today announces an exclusive collaboration with Fullerton Fund Management ("Fullerton") to bring investors in Singapore a wider range of high-quality investment solutions.



The collaboration demonstrates Navigator's commitment to continuously improve its product suite, to better serve investors on their wealth journey.

The Fullerton SGD Cash Fund is one of the largest cash funds in Singapore with total assets under management of SGD2.6 billion as at end May 2023. Its investment quality, short maturity and active cash flow management has made it a popular choice for managing liquidity among a wide range of retail, intermediary and institutional investors. The fund's strong track record since inception[1], combined with the new distribution feature for Class C, enhances its attractiveness as a cash management solution.

Jenny Sofian, Chief Executive Officer, Fullerton Fund Management, said: "We are delighted to partner with Navigator, an established investment platform with one of the largest adviser networks in Singapore. This collaboration enables us to deliver significant value to investors through a seamless integration with Navigator's comprehensive services, creating a transformative impact in the market."
