Verification note

Confirmed on the MAS register as BUTTERFIELD TRUST (ASIA) LIMITED (Licensed Trust Company). Two independent hard keys. (1) Website/domain: the FID record prints "http://www.sg.butterfieldgroup.com", whose registrable domain butterfieldgroup.com equals the broker's mainWebsite domain (https://www.butterfieldgroup.com); sg. is that group's Singapore country subdomain. (2) Exact corporates[] name plus jurisdiction: the register title "BUTTERFIELD TRUST (ASIA) LIMITED" equals our DB entry "Butterfield Trust (Asia) Limited" character-for-character ignoring case and punctuation, and that entry's country of incorporation is Singapore, which is this register's own jurisdiction; the detail page independently prints "Incorporated in Singapore". No number key was available: this register prints no licence number, no company registration number and no UEN anywhere, and offers no way to search by one, so our DB's registration number 201719034R could not be checked against it.

Most Popular Questions
Butterfield holds this MAS licence. A licence on record means the authority published an entry; it is not an endorsement.
We located this entry on the MAS register. Note that confirming a register ENTRY is not the same as confirming a live licence — the register’s own wording on this page is what states its current standing.
