Marcus Cheong is the editorial lead at VCC Singapore. He oversees the site's coverage of Singapore's fund-structuring landscape — the Variable Capital Company (VCC), its governance and the practical mechanics of setting one up — and is responsible for keeping each guide consistent, sourced and current. He translates primary guidance from MAS, IRAS, ACRA and EDB into plain-English explainers for fund managers, family offices and their advisers.

How we keep guides accurate

• Every guide is dated and carries a “reviewed” stamp; figures are checked against MAS, IRAS, ACRA and EDB sources, which we cite by name.
• Where the rules changed (for example the 1 January 2025 economic-substance updates), we flag the change and the effective date rather than repeating outdated figures.
• We treat numbers as best-estimates for orientation and tell readers to confirm the current position with the regulator before acting.

What VCC Singapore is — and isn’t

VCC Singapore is an independent informational resource. We partner with MAS-licensed Capital Markets Services (CMS) fund managers to help qualified clients set up VCCs, but the site itself is not a regulator, a law firm, or a tax adviser, and nothing here is legal, tax or financial advice.
