Wealth Tracker: Can short-term fixed income be the safe harbor in volatile markets?

US President Donald Trump has announced a two-week suspension of attacks on Iran—a tense, last-minute pause in a conflict that has already rattled the Middle East and global markets.

The ceasefire hinges on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic chokepoint carrying one-fifth of the world’s oil.

With talks set to begin on April 10, key disagreements remain over nuclear enrichment and sanctions relief.

Is this a genuine step toward lasting peace, or a fragile pause in a high-stakes standoff? What are the risks if negotiations falter, and how much leverage do Washington and Tehran really hold?

On The Big Story, Debbie Yong speaks with Dr Jessica Genauer, Academic Director of the Public Policy Institute & Associate Professor in International Relations, University of New South Wales, to find out more.

The Big Story: Trump, Iran agree to a two-week ceasefire. But is lasting peace possible? 

Singapore has introduced a fresh round of support measures worth close to $1 billion as rising energy prices and global instability threaten to push inflation higher.

At the same time, a newly announced ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran offers a brief window of relief for global markets, but uncertainty remains.

So how far can these measures go in cushioning the immediate impact and is Singapore prepared for a more prolonged period of global volatility?

The Big Story: Is Singapore’s S$1 billion support package enough to tackle costs from the Middle East conflict?

According to CNN, Singapore’s Le Freeport—a climate-controlled vault usually reserved for extreme wealth — is now home to a 66‑million-year-old Triceratops skeleton, standing just feet away from billions in gold and priceless contemporary art.

Dinosaurs, gold, and masterpieces, all under one roof? Behind the spectacle lies a complex story. Families holding these alternative assets must navigate structuring their holdings, complying with Singapore’s strict regulations, verifying provenance, valuing unusual assets, and planning for taxes and succession.

On The Big Story, Debbie Yong speaks with Neil Synnott, Regional Chief Commercial Officer for APAC at IQ-EQ, to explore how family offices and advisors help these families manage risk and regulation, while preserving the excitement and prestige of owning something truly exceptional.
