SIA initially missed a chance to establish short-haul LCC group Tiger Airways (now Tigerair) as a wholly owned subsidiary, lacking the confidence to invest fully and becoming only a minority shareholder. The result has been that Tigerair was not integrated into SIA's group strategy from the start. In the absence of a complete commonality of interest, Tigerair arguably did as much damage to the mainline carrier as any other LCC which entered the Singapore market.
