Great Eastern exploring options for free float requirements compliance

SGX gave the insurer until 25 May.

Great Eastern is exploring options to comply with free float requirements under the Singapore Exchange’s (SGX) listing rules, the insurer said in a bourse filing.

The company has also been assessing the courses of action available for compliance since its suspension and intends to appoint a financial adviser to explore its options.

The insurer applied to SGX for a further extension as information from its annual report on the 2024 financial year – expected to be made available towards the end of March 2025 – will be important for this process.

The company is preparing its financial statements for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2024 which will be published in the report.

SGX had no objection to granting the extension and gave the insurer until 25 May.

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.
