Malaysia grew 40.4% to S$4.23 billion; China doubled to S$0.99 billion; and Hong Kong climbed 36% to S$4.12 billion.\n\nNet inflows reached S$2.56 billion for the first half, up 15.2% YoY. \n\nGroup customer accounts passed 1.5 million, up more than 50% YoY.\n\nThe group targets S$100 billion in AUA by 2030 – that implies a 25.6% compound annual growth rate from 2025.\n\nWhat’s happening in Hong Kong?\nHong Kong remained the group’s largest revenue contributor. \n\nNet revenue rose 41.9% YoY to around S$56.7 million in the second quarter. \n\nThe ePension division drove much of the gain, and higher recurring fee income and insurance brokerage fees also contributed.\n\nBy 30 April 2026, all 12 trustees and 24 schemes had completed onboarding onto the Hong Kong Pension platform. \n\nManagement has turned its focus to service quality and operational efficiency.\n\nHong Kong’s profit, though, grew just 13.4% YoY to S$17.8 million. \n\nThat trailed revenue growth as costs tied to the ePension division continued to build. \n\nOperating leverage in this division looks more like a 2027 story than a 2026 one.\n\nManagement expects the ORSO pension administration business to start contributing in the second half of 2026. \n\nMacau’s CPF business comes next.\n\nHow is the UK bank contributing?\nThe UK-based iFAST Global Bank (iGB) posted a record profit before tax of S$1.92 million in the second quarter, up 174.5% YoY. \n\nThat extends its profitability streak to seven consecutive quarters.\n\nCustomer deposits grew 25.2% YoY to S$1.81 billion. \n\nNet interest revenue rose 37.9%, while non-interest fee income fell 11.8% YoY. \n\nRevenue per transaction at its EzRemit division moderated from elevated year-ago levels. \n\nFee income recovered 23.1% quarter on quarter.\n\n\nIn May 2026, iGB became the first UK bank to partner with Ant International. \n\nThe two partners launched a cross-border QR code payment feature, across more than 150 million merchants across over 100 markets.\n\nThe group also plans to launch a US stock brokerage business later in 2026. \n\nThe entity holds FINRA membership and SEC registration but has not yet launched.\n\nCan iFAST keep raising its dividend?\nFree cash flow is the lifeblood of dividends.\n\nFor 1H2026, iFAST’s non-banking business generated operating cash flow of S$43.4 million. \n\nAfter capital expenditure of S$16.9 million, free cash flow totalled S$26.6 million. \n\nThe group paid S$15.2 million in dividends during the same period.\n\niFAST holds around S$385 million in net cash. \n\nIts gross debt-to-equity ratio has risen to 0.53 from 0.28 at end-2025 – a S$120 million note issue in March drove the increase.\n\nNot everything points one way. \n\nNet inflows in the second quarter grew just 2.2% YoY, down sharply from 33.2% in the first quarter.\n\nGroup headcount peaked in mid-2026. \n\nManagement expects it to decline by end-2028 as AI adoption spreads across the business. \n\nThat should widen profit margins from 2027.\n\nGet Smart: The Revenue Engine Behind iFAST’s Rising Dividend\nDividends don’t rise by goodwill. \n\nThey need an expanding earnings base behind them.\n\niFAST’s per-share payout has grown from S$0.048 in 2023 to a guided S$0.12 for 2026. \n\nThat 150% increase tracks directly to a widening revenue base. \n\nThe platform now spans five markets and more than 1.5 million customer accounts. \n\nThe Hong Kong pension franchise has completed onboarding, and the UK bank has only started to scale.\n\nWhat separates a one-off dividend hike from a sustainable one? \n\nWatch whether AUA growth and ePension margins keep converting into higher profits. \n\nTrack whether iGB’s deposit base keeps scaling. \n\nThat is the engine. \n\nThe dividend follows.\n\nNot all AI “winners” will survive this cycle.\n\nBut a few companies already have the scale, cash flow, and edge to pull ahead.
