Registry Framework

Singapore M&A Registry is a registration system aimed at expanding companies’ access to global markets.

Registered corporate data is organized and structured to a consistent standard, enabling investment banks, strategic investors, and international acquirers in each country to evaluate companies under the same framework.

This system operates as follows.

Operational Process — 5 STAGES

01

Information Collection

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

02

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.

03

Information Structuring

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
  • Cash flow and financial condition
  • Business sector and industry classification (global standard)
  • Key risk factors
  • Investment review points

* Differences in information formats across countries and industries are reorganized according to globally recognized criteria.

04

Review

Structured information is subject to review by the Singapore M&A Registry, and listing is determined based on the review outcome. Only companies that pass the review are listed in the registry.

05

Listing and Review Environment

Corporate information of companies that pass the review is listed in the Singapore M&A Registry. Listed companies are provided in a format that can be reviewed by investment banks, strategic investors, and overseas companies across different countries.
