2 February 2026 - As organisations strengthen their digital capabilities, governance and technology resilience, preparedness has become a shared responsibility, one that aligns closely with Singapore’s Total Defence and national resilience efforts.

RSM Singapore was involved in the Tabletop Exercises (TTX) held as part of Exercise SG Ready 2026, aimed at strengthening businesses’ preparedness for prolonged power disruptions and degraded digital connectivity.

During one of the sessions, led by our experts Eileen Tan, Hoi Wai Khin and Kendrick Choo, RSM shared key lessons learnt from an internal IT Disaster Recovery exercise, contributing practical, real-world insights to support organisational readiness and resilience planning.

Mr Zaqy Mohamad, Senior Minister of State for Defence, graced the session and also visited Quantedge Capital, where Quantedge Capital and Amova Asset Management co-organised a sector-focused business continuity TTX. RSM Singapore facilitated the session, which brought together senior leadership from 13 investment management companies operating in Singapore to discuss responses to prolonged power disruptions and degraded digital connectivity.

Speaking at the exercise, Mr Zaqy emphasised that:

"In today’s operating environment, resilience is not just a government responsibility. Total Defence is a Whole-of-Society responsibility, and businesses like all of you play a critical role. Through Exercise SG Ready, MINDEF and our partners aim to empower organisations to think through plausible disruptions, review business continuity plans, and strengthen resilience against hybrid threats and disruptions."

RSM Singapore remains committed to supporting organisations, including SMEs, in strengthening technology resilience, business continuity and crisis preparedness, contributing to a more resilient business community as part of Singapore’s broader Total Defence effort.
