A power-supply failure forced Singapore Exchange Ltd. to halt trading on Southeast Asia’s biggest stock market for 144 minutes today. The equity venue only briefly reopened after its normal closing time.
“Securities and derivatives markets experienced an outage as a result of multiple power-supply issues,” Tim Utama, the company’s chief operations and technology officer, said in a statement. “The outage did not arise from a cyber-attack.”
