Singapore plans to spur investment in much-needed infrastructure in Southeast Asia by helping to structure projects to make them more “bankable,” a senior official said.

A new government agency called Infrastructure Asia will help connect the “supply and demand” for these projects, Indranee Rajah, Singapore’s second minister for finance, said in an interview on Monday with Bloomberg Television’s Haslinda Amin.
