    SINGAPORE as a wealth centre is gaining ground at a surer pace, capturing the rise of South-east Asia's new companies and more family offices setting up in the region, said a top executive from UBS on Wednesday.

    It comes as UBS Asia Pacific hit a record high in the first quarter of 2021, with pre-tax profit up 21 per cent to US$900 million.
