VCC Provider Directory

Providers

VCC Provider Directory

A working directory of firms commonly associated with Singapore VCC setup, administration, legal, accounting and corporate secretarial support.

VCC setup usually requires several providers: legal counsel, corporate secretary, fund administrator, tax adviser, auditor, bank, custodian and fund manager. This directory helps compare provider types and public pricing signals.

Key Points

  • Most VCC providers are quote-based.
  • Government fees are visible, while professional fees vary by scope.
  • The cheapest provider is not always the best fit for a fund vehicle.
  • Readers should compare scope, not just headline price.

How to use the directory

Use the directory to identify categories of providers and questions to ask. It should not replace a proper request for proposal process, especially for regulated, tax-sensitive or investor-facing fund launches.

What to ask each provider

Ask whether the quote includes ACRA fees, constitution, fund documents, company secretary, registered office, sub-fund registration, fund administration, audit coordination, FATCA, CRS, tax filings and investor onboarding support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do many VCC providers not publish pricing?

VCC work varies by fund strategy, sub-funds, regulatory scope, investors, tax incentive work and service provider package.

Should one firm handle everything?

End-to-end support can be efficient, but specialised legal, tax, audit and administration roles should still be clear.

Can a normal company incorporation firm set up a VCC?

Some can assist with filings, but VCCs require fund-specific knowledge and should not be treated like ordinary company incorporation.
