Which companies will win big from SG’s easing of restrictions?

SG stocks gained 4% to 5% following the relaxation.

The easing of restrictions has proven to be a gain for Singapore stocks following a 4% to 5% lift, but five companies enjoyed this win more than anyone else.

In a report, OCBC Investment Research said Singapore Airlines, SIA Engineering, SATS, ComfortDelGro Corporation, and Genting will be the key beneficiaries of the slew of relaxations imposed by the government.

Following the announcement of the relaxation, stocks of the aforementioned companies rose 4.25% to $5.40, 4.48% to $2.33, 5.04% to $4.17, 4.23% to $1.48, and 3.77% to $0.825, respectively.

“Singapore’s eventual re-opening will give the much-needed lift to hospitality and tourism-related stocks. While a strong re-rating of these sectors will take some time until clearer data shows a strong return of tourists to the island, the travel relaxation is a strong indication that the outlook is improving for these sectors as the COVID-19 situation stabilises in Singapore,” the analysts said.

While Singapore stocks felt a breeze following the relaxation, OCBC Investment Research said the road ahead will likely remain bumpy given the “global factors such as the continuing crisis in Ukraine, inflation, supply disruptions and Covid-19 remain.”

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.
