Singapore · GRCE Advisory & Training
Governance, risk, compliance and ethics advisory for Singapore organisations
ABMS supports Singapore-based and Singapore-facing organisations with practical advisory and training across anti-bribery, AML, whistleblowing, information security, AI governance, sustainability and ISO-based management systems — plus end-to-end Johor-Singapore SEZ expansion support.
Singapore is one of Asia's leading financial, technology and business hubs. Organisations operating in or from Singapore are expected to maintain strong governance, risk management, compliance, ethics, AML/CFT awareness, information security, responsible AI practices and board-level oversight.
ABMS helps Singapore organisations strengthen that compliance capability through advisory support, ISO implementation guidance, practical training and management-system readiness — written in plain English, positioned as an advisory and training partner, not a source of legal opinion.
MAS-related compliance awareness
Practical compliance and AML/CFT awareness for a regulated business ecosystem
Singapore's financial and business ecosystem places strong emphasis on governance, AML/CFT controls, accountability and sound internal controls. ABMS provides training and advisory relevant to regulated entities, financial-sector providers, fintechs and professional-services firms — not regulatory opinions.
- AML/CFT awareness, customer due diligence and beneficial-ownership risk
- Suspicious-transaction red flags, sanctions and screening awareness
- Anti-bribery, corruption risk assessment and whistleblowing
- Internal escalation, compliance governance and internal audit
Our Singapore advisory focus
GRCE advisory, led by the anti-bribery core
Governance, Risk & Compliance Advisory
We help Singapore organisations review and strengthen governance structures, risk registers, compliance obligations, internal controls, policies, reporting lines, and management review.

ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security
Information-security governance through risk assessment, policy and control development, awareness training, internal audit readiness and continual improvement.
ISO/IEC 42001 AI Management Systems
Governance for organisations adopting AI — accountability, risk, transparency, human oversight, responsible use, and the management-system requirements behind them.
AML/CFT Training & Awareness
Practical training on customer due diligence, suspicious-transaction indicators, beneficial-ownership risk, sanctions awareness, transaction-monitoring concepts and internal escalation.
Whistleblowing Management Systems
Reporting channels, investigation workflows, confidentiality controls, anti-retaliation safeguards, case tracking and management reporting — aligned to ISO 37002.
Sustainability & ESG Governance
Connecting sustainability commitments to governance, anti-bribery, supplier due diligence, reporting and internal control — where ESG meets real compliance discipline.
