THE possibility of a merger between Bursa Malaysia and Singapore Exchange (SGX) to create an Asian power exchange with a combined market valuation of more than US$1.5 trillion is "far-fetched" for now, Bursa's chief executive Tajuddin Atan has said.
A more realistic option would be to collaborate and share connectivity and to deepen ties among the Asean exchanges, he told Singapore reporters on Friday.
