New Options From State Pension Plan Could Boost Singapore Equities -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-20 13:30

0530 GMT - New investment options under Singapore's mandatory state pension program could drive a sustained flow of funds to the city-state's equities market, say Macquarie Capital analysts led by Jayden Vantarakis in a note. They estimate the new investment options starting 2028 could add S$4.5 billion-S$6.0 billion a year into the equities market. This could create an annual flow of similar magnitude to Singapore's S$6.0 billion central-bank-led equities market development plan, which has already lifted fund flows in the country's equities, they say. Daily average traded value for Singapore stocks at the start of 2026 rose around 60% on year, with liquidity broadening out beyond large-cap companies, they note.(megan.cheah@wsj.com)
