Liquidity boost for Singapore


SINGAPORE’S equity market looks set to turn the corner in the second half of the year (2H25), buoyed by a shift in global trade tensions and a timely injection of liquidity from policymakers. For investors seeking value, yield and quality, the city-state is once again looking like a worthwhile bet.
