A forward-looking conversation on Singapore’s equities market took center stage at the BofA Singapore EES Client Roundtable 2025. 🔥   Earlier this week, BofA Securities hosted the Singapore EES Client Roundtable 2025, convening an evening of discussion amongst the institutional trading community. A key highlight was the fireside chat between our Head of Equities, Yao Loong Ng and Michael Bok, Head of Trading, Asia at Schroders.   The conversation offered a grounded yet forward-looking view of Singapore’s capital markets, advocating for a more collaborative ecosystem to attract high-quality listings and encourage greater market vibrancy.   Retail investors featured prominently in the dialogue. Their growing influence is reshaping market dynamics, and SGX is responding with initiatives aimed at improving accessibility — such as partnerships with intermediaries, digital dissemination of research reports through the GEMS grant, and efforts to upgrade the remisier profession.   Momentum in the small- and mid-caps continues to build, supported by six consecutive months of net institutional purchasing. In July alone, liquidity of the segment nearly doubled, largely driven by retail participation.    The session underscored a shared commitment to advance Singapore’s equities market, thanks to BofA Securities and all participants for the engaging exchange! #SGXSecurities #Equities #Partnerships Bank of America Business

We saw really strong treasury gains in Q1FY26 and Q4FY25, it was a great comfort for banks amid pressure on net interest margins. Will it be the same in Q2? Definitely not, analysts say. And NIM pressures are expected to continue Bond yields have moved adversely, and there’s absence of OMOs. OMOs help boost treasury gains because banks can sell their bonds to a large buyer like the central bank at a profitable rate When results are announced, we’ll get to see which banks have smart treasury teams from the gains they make in this quarter Read the full report below - https://lnkd.in/dcJhEepD
