More ideas have been laid out to revive the Singapore Exchange by market regulators, as part of the ongoing bid by the Equities Market Review Group to attract IPOs and boost investor interest. Among these, the MAS is proposing for disclosure requirements to be simplified to make the listing process easier and help firms provide more relevant information to investors. Concurrently, SGX RegCo is considering doing away with the  financial watch list, after feedback that it has unintended negative effects on business confidence and access to financing. Mak Yuen Teen, founding director of the Centre for Investor Protection and Professor (Practice) of Accounting at the NUS Business School weighs the pros and cons of the proposals.
