SingSaver Best-Of Awards celebrates products and platforms driving smarter money moves
Held at Pan Pacific Orchard, the inaugural SingSaver Best-Of Awards 2025 handed out 45 awards across four categories: Credit Cards, Digital Banks, Insurance Plans and Investment Platforms.
The Award Ceremony on July 17 was attended by more than 170 executives from the financial industry. Nasdaq-listed MoneyHero is a personal finance aggregation and comparison platform and digital insurance brokerage provider in Greater South-east Asia that serves 1.3 million unique monthly users in Singapore.
Its portfolio includes SingSaver, a popular Singapore-based portal comparing products and services from over 60 financial providers – as well as Seedly, a personal finance community platform.
The awards ceremony, said Mr Rohith Murthy, Chief Executive Officer of MoneyHero, marked a significant milestone in the promotion of financial literacy and excellence in Singapore.
'Tonight's awards crown a decade of helping Singaporeans cut through fine print and capture real value. Each winning product demonstrates that transparency, first-class customer experience and genuine savings can exist together,' he added.
Attendees of the awards ceremony included representatives from Singapore's three local banks – DBS, OCBC and UOB – alongside digital banks such as GXS Bank, MariBank and Trust Bank.

Also present were representatives from brokerages FOREX.com, IG Singapore, CMC Markets, as well as other financial services providers Endowus, MSIG Insurance and Singlife.
Nominated personal finance products and service providers were carefully evaluated based on factors such as annual fees, interest rates, sign-up incentives, bonus offers, rewards earn rates, user experience, coverage scope, and policy flexibility. This, said Mr Murthy, ensures the awards truly represent excellence and reliability in the marketplace.
A joint panel of MoneyHero analysts and independent personal finance voices assessed products on annual fees, interest rates, sign-up perks, earn rates, coverage scope and policy flexibility. Winners were selected from shortlisted entries that were evaluated through mystery shopping to test onboarding speed and customer support.
Each product went through a rigorous evaluation process conducted by the MoneyHero Group team, alongside an esteemed panel of prominent local personal finance influencers.

Forum: Canopies with solar panels can make shophouse districts cool
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox I read with interest the recent commentary on revitalising Singapore's nightlife ( Revitalise nightlife? Let's get the crowds out first , Aug 16). The Government's move to allow alcohol to be sold till 4am on Thursdays and Fridays is a good one, as is the writer's suggestion to start car-free zones earlier to support activities for the sober curious. However, more can be done to make visiting our shophouse districts appealing during the day. Rising temperatures are discouraging people from going out, and the lack of shade on these streets worsens the problem. It may be time for the authorities to consider permanently pedestrianising these streets and erecting canopies over them. Similar concepts already exist in Clarke Quay and Smith Street. However, the falling cost of solar panels gives us the opportunity to improve on these through canopies that incorporate alternating panels of solar cells and clear glass. This enables energy to be harvested while still letting natural light through. The canopies can cut the amount of electricity needed for air-conditioning, leading to lower operating costs. They can also enhance thermal comfort for visitors by shielding them from the sun. These improvements would make Singapore's shophouse districts more enjoyable and more sustainable.

What is B30A? Nvidia Prepares New, More Powerful Blackwell-Based AI Chip for China
US-based semiconductor giant Nvidia is developing a new artificial intelligence chip for the Chinese market, sources familiar with the matter revealed. The processor, known internally as the B30A, will be based on Nvidia's latest Blackwell architecture and is expected to be more powerful than the H20 chip currently approved for sale in China. Nvidia X The move comes after U.S. President Donald Trump signaled last week that Washington may allow more advanced chips to be exported to China. However, approval remains uncertain as U.S. lawmakers continue to express concerns about providing Beijing with access to high-performance AI technology. The B30A will reportedly use a single-die design, offering roughly half the computing power of Nvidia's flagship B300, which uses a dual-die configuration. Despite the scaled-down performance, the chip will feature high-bandwidth memory and Nvidia's NVLink interconnect, similar to the H20 but built on newer technology. Although the final specifications are not yet confirmed, Nvidia aims to deliver samples of the chip to Chinese clients for testing as early as next month. In a statement, the company said it regularly evaluates new products to remain competitive "to the extent governments allow," emphasizing that all offerings comply fully with regulatory approvals. China accounted for about 13% of Nvidia's revenue last year, making it a critical market despite heavy restrictions. In July, the U.S. allowed Nvidia to resume sales of the H20, which had been halted earlier this year. Trump later suggested that future Nvidia chips for China could come with "30% to 50% off" in computing power compared to flagship models, calling the H20 "obsolete." The question of how much AI hardware China should access remains one of the most sensitive issues in U.S.-China trade relations. Nvidia has argued that continued engagement with Chinese firms is necessary to prevent them from switching entirely to local rivals like Huawei, which is rapidly improving its chip capabilities. Chinese state media have recently raised security concerns about Nvidia's chips, warning local companies about potential risks. Nvidia has denied those claims, saying its hardware contains no hidden vulnerabilities. Alongside the B30A, Nvidia is also preparing another China-specific chip, the RTX6000D, designed mainly for AI inference tasks. This processor, also based on Blackwell architecture, will have reduced specifications to comply with U.S. export thresholds. Small batches are expected to reach Chinese clients by September.
