IF the Singapore Exchange wants it - and works - hard enough, it could score the flotation of Malaysian-headquartered regional healthcare player Qualitas Healthcare Corp, in a development that would undoubtedly infuse a healthy dose of excitement into this year's lethargic pipeline of stock offerings.
But this is not to say Bursa Malaysia is not all fired up to snag this initial public offering (IPO), which could raise some S$200 million for Qualitas; Malaysia was, after all, the group's choice listing venue two years ago, but the exercise was eventually scrapped because of weak market settings.
