Singapore's wealth management landscape has a new entrant with the launch of Keenai Wealth, a platform designed by Keenai Global for accredited investors. This innovative ecosystem aims to address the long-standing issue of fragmented financial management by offering a single, unified account. The platform consolidates public markets, private funds, private credit, and insurance, providing a holistic view of an investor's portfolio.
A New Paradigm for Wealth Management
Accredited investors often manage their assets across multiple institutions, frequently resorting to spreadsheets for tracking, which obscures a complete financial picture. Keenai Wealth was built to solve this by providing a consolidated portfolio view accessible to both investors and their advisers. This unified approach ensures that all parties have a clear and comprehensive understanding of the client's financial standing.
The platform provides a segregated account for all investments, underpinned by a “tech-led, human-empowered” philosophy. It offers seamless access to a diverse range of global investment opportunities and insurance solutions. By integrating growth-focused assets with legacy preservation tools, Keenai Wealth empowers investors with institutional-grade control over their financial future.
Strategic Partnerships and Regulatory Framework
The platform's foundation is a strategic partnership with Lighthouse Canton, a Singapore-headquartered global investment institution managing over US$6 billion. This collaboration provides the necessary expertise and infrastructure to support the platform's robust offerings. All regulated activities are conducted by Lighthouse Canton, which holds a Capital Markets Services Licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
Keenai Wealth has launched with a strong ecosystem of partners, including Fullerton Fund Management. This collaboration focuses on providing SGD-denominated investment strategies, which helps clients mitigate foreign currency exposure and enhances portfolio stability. The partnership also aims to strengthen Singapore’s domestic investment environment by offering access to high-quality managed solutions.
Other key launch partners include Poni, an InsurTech firm that integrates insurance as a strategic component of legacy planning. Global financial platform Airwallex provides essential infrastructure, while Sleek offers cash management solutions for entrepreneurs. Additionally, KoverNow delivers specialized insurance for physical assets, collectively creating a comprehensive and flexible financial ecosystem for clients.
Leadership Vision and Industry Impact
Shilpi Chowdhary, Founder of Lighthouse Canton and Keenai Global, explained that traditional systems were never designed to manage wealth holistically. She stated that Keenai Wealth was built to empower investors by bringing all information together and making financial products more accessible. This vision aims to ensure a client's capital works harder across their entire financial picture.
Varun Mittal, Country Head for Singapore at Keenai Global, noted that the platform marks a significant step forward for the industry. He emphasized that modern wealth management is often unwieldy and fragmented across various asset classes and jurisdictions. Keenai Wealth's integrated ecosystem is designed to help investors navigate this complexity with greater clarity, efficiency, and insight.
The launch of Keenai Wealth represents a pivotal development for Singapore's wealthtech sector, promising a more streamlined and efficient future for accredited investors. With its integrated platform, strong regulatory backing, and a collaborative ecosystem of leading financial firms, Keenai is well-positioned to redefine wealth management. The initiative offers a more connected and holistic approach to building and preserving financial legacies.
