The Assembly Place Pursues Asset-Light Expansion Through Living-Sector Fund Investment

Singapore-based The Assembly Place (“TAP”) plans to invest up to SGD2.5 million in a living-sector investment fund targeting SGD300 million in capital commitments. The fund will be managed by ICHAM Pte Ltd (“ICHAM”), a Singapore-based multi-family office and alternative asset manager affiliated with the ICH Group. The fund will target living-sector investment opportunities in Singapore and the wider Asia-Pacific region, although specific assets, developments and investment timelines have yet to be disclosed. TAP has also been proposed as the property manager and operator of the fund’s assets, potentially generating recurring management and operating fee income without requiring direct ownership of the underlying properties. The arrangement would support TAP’s expansion through an asset-light operating model, reducing capital requirements while providing additional recurring income streams. It also aligns with the company’s broader target of expanding its operating portfolio to more than 10,000 keys by 2030.
