Singapore is the major financial center of the ASEAN region and an important location for enterprises and financial institutions doing business there. The ASEAN countries include Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam, where DEG has been active for many years. Further member states are Laos and Cambodia – future markets, in which DEG as a development finance institution identifies a huge potential for entrepreneurial initiative and investment.

From Singapore as a gateway to Asia, investors benefit from the office’s well-established network in the region. Our team collaborates closely with institutions such as the German Chambers of Commerce, other Development Finance Institutions, and multinational financial institutions, as well as the KfW and KfW IPEX-Bank Singapore Branch. This strong network enables us to provide our clients with a comprehensive one-stop service, particularly for larger investments.
