    SINGAPORE'S global ranking as a wealth-management centre dropped a notch from fifth to sixth place at the end of last year, a report by Deloitte Switzerland has found.

    It was overtaken by Hong Kong, which took the fifth spot as Hong Kong recorded a 146 per cent jump in cross-border client assets between 2008 and 2014, more than any other centre.
