Marcus Goh Wei Liang founded Singapore Stock Loans to do one thing exceptionally well: arrange discreet, principal-led financing secured by equity listed on the Singapore Exchange — the Mainboard and Catalist. He leads origination and structuring, the firm's pricing discipline, and the lender relationships on which every engagement depends.
His background spans two decades in Singapore equity capital markets, securities-backed lending, and private banking — the parts of the market where concentrated positions are actually moved. Across that career, Marcus has worked close to the structuring and relationship side of large SGX-listed holdings, the kind held by founders, controlling families, and long-standing substantial shareholders. That work has given him an instinct for the questions that matter before a transaction is ever priced: how liquid the counter really is, how a name's free float and average daily traded value bear on the structure, and what a charge does to a shareholder's standing on the register.
Much of his experience has involved structuring share-backed and block transactions for substantial Singapore shareholders — financing that frees capital from a holding without forcing its sale, and privately-negotiated placements of large blocks crossed off the screen with controlled disclosure. He is fluent in the mechanics that govern these deals in practice: the borrower opens an account with the designated custodian, over which the lender takes security, where the collateral shares are held, while beneficial ownership is preserved. Any disclosure or regulatory obligations are a matter for your own Singapore legal counsel, engaged in parallel; we act as arranger and introducer and do not provide legal or regulatory advice.
Marcus's conviction is that a serious shareholder should be able to raise capital against what they own without selling it, without noise, and without ever leaving the side of a principal. He sets the standard for how the firm engages — quietly, decisively, and on the client's terms. Every conversation he leads runs end to end through a single point of contact, with the register and the client's standing left undisturbed.
He works in English and Chinese throughout, and divides his time between transaction structuring, lender coordination, and the senior conversations that begin most engagements. Nothing he writes here is investment advice; it reflects his professional perspective on the Singapore market.
