The Singlife Ecosystem was built to accelerate innovation, foster collaboration, and deepen engagement across the insurance and financial services landscape. As part of this effort, Singlife launched Singlife Connect, Singapore’s first insurtech accelerator programme. The initiative supported 15 startups through 12 proof-of-concept and commercial launches, spanning both advisor-led and direct-to-consumer distribution models. The program culminated in a series of high-impact demo days, bringing together regulators, insurers, and ecosystem stakeholders from across the region to showcase new solutions and drive industry dialogue.
To further strengthen ecosystem understanding, Singlife published the ASEAN Insurtech Landscape Study in collaboration with EY. This foundational research captured the evolution of insurtech across Southeast Asia and provided strategic insights to ecosystem partners, corporates, and investors looking to navigate and contribute to the sector’s growth.
Singlife also introduced the Financial Freedom Index, a first-of-its-kind framework designed to help people in Singapore better understand and benchmark their financial journey. The index serves as an intuitive planning tool, supporting individuals in setting goals and making informed decisions on their path to financial wellbeing. Together, these initiatives reflect Singlife’s commitment to shaping a forward-looking, innovation-driven ecosystem that empowers customers and partners alike.
