SINGAPORE, July 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Arta Finance, a digital family office for Accredited Investors, today announced it has received approval to launch in Singapore and plans to open its platform for Singaporean residents and others investing through Singapore later this year. The launch in Singapore follows a significant expansion of Arta’s product offering and team of industry leaders, as well as its exit from stealth in 2022 with more than S$120 million (US$90 million) from Peak XV (formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA), Ribbit, Coatue, and more than 140 tech and finance luminaries, including Eric Schmidt, Michael Miebach, and Nikesh Arora.

These institutions typically employ teams of professionals who use sophisticated financial strategies and tap into exclusive investment opportunities.

Members are also plugged into Arta’s ecosystem of financial and lifestyle professionals who help them protect and enjoy their wealth.
