"We are very happy to have Ms Yeo join SGX. She comes with more than 25 years of valuable experience from the Monetary Authority of Singapore and Temasek Holdings. She will be replacing Mr Alan Shaw in providing direction on our regulatory work and supervision of members, listed companies and market activities," said Mr Hsieh Fu Hua, CEO of SGX.
"We are very appreciative of Mr Alan Shaw who had contributed significantly to the development of our regulatory function including the shift to the disclosure-base regime. He has played an instrumental role in the rewrite of the Exchange's listing and securities trading manuals and in promoting transparency, corporate disclosures and better price discovery for the securities market. Alan has decided to return to Australia in August and we wish him all the best in his future endeavours," added Mr Hsieh Fu Hua.
