SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 28 June 2023 – Navigator Investment Services Ltd (“Navigator”), an integrated investment company by Singlife, today announces an exclusive collaboration with Fullerton Fund Management (“Fullerton”) to bring investors in Singapore a wider range of high-quality investment solutions.

The collaboration demonstrates Navigator’s commitment to continuously improve its product suite, to better serve investors on their wealth journey.
