Expanding Wealth Management Solutions Across SEA and Beyond Mancano and Associates Joins FasterCapital's LaunchUp Program
Singapore-based Mancano And Associates Pte Ltd has officially joined FasterCapital’s LaunchUp program to accelerate its growth and broaden its footprint in the global Family Office space. The company, led by Managing Director Michael John Mancano, is seeking to raise $120,000 to scale its Boutique Family Office operations, investment infrastructure, and market reach across Southeast Asia, North America, and the MENA region.
Established in 1998 as a retainer-based Executive Search firm focused on the Banking and Financial Services sector, Mancano And Associates has evolved into a sophisticated player in wealth preservation and tax-advantaged investment structuring. The firm’s core services now include discretionary portfolio management and real estate-based investment vehicles, offering returns of 8–10% per annum, with a 3–5 year buyback and monthly rental guarantees. These include luxury resort villas, boutique hotels, and conservation properties across strategic locations such as Singapore, Bali, and Thailand, as well as emerging markets in Colombia, Canada, and Sweden.
Commenting on the partnership, Hesham Zreik, CEO of FasterCapital, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Mancano And Associates into the LaunchUp program. Their tailored and tax-efficient approach to wealth management is highly aligned with the demands of today's UHNWIs and institutional investors. We look forward to supporting their mission to redefine how Family Office services are delivered in Southeast Asia and beyond.”
He added, “Mancano’s deep expertise and proven track record position them as a solid candidate for regional and global expansion. We’re confident that our support will enable them to access funding, refine operations, and build impactful partnerships.”
From the company's side, Managing Director Michael John Mancano stated:
"Partnering with FasterCapital marks a pivotal step in our growth journey. Their platform offers the strategic insight and support we need to fine-tune our operations, enhance investor outreach, and attract the right partners. We’re excited about what the future holds.”
With the global Family Office market continuing to expand due to a rising number of Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs), Mancano And Associates aims to meet the growing demand for diversified and sustainable investment strategies with a strong Southeast Asian focus.
