  "account": "Singapore Exchange (SGX) is implementing new disclosure rules starting January 1, 2027, aiming to enhance transparency and build a \"value creation culture\" among listed companies. These rules will require firms to provide clearer disclosure on executive compensation, dividend policies, and investor relations. SGX RegCo CEO Tan Boon Gin emphasized that the changes will strengthen disclosure standards while preserving flexibility for issuers. The market regulator launched a public consultation in April to gather input on how to improve disclosure quality. SID welcomed the emphasis on improving disclosure quality and called for guidance on meaningful, company-specific disclosures. While more than 90% of issuers already have investor engagement websites and 80% disclose investor relations policies, only a minority detail their shareholder engagement activities. Only 47% disclose the financial indicators used in remuneration frameworks. Compliance with the new rules is expected to begin in 2028, encouraging early adoption.",
