Chee stepped down as chair of the MAS Equities Market Review Group on Nov 19, after the group published its final report. He is now on to his next assignment, as the lead of the brand new Growth Capital Workgroup, which, as its name suggests, has been tasked with devising strategies to help support the financing needs of companies at various growth stages.
National Development Minister Chee Hong Tat is a busy man. Besides addressing the housing woes of Singaporeans by ramping up our housing supply, Chee is also the deputy chairman of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). The dual roles essentially make Chee the nation’s point man for the city-state’s real estate and financial markets.
This is in addition to his other government responsibilities. Chee is a member of the Singapore Economic Resilience Taskforce (SERT), which is chaired by Deputy Prime Minister and Trade and Industry Minister Gan Kim Yong. SERT was set up in April 2025 by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. The group has been tasked with helping the city-state overcome the uncertainties created by President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
