  "account": "Singapore's hedge fund decision-makers and talent pool should be nurtured and anchored, according to industry watchers, as tax advantages diminish across global financial centers. The core of the city-state's competitive advantage will lie in retaining the professionals who manage and allocate capital, rather than merely attracting it. By cultivating senior investment talent, Singapore could trigger a ripple effect, drawing investment teams and creating demand for related functions such as research, technology, risk management, legal, and compliance. This strategy could transform a higher assets under management figure into a greater number of high-value jobs and deeper local expertise.",
