SGX's Malaysian link to help retail sector

It can enable a cheaper transaction experience.

The linking of the Singapore Exchange (SGX) and the Bursa Malaysia (BM) can benefit retail investors over institutional investors, CIMB Research said.

According to a report, the link can enable a "more efficient" transaction experience at lower costs, and a more diversified stock universe.

Singapore Business Review previously reported that the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) will link the stock market trading between the two exchanges by end of this year.

CIMB Research added that this initiative could also encourage more cross-border research reports and facilitate information exchange.

Similar companies listed on SGX that currently trade at lower valuations than their peers on Bursa could also be potential beneficiaries of the trading link.

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.
