JP Morgan Asset Management (JPMAM), one of three asset managers chosen by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to launch fund strategies under the Equity Market Development Programme (EQDP), will allocate their share of $1.1 billion to Asian equities with a “majority allocation” to Singapore and its small- and mid-cap stocks.

Pauline Ng, JPMAM’s head of Asean equity team, emerging markets & Asia Pacific equities, says the fund is an “innovative product and the first of its kind” that will offer “high income”.

Speaking at JPMAM’s 3Q2025 outlook briefing on July 29, Ng says she will manage the fund alongside Ong Chang Qi, JPMAM’s executive director, emerging markets and Asia Pacific equities.
