Registry Structure | SMAR — Singapore M&A Registry

Registry Framework

Singapore M&A Registry is a registration system operated with the objective of expanding global market access for companies.

Registered corporate information is organized and structured according to a defined standard, creating an environment in which investment banks, strategic investors, and overseas companies across different countries can review companies under the same criteria.

This system operates under the following structure.

Operational Process — 5 Stages

Information Collection

Financial and business-related data submitted by registered companies are collected. Partner accounting firms in each country verify the accuracy and completeness of the submitted data.

Valuation and Due Diligence

Certified accountants from partner accounting firms conduct valuation and due diligence on the company's revenue structure, profitability, cost composition, cash flow, and asset condition.

Based on the results of due diligence, corporate information is reconstructed according to a defined standard. The main components are as follows.

Revenue and profit structure
Cost composition & profit margin
