We are honoured to be recognised as Singapore’s Best Private Bank for UHNW clients for the fourth consecutive year. This distinction reflects the trust our clients place in us and the intentionality we bring to every relationship. For six decades, we have provided bespoke wealth management and investment advice to families in Singapore, and even longer across the region, helping our clients achieve their generational goals and legacies.
Our approach is to understand our clients’ goals across generations and to provide world-class solutions and advice. Our size and scale allow us to continually invest in the client experience, which is at the core of what we do. It’s an honour to work alongside our clients and colleagues every day, and this award highlights the focus and unwavering commitment we have to Singapore and the region.
Winners Rationale
“J.P. Morgan Private Bank has been awarded Best Private Bank – Singapore UHNW in recognition of its unparalleled ability to deliver institutional-grade solutions to the region’s most sophisticated families,” said Stephanie Li, reporter of Asian Private Banker.
“The bank’s success is anchored by its global leadership and sustained growth. As a global financial powerhouse, J.P. Morgan achieved record revenues and significant asset growth throughout 2025. This momentum is supported by a robust investment in human capital, with a substantial increase in the number of client advisors globally.
“By bridging the gap between bespoke private client service and the resources of a global leader, the bank offers a unique value proposition that scales across multiple jurisdictions. Its commitment to hybrid advice — combining AI-enhanced digital tools with high-touch expertise — ensures that UHNW clients receive cutting-edge support across both active and passive investment strategies.
“A key differentiator for the bank is its specialised Lending Solutions. Recognising that Asia’s UHNW individuals often hold complex, non-traditional assets, J.P. Morgan provides “liquidity without liquidation” through unique lending offers, including financing against restricted securities, financial sponsor interests, and passion assets such as world-class art collections, super yachts, and private aircraft. By leveraging its own history with art and global infrastructure, the bank helps families unlock capital from their most prized holdings to pursue further investments or legacy goals.
“Central to its UHNW proposition is 23 Wall, a dedicated cross-divisional team serving the world’s wealthiest families. By integrating Asset Management with the Commercial & Investment Bank, 23 Wall provides exclusive access to co-investment opportunities and bespoke business ventures.
“This ‘One Bank’ synergy allows private clients to leverage firmwide institutional capabilities for their personal and corporate balance sheets. These strengths explain why J.P. Morgan Private Bank, led in Singapore by Paul Thompson, has been recognised as the Best Private Bank for Singapore’s UHNW segment.”
