Pull the official MAS Financial Institutions Directory: every regulated bank, insurer, capital markets firm, financial adviser and payment institution in Singapore, with licence types, regulated activities, named Chairman and CEO, website, phone and address. No login, no API key.

What you get

One clean record per regulated financial institution, straight from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) Financial Institutions Directory (FID), the authoritative register of who MAS regulates. Built for KYC and AML onboarding, compliance checks and financial-sector lead generation.

• name: the registered institution name
• licenceTypes: the licences the institution holds, each with its regulated activities (for example Full Bank, Exempt Capital Markets Services Entity, Exempt Financial Adviser)
• regulatedActivities: the flat list of regulated activities across all licences
• chairman: the named Chairman, where MAS lists one
• ceo: the named Chief Executive Officer, where MAS lists one
• website: the institution's website
• phone: contact phone number
• address: full registered address
• lastUpdated: the date MAS last updated this record
• detailUrl: the source directory page for the institution
• observedAt: when this record was collected

How it works

Input	What it does
searchQuery	Filter the directory by institution name, licence type or regulated activity (for example DBS, bank, fund management, insurance). Leave empty to enumerate the entire register.
institutionSlugs	Target specific institutions directly by their directory slug (for example 166-DBS-BANK-LTD).
withDetails	When on, each institution's detail page is opened for licence types, regulated activities, Chairman, CEO, website, phone, address and last-updated date. When off, only listing-level fields are returned (faster).
maxItems	Cap the number of institutions collected.

The directory is public. Leave the search empty to walk the whole register, or pass a keyword to focus on a segment.

Can I get the whole directory? Yes. Leave searchQuery empty and set a high maxItems to enumerate the full register, page by page.

What does licenceTypes contain? Each licence the institution holds, along with the regulated activities listed under it. A single institution often holds several licences (for example a bank that is also an Exempt Financial Adviser).
