Singapore Exchange (SGX)

Will it help for SGX? May be, but I really doubt it will help much...

Japan, Singapore, Taiwan forges new bourse connections: WSJ

The HK-Shanghai stock connect is unique because China is a closed system (or controlled one) and the stock connect act as a new outlet for new liquidity to follow through. For JST (Japan, Singapore, Taiwan), these 3 countries are already pretty open and I share your doubt. More importantly, HK-Shanghai stock connect is still in its infant stage and it remains to be seen whether such stock connects will turn out to be good on an aggregate basis in future. It may even produce unintended negative secondary effects in the mid/longer term.
