Singapore IPOs: Why I No Longer Cover Every Listing

Some readers may have noticed that I have not been writing about every Singapore IPO since last year. The simple reason is that life has become busier. Between my day job, an increasingly packed travel schedule, family commitments and desire to play more golf, I have become much more selective about how I spend my time.  Writing detailed IPO reviews takes time — reading prospectuses, analysing financials, comparing valuations and understanding the competitive landscape.

This indeed marks a major milestone for us as we work towards our goal of giving movement, quality and life to years ” - Dr Chin Pak Lin, Executive Chairman and CEO of AHS.

119 of the readers participated in the poll to guess the opening price and 30% guess it will open below 30 cents and 50% guessed it will be above 30c, with the 20% don't giving it a hoot.


It would have been better if the Company has reserved some shares for the public...
