I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

SGX launches initiatives to enhance listing, trading of fixed income products

Createwealth8888:

By H1 2011, we small retail investors should be at level playing field with bonds and stocks; and effectively we are our own Fund Manager. Thank you! Mr Magnus, new CEO of SGX.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
SINGAPORE : Singapore Exchange (SGX) has launched its first initiatives to enhance the listing, trading and distribution of fixed income products to build a more vibrant bond market in Asia.


These initiatives include drawing more Singapore-listed companies and other organisations to issue bonds for listing and trading on SGX.

The listing and trading of fixed income securities such as preference shares and convertible bonds will also be encouraged.

SGX also plans to halve the time taken to approve bond listings by streamlining the processes involved.

By the first quarter of next year, SGX expects to offer an on-exchange secondary market for individual and institutional investors to trade Singapore Government Securities (SGS).

SGX's Central Depository has been a custodian of individual investors' SGS holdings since April 1 this year.

A total of 1,229 bonds are currently listed on SGX.

In fiscal year 2010, 200 bonds were listed involving programmes to raise over S$100 billion.

SGX has also appointed Ms Tng Kwee Lian, formerly from UOB Asset Management, as Senior Vice President and Head of Fixed Income to drive the promotion of bond trading to high net worth and individual investors.

President of SGX Gan Seow Ann said SGX offers an unparalleled value proposition to issuers and investors of bonds.

That's because issuers can leverage on SGX's international distribution platform while market participants will have access to one of the world's leading trading venues.
