   Major fix: removed an unverified "Option D" from the Global Investor Programme (GIP) description, since the program only has 3 options, not 4; the SGD 500 million assets-under-management figure actually belongs to a sub-profile under Option A, not a separate option. Also reworded Option C to correctly show SGD 200 million AUM with SGD 50 million locally-deployed as one combined requirement rather than two stacked ones.

   Before

   As of 2026, GIP applicants must select one of four investment options: Option A requires investing SGD 10 million in a new or existing business in Singapore; Option B requires investing SGD 25 million in a GIP-approved fund; Option C requires establishing a single-family office with at least SGD 200 million in assets under management; and Option D requires establishing a single-family office with SGD 500 million in assets under management with at least SGD 50 million deployed into EDB-approved local investment categories.

   After

   As of 2026, GIP applicants must select one of three investment options: Option A requires investing SGD 10 million in a new or existing business in Singapore (with a separate fast-growth founder profile available for companies valued at SGD 500 million or more and backed by reputable venture capital or private equity investors); Option B requires investing SGD 25 million in a GIP-approved fund; and Option C requires establishing a single-family office with total assets under management of at least SGD 200 million, of which at least SGD 50 million must be deployed into EDB-approved local investment categories.

   Why: The article included an unverified fourth GIP investment option ("Option D") that does not exist; the Global Investor Programme only has three options, and the SGD 500 million figure the article unverified as a separate option actually belongs to a fast-growth founder sub-profile under Option A, while Option C's SGD 200M AUM and SGD 50M locally-deployed amounts were wrongly split into two stacked requirements instead of one combined requirement.
