Oct 2025Undisclosed stageIlluminate Financial (lead); Citi Ventures; Prosus Ventures$70MEndowus, a Singapore- and Hong Kong-based digital wealth platform, closed a US$70 million funding round on October 22, 2025, led by Illuminate Financial with participation from existing investors Prosus Ventures, Citi Ventures, and leading Asian family offices. The round supports scaling its regional wealth technology leadership amid record growth, with client assets surpassing US$10 billion (S$13 billion). Singapore and Hong Kong markets drove substantial expansion, including over 150% growth in Hong Kong client numbers and 3x increase in client assets year-over-year. The company has delivered more than US$1 billion (S$1.3 billion) in net investment gains for clients. Endowus offers diversified portfolios including flagship equity, fixed income, cash-smart, stable income, higher income, and future income options, which showed positive performance throughout 2025. For instance, the Core Flagship 100% Equity Portfolio rose 3.0% in Q4 2025, aligning with global equities benchmarks, while income portfolios like Stable Income (6% total return for 2025), Higher Income (payout target revised to 5-6% in September 2025), and Future Income (1.5% Q4 gain, 8.2% full-year) outperformed benchmarks. Alternative investments, including private markets and hedge funds accessed at institutional costs without commissions, grew over 3x in the past year to exceed US$500 million (S$650 million). The funding underscores investor confidence in Endowus' conflict-free advice model and its position in Asian WealthTech. Portfolio reviews highlight strong fixed income and emerging markets exposure contributing to outperformance amid global rate cuts and market rallies in 2025.

It operates primarily in Singapore and Hong Kong, serving over 100,000 clients with group assets under management surpassing $5 billion as of the August 2023 funding announcement. The company monetizes solely through advisory fees with 100% trailer fee rebates via cashbacks, positioning itself as the largest independent digital wealth manager in the region. On August 8-9, 2023, Endowus raised $35 million (S$35 million or US$27 million) in a growth funding round, bringing its total funding to around $95 million including an earlier S$32 million earlier in 2023. New investors included Citi Ventures, MUFG Innovation Partners, and four Asian wealthy families; returning participants were EDBI, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Prosus Ventures, Singtel Innov8, UBS Next/UBS Fund Management, and employees. Funds aim to scale operations in Singapore and Hong Kong, expand into personalization using AI, double headcount, enhance technology, and target Greater Bay Area potential. Amid fintech funding slowdown and market challenges, Endowus reported strong traction: 80% organic revenue growth in 2022, group revenue tripling after acquiring multi-family office Carret Private, and record-breaking peak assets and revenue every quarter through Q2 2023. It launched services like passive index funds and Endowus Private Wealth, achieving assets under advice over S$1.5 billion within two years of full launch. Investors highlighted Endowus' market leadership, fee-only model, and potential in Asia-Pacific's $218 trillion wealth market per McKinsey. CEO Gregory Van and Chairman Samuel Rhee emphasized long-term strategy for retirement adequacy and digital transformation of wealth management.

This round brought the company's total funding that year to S$67 million (about US$49-50 million), following a S$23 million Series A in July 2021 led by Lightspeed and SoftBank Ventures Asia. The funds were intended to accelerate growth in key Asian markets, particularly Singapore and Hong Kong, enhance product offerings, and develop its technology platform. Endowus positions itself as a next-generation wealth platform democratizing access to low-cost, transparent investment solutions, including multi-asset ESG portfolios launched in March 2021 and an enhanced fee-only Fund Smart platform in September 2021 offering over 100 unit trusts at 0.3% per annum with no sales charges. At the time, the company reported strong product-market fit, with assets growing by over S$1 billion in 2021 alone. The investor lineup underscores Endowus' appeal in the WealthTech sector, with EDBI marking its first investment in the space, citing Singapore's thriving fintech scene. Subsequent developments include later funding rounds, such as a 2025 raise led by Illuminate Financial bringing total funding over US$130 million, amid client assets surpassing US$10 billion and growth in alternatives like hedge funds and private markets crossing US$500 million.
