SGX can count on 2 key earnings catalysts until FY15

One is its scheduled listing fees increase.

"We believe there are two key earnings catalysts to look for in 2H14-FY15," said CIMB in a results note after Singapore Exchange beat expectations to post a robust S$92.3m profit in 1Q14.

"The first is the increase in listing fees which will come into full effect in 2H14. The second is the launch of new derivative products (Thai and the Philippines index futures) and further traction in the derivative space," the research firm said.

In fact, CIMB went as far as saying that SGX "is becoming the derivatives exchange of choice in Asia" based on the rising activity and anticipated strong client loyalty as more products come on.

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.
