Jittery Singaporean investors evade Chinese equities

Lack of corporate transparency is a big concern.

Singapore has a low level of exposure to the Chinese market relative to neighboring Hong Kong, as majority of Singaporean investors doubt corporate transparency in the Mainland and remain clueless about investing in Chinese equities.

According to Blackrock, only 19% of Singaporeans have exposure to the Chinese market. Lack of understanding about the Chinese market is the biggest concern, while shady corporate transparency and high level of market risk are also top reasons.

The report also revealed that less than half of Singaporeans who are already financially invested in China are also more likely to increase their exposure over the next year.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
