Singapore’s Bourse Is Expanding Its Stock Research Unit

Can the people who regulate a company also produce research useful to an investor considering buying its stock? Singapore Exchange Ltd. says the answer is yes.

It’s expanded an in-house team dedicated to producing reports on firms listed on its venues, Chan Kum Kong, head of research and products, said in an interview. On top of two existing writers, nine members have been added to the team that was set up in 2016. The research group covers about 200 small and mid-cap stocks. While other exchanges pay to ensure there’s research on their public companies, its unusual to have staff assigned to write reports.
