Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX)
Singapore Exchange Ltd (SGX) is Asia-Pacific's first demutualised and integrated securities and derivatives exchange. It was inaugurated on 1 December 1999, from the merger of two well-respected financial institutions – the Stock Exchange of Singapore (SES) and the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (SIMEX). On 23 November 2000, SGX became the first exchange in Asia-Pacific to be listed via a public offer and a private placement. SGX is listed on its own Mainboard.
Leveraging on the combined strengths of the former entities, and through its broad range of products, strong international alliances and cutting-edge technology, SGX is able to provide retail and institutional investors seamless access to capital raising and investment in a global marketplace. As at end March 2006, there are over 670 companies listed on SGX, with a total market capitalization of over S$470 Billion. With nearly 35% of them being foreign companies, SGX is the most international exchange in Asia-Pacific. Attracting the attention of fund managers from all over the world, SGX is positioned to partner its companies for global growth. For more information, visit us at www.sgx.com.
