Can SGX do more to protect the small investor?
Add BT as a preferred sourceI REFER to the article "Singapore stocks: once bitten, twice shy" by Uma Devi (The Business Times, August 21).
Could more be done by the Singapore Exchange (SGX) to protect the interests of minority shareholders in the case of companies such as Noble, Hyflux and Eagle Hospitality Trust?
What lessons can be learnt from these cases that will enable SGX to take more precautionary measures and issue earlier warnings to small investors? Could SGX please update us of any actions taken?
