Ownership disclosure

Who operates this site

vccguide.sg is operated by JCube Capital Partners (JCP), a fund manager licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) under Capital Markets Services Licence No. CMS100895. JCP funds and maintains the site as a discreet advertiser and referral partner — not as a marketing channel for its own services.

What that means in practice

  • Editorial body text contains zero JCP mentions. JCP appears only in clearly disclosed call-to-action blocks, the Service Provider Directory, and this About section.
  • In the Service Provider Directory, JCP is listed alongside competing licensed managers with identical formatting. There are no paid badges, featured rankings, or preferential ordering.
  • The cost calculator's results offer three clearly labelled, equal-weight options: request a proposal handled by JCP, contact JCP directly, or use MAS's public Financial Institutions Directory to find and compare other licensed managers independently. Requests are handled by JCP; there is no multi-manager quote fan-out.
  • Content is published under the institutional VCCGuide Editorialbyline and reviewed at firm level by JCP's fund management team, whose MAS licence is verifiable in the MAS Financial Institutions Directory.

Commercial relationships

JCP may receive compensation when a reader contacts JCP through a disclosed call-to-action and ultimately engages JCP for fund management or related services. JCP does not receive compensation for traffic referred to other directory members.

Why disclose openly

Singapore's VCC market is small and well-informed. Pretending to be neutral when an MAS-licensed manager underwrites the work would be obvious and corrosive. The model here follows the pattern set by independent consumer-reference sites like Wirecutter and NerdWallet: editorial integrity is the asset; commercial relationships are disclosed in service of that integrity.
