Throughout the week, plenty of announcements were made, including how Climate Impact X (CIX), backed by the Singapore Exchange (SGX:S68
) , Temasek, DBS (SGX:D05) and Standard Chartered, has launched its spot trading platform at the intersection of Asia Pacific and European trading hours — a rather small window in a future 24-hour trading day.
The second week of June in Singapore was all about Temasek-led Ecosperity — a week full of engagement and advocacy, twinning ecology with prosperity. Indeed, doing good and doing well must go hand in hand, or else all the talk for the past 27 COP (Conference of the Parties) will just be hot air.
With the theme “Breakthrough for Net Zero”, the great and the good gathered, discussed, learnt, and made commitments. As part of the main programme, the Finance Asia’s Transition (FAST) Conference was held, with co-organisers Blackrock and the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
