Fullerton, SGX launch equities competition for students

Students can pitch stocks in city-state-listed securities in the Value-Up Singapore Equities Challenge.

Fullerton Fund Management (Fullerton) and the SGX Group have launched the Value-Up Singapore Equities Challenge, in which local student teams are tasked to construct and manage portfolios of Singapore-listed securities.

The challenge will run over a six-week online trading period from 26 January to 6 March 2026 on InvestSG, a Singapore market-focused community platform, Fullerton said. It is open to students aged 18 and above,

The top six teams will advance to an in-person stock pitch challenge to be held at SGX Centre on 2 April 2026, where they will present their investment theses to a panel of judges from SGX Group, Fullerton, Temasek, and IMAS.

Cash prizes of $10,000, $5,000, and $3,000 will be awarded to the top three teams.

Ten participants from the challenge will also undergo an internship selection from Fullerton, in which the firm will identify participants with strong potential for five internship roles to be offered.

This initiative is also launched amidst the Equity Market Development Programme, a measure that aims to strengthen the local asset management, research ecosystems, and increase investor interest in Singapore’s equities market, Fullerton said.

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.
