Overview 

Singapore's initial public offering market is starting to rebound from its 2018 performance as initial public offering deals in year to date climbed to $1.54 billion (US$1.11 billion) from nine initial public offering deals, surpassing share sales of $1.27 billion (US$920 million) raised from 24 floats in the previous year. That said, there are about 14 companies undergoing privatisation in 2019 with a few more being identified by research houses to be potential delisting candidates before year-end. 

SGX has revised its rules on the delisting process in what industry commentators see as a move to slow down the pace, rather than stop them completely. More information is available at Delistings drag on Singapore's recovering IPO market from Singapore Business Review.
