The new HKD portfolio is designed for money set aside for 12 months or more, with no lock-in and no minimum investment

HONG KONG, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Syfe, the Singapore-headquartered digital wealth platform managing over US$15 billion in assets across Asia-Pacific, today announced the launch of Yield+ (閒錢寶) in Hong Kong. Yield+ is an HKD portfolio with a projected net yield of 4.71% p.a*., with no lock-in and no minimum investment.

Money left idle earns little or nothing, while inflation steadily erodes what it can buy. Yield+ is designed for money investors won’t need for a year or more, targeting a projected net yield above Hong Kong’s headline inflation rate of 1.7% year on year.[1]

It sits alongside two existing products in Syfe’s Cash & Yield Management suite in Hong Kong: Cash+ Flexi, for money that may be needed at any time, and Cash+ Fixed, for money not needed until a set date.

How Yield+ works

Yield+ invests in three actively managed short-duration bond funds, each in an HKD share class: Taikang Kaitai Overseas Short Tenor Bond Fund (40%), Amundi Funds – US Short Term Bond (30%) and Aberdeen SICAV I – Short Dated Enhanced Income Fund (30%). The portfolio has an average duration of about one year.

Spreading the allocation across three managers reduces reliance on any single manager’s credit selection. Returns come from two sources. The first is the interest the bonds pay, which builds up daily whether prices rise or fall. The second is changes in bond prices, which move in the opposite direction to interest rates.

A higher projected yield for a longer holding period

Yield+ targets a higher yield than Cash+ Flexi. In return, its value moves with interest rates and credit spreads, and it can fall. With a duration of about one year, a rise in interest rates would have a relatively limited effect on the portfolio’s value, and the interest it earns may help offset losses over time. If rates fall, rising bond prices could add to returns. That is why Yield+ is designed for a holding period of 12 months or more.

Ritesh Ganeriwal, MD and Group Head of Investment & Advisory at Syfe, said:

“Every dollar in a portfolio has a job. ‘Now’ money covers day-to-day needs. ‘Later’ money funds retirement and other long-term goals. In between sits ‘soon’ money: a renovation, a wedding or a down payment a year or two away. Left idle, that money quietly shrinks due to inflation. Reaching for longer-dated bonds can earn more, but brings price swings that short-term investors may not be ready for. Yield+ bridges that gap by keeping duration to about one year, for money that can be left invested for 12 months or more.”

Yield+ is available to Syfe clients in Hong Kong: https://www.syfe.com/en-hk/cash-management

Suturing workshop

LUBBOCK, Texas, Oct. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dr. Thanapoom “Mo” Boonipat, plastic surgeon and founder of FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute in Lubbock, led a hands-on suturing workshop and career Q&A session for premed students at Texas Tech University. The event was organized by Women in STEM at Texas Tech University.

During the workshop, students practiced suturing fundamentals on suture pads using surgical instruments, with Dr. Boonipat demonstrating technique and coaching students individually. The session also included an open discussion about the path to a career in medicine, including medical school, residency training, and choosing a surgical specialty.

“Every surgeon remembers the first time they held a needle driver. Giving premed students that experience early — along with honest answers about the road ahead — can make the path into medicine feel real and reachable. I was glad to spend the afternoon with such motivated students.” — Dr. Thanapoom Boonipat

“Organizations like Women in STEM do important work connecting young women with mentors and hands-on experience in fields where they are still underrepresented, including surgery. FacePlus is proud to support that effort here in our own community in Lubbock.” — Dr. Thanapoom Boonipat

Women in STEM is a Texas Tech University student organization that supports women pursuing undergraduate and graduate studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Events like this connect students with practicing professionals and give them early, practical exposure to clinical skills.

Dr. Boonipat is a plastic and craniofacial surgeon. His training includes an integrated plastic surgery residency at Mayo Clinic and a craniofacial, maxillofacial, and facial aesthetics fellowship at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan, following medical school at Dartmouth and undergraduate study in biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins. He founded FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute in Lubbock in 2024.
