Ready, set, restructure: Singapore large caps clean house to woo investors

Singapore

"BUSINESS as usual" is so pre-pandemic. In these extraordinary times, Singapore's corporate stalwarts are tuning out legacy assets and channelling hot trends such as clean energy and digitalisation as they hunt for growth and repackage themselves. Their common goal: to unlock value.

This rising trend of "new-wave" revamps to win investor's hearts - different from past cost-cut-centric restructurings which markets have become tone deaf to - began last year, but has lately picked up speed among blue chips, many of which are linked to Temasek Holdings.
