Sequoia backs SG wealth management platform

StashAway, a Singapore-based wealth management platform, has raised an undisclosed amount of new funding that includes a strategic investment from Hamilton Lane.

The fundraising also saw Eight Roads, Square Peg, and Sequoia Capital come in as follow-on investors, StashAway told Tech In Asia. VentureCap Insights pegged the amount raised at US$12.6 million.

“The partnership with Hamilton Lane will give StashAway access to strategic advice on both private markets investment methodology and product development,” a StashAway spokesperson said.

StashAway was co-founded in 2016 by Michele Ferrario, former Zalora CEO; Freddy Lim, ex-Nomura global head of derivatives strategy; and Nino Ulsamer, co-founder of Divvit. The robo-advisor firm had cut 14% of its staff in June, following a restructuring.
