The brand features bangles and pendants inspired by local culture, such as Peranakan and nonya kebaya.

And they partnered with the Autism Resource Centre (Singapore) to train and employ artisans from their communities. 

On Culture Club, Hongbin Jeong and Roshan Gidwani speaks to Stephanie Choo, Co-founder, Eden + Elie, to share more.

Gold is often seen as a safe haven, especially during times of uncertainty. In fact, Gold was hovering at a record high around $2,700 per ounce last week, with the US presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump just a day away and most investors expecting another rate cut at the Federal Reserve's next meeting later this week.

So is gold an investor’s best friend at the moment? What are some trends when it comes to investing in gold? On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Priyanka Sachdeva, Senior Market Analyst, Phillip Nova, to find out more about gold and its shine.

Singapore stocks started trading in positive territory today after global markets ended the previous week higher.

The Straits Times Index (STI) opened 0.5 per cent higher at 3,573.35 points after 35.9 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have Genting Singapore, after the firm said on Saturday that Resorts World Sentosa (RWS)’s chief casino operator Andrew MacDonald stepped down on Friday. 

Elsewhere, from investors' sentiment ahead of the US Presidential election, which some market watchers fear is too-close-to-call, to expectations on possible fiscal stimulus out of China after the standing committee of the National People’s Congress concludes its five day meeting on Friday – international headlines remain at the front and centre of investors’ minds. 

Also on deck – how Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had reportedly asked SK Hynix to bring forward the supply of its next-generation high-bandwidth memory chips or HBM4 by six months.

On Market View, Money Matters' finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with David Kuo, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
