SINGAPORE: A group representing the private capital sector has put up a range of suggestions that it believes will boost trading on the flagging local bourse and attract more firms to list in Singapore.

Their proposal reportedly includes requiring stock market participation from the private capital industry, and allowing money from pension funds to be invested in locally listed companies, said the Financial Times (FT).
