With access to the most developed financial markets in Asia, Singapore and Hong Kong, iFAST is your gateway to create a sophisticated wealth management proposition with a wide range of currencies and products.

Fees Management
Calculation, collection and payment of advisory and trailer fees from investors and fund managers are managed by iFAST. iFAST provides clear and simple reports to you, so you can manage and regulate your business cash flows easily.
Multi-Currency Service
You can pay, receive and trade funds seamlessly across different currencies. For example, you can buy a USD-denominated fund by paying iFAST in EUR, and then switch into an RMB-denominated fund in future with our STP solution.
Efficient Fund Switching
One of our unique transactional features is to match the subscription settlement date with redemption settlement date that reduces the switch cycle by 3 to 4 days. Traditionally, a switch cycle is a simple sell followed by the buy trade. The buy trade is only created on the day that the sell proceeds are received, typically T+5/6. With this feature, a switch buy trade is simultaneously created with the switch sell trade, thus reducing the risk of manually monitoring the receipt of the sell proceeds before placing the buy trade.
