S'pore eyes more listings by shipping, offshore companies: SGX chief

Singapore

SINGAPORE is keen on getting more shipping and offshore companies to list here, said Singapore Exchange (SGX) chief executive Magnus Bocker yesterday.

Noting that shipping was a strong sector and that the SGX offered it a strong market, he added: "It is not only about the Exchange, it is about the infrastructure that we have here. We have knowledgeable banks, analysts, research, law firms and, on top of it, we have a lot of companies in Singapore that deal with this (sector)."
