Singapore
THE sum of S$90 billion in Significant Infrastructure Government Loan Act (SINGA) bonds - including green infrastructure bonds - though a drop in the ocean of the global bond market, will go a long way to deepen Singapore's bond market and institutional investor base, as well as develop much-needed expertise among banks and ratings agencies.
This will help Singapore to cement its status as a green and infrastructure financing hub, market watchers say.
