The market regulator has launched a month-long public consultation to seek views on a number of proposals, according to a statement on Thursday.
SINGAPORE (Jan 16): Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo) is proposing to strengthen oversight of audits by requiring all listed companies to appoint an auditing firm and audit partner registered with Singapore’s Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA).
Foreign issuers that wish to appoint foreign auditors must also appoint an auditor registered with ACRA to act as a joint auditor.
