You’re raising or deploying capital in Singapore. The terms you accept now set what the next round is able to look like.
Information, not advice
This page is information, not legal advice about your matter. A retainer begins only when a lawyer confirms it.
Start here
Look past the valuation at the terms that follow you
Preference, consent rights and drag mechanics shape every round after this one, and Singapore vehicles are common for regional holding structures.
What to work through, in order
The terms that compound
Rounds commonly use the Venture Capital Investment Model Agreements as a starting point. Preference, anti-dilution and consent matters are the negotiated terms.
Founder and employee equity
Employee share option schemes attract tax on exercise, with the Equity Remuneration Incentive Scheme available in defined cases. Vesting terms are contractual.
Investor eligibility and incentives
Accredited and institutional investor exemptions under the Securities and Futures Act govern who may be approached without a prospectus, and opt-in requirements apply.
