SGX gears up to review listing rules

It has already formed a Working Committee.

According to a release, Singapore Exchange (SGX) said that since its ‘Proposed review of listing manual’ announcement on 3 August 2012, a Working Committee has been established to conduct a comprehensive review of the listing manual to enhance the robustness, efficacy and relevance of the listing framework in Singapore. 

The Working Committee has commenced its review to identify areas of possible enhancements to strengthen Singapore’s attractiveness as a capital market.

This effort dovetails with SGX’s initiatives to transform the marketplace and is part of its continuing efforts to uphold good corporate governance and high regulatory standards. The Committee, chaired by Mr Richard Teng, Deputy Chief Regulatory Officer of Singapore Exchange, comprises representations from the Association of Banks in Singapore Corporate Finance Committee and market practitioners.

The Working Committee welcomes proposals from market participants, both professional and the public which can be sent to the Regulation team at [email protected].

Proposals have been made by the Securities Investors Association of Singapore (SIAS) and carefully considered by the Working Committee. SGX is appreciative of the efforts of, and feedback by SIAS.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
