  • Who is eligible for PSG GRANT?
    Registered and operating in Singapore Purchase/lease/subscription of the IT solutions or equipment must be used in Singapore Have a minimum of 30% local shareholding; with Company’s Group annual sales turnover less than S$100 million, OR less than 200 employees (for selected solutions only)
  • The grant covers 50% of the costs. Does this mean i only need to pay ACE half the price upfront?
    Regrettably, that is not the case. It is a prerequisite to remit 100% of the project fee to ACE upon the culmination of the project. Following the full settlement, your company is then eligible to apply for the 50% reimbursement through the PSG grant. This reimbursement procedure usually spans a duration of 1 to 2 months. Hence, we kindly advise enterprises to plan their financial resources judiciously to accommodate this payment structure. It is in the best interest of ensuring a fluent transaction process.
  • How do i check if i am eligible for Singapore's SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit(SFEC)?
    During the recent 2022 Budget announcement, Finance Minister Lawrence Wong said that more companies will be able to benefit from the SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC) scheme, thanks to relaxed requirements. Here's what SMEs need to know: If your SME meets the new, easier-to-meet criteria during the specific qualifying time, it can get a one-time credit of up to $10,000 from the SFEC scheme. This $10,000 should be seen as a special fund to help you improve your business and train your team at the same time. You can use up to $7,000 of this fund to help pay for approved business growth programs, including the PSG. This can cover up to 90% of the extra costs that you'll incur in these programs. At least $3,000 of the fund should be set aside to enhance the skills and capabilities of your workforce. We hope this helps your SME take full advantage of the extended SFEC scheme to grow both your business and your team.
