Whampoa Group
Whampoa Group was established by Amy Lee and Lee Han Shih. Amy Lee previously served as a senior partner at Lee & Lee. The founding families trace their wealth to OCBC Bank, Lee Rubber Group, and long-standing legal practice in Singapore. The firm allocates across technology, digital assets, and real estate. It holds Whampoa Real Estate with assets in Singapore and London, alongside the Whampoa Digital Web3 Fund and Whampoa Digital Hedge Fund. Deployment occurs through direct equity, strategic co-investments, and vehicles such as Singapore Gulf Bank. Geographic reach centers on Singapore and extends to the Middle East via the Mumtalakat partnership announced in February 2024. Team size and total deployment remain undisclosed. The firm maintains a single headquarters in Singapore. Shawn Chan serves as CEO. In November 2024 the Deputy King of Bahrain met with Edmund Lee, Chairman of Singapore Gulf Bank, at Gudaibiya Palace. Ownership and governance remain concentrated within the founding Lee families. The structure integrates family capital with external sovereign partners through Singapore Gulf Bank rather than operating as a conventional fund-of-funds or pure direct-investment vehicle.
