BIG ticket deals such as the US$3.8 billion BOC Aviation spinoff and the US$2.5 billion sale of Asia Square Tower 1 - the largest single-tower office deal in Asia Pacific - could not push the deal-making scene in Singapore to beat last year's showing; so far at least.
According to a preliminary review by Thomson Reuters for the first nine months of this year, corporate deals in Singapore totalled US$37.5 billion - down 17 per cent from the first nine months of 2015.
