Frequently Asked Questions
Accredited Investor
How do I qualify as an Accredited Investor using Net Personal Assets?
To qualify as an Accredited Investor under the Net Personal Assets criterion, your total personal assets must exceed S$2,000,000.
This includes cash and savings, investment holdings (such as stocks, bonds, or unit trusts), CPF balances, and properties.
If you are including your primary residence, only up to S$1,000,000 of its net value can be counted towards the S$2,000,000 requirement. The remaining amount must come from other eligible assets.
