Source: https://www.mas.gov.sgMAS has put in place a robust licensing process to ensure that only firms that are fit and proper and who are able to put in place the proper safeguards and controls are allowed to operate in Singapore.
Refer to MAS' Guidelines on Fit and Proper Criteria for more information.
For licensed entities, the existing tools that MAS uses to regulate other financial institutions, such as on-site inspections and off-site reviews, continue to be used. As in other sectors, a risk-based supervision approach is applied to allocate our resources according to the risks presented.
MAS will be increasing the amount of resources dedicated to supervising this sector as a whole, and will leverage supervisory technology solutions where relevant to enhance its surveillance capabilities.
