Shawn Ang, portfolio manager for FSGV, says the timing reflects a structurally stronger phase for Singapore equities. Singapore stocks, as measured by the Straits Times Index (STI), have gained more than 20% last year and thus far this year, as earnings have exceeded expectations. “We expect earnings growth closer to 10% in 2026, compared to consensus at around 6%,” he says.
Fullerton Fund Management has launched the Fullerton Singapore Value-Up (FSGV) fund, the first retail equity fund to debut under the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Equity Market Development Programme (EQDP).
The fund invests exclusively in securities listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) across large-, mid- and small-cap stocks, including initial public offerings (IPOs) and secondary listings. The fund aims to outperform the FTSE Straits Times All-Share Total Return Index through active, high-conviction stock selection.
