    SINGAPORE might require a big investor to inject liquidity into its stock market if it hopes to regain investor interest, said a panel of market experts on Saturday (Jul 15).

    Mark to Market “Live” is an extension of Paul’s popular weekly Monday column and monthly podcast of the same name. This edition took place at The Capitol Kempinski Hotel, and was the first to be held in front of a live audience.
