The new Securities and Futures (Amendment) Bill, which will facilitate dual listing arrangements on the Singapore Exchange (SGX), will also apply to future arrangements with other reputable jurisdictions, says National Development Minister Chee Hong Tat.

Chee, who is also the deputy chairman of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and chairman of the Equities Market Review Group, was speaking in Parliament on May 7 for the second reading of the Securities and Futures (Amendment) Bill 2026.

The Bill proposes two sets of changes to the Securities and Futures Act (SFA): a new section Part 13A, which sets up a framework to support dual listing arrangements between the SGX and an “appropriate overseas exchange”, and other amendments which will support all listings including those on the Global Listing Board (GLB).
