CGS International's Bold Move: Empowering ASEAN's Capital Markets

The ASEAN region is witnessing a financial renaissance, as major bourses introduce new strategies to invigorate their capital markets. At the forefront of this change is CGS International Securities Pte Ltd (CGS International), setting the stage with groundbreaking asset management capabilities designed to harness the potential of this vibrant region.

A New Horizon in Asset Management

With Singapore spearheading a S$5 billion Equities Development Programme and Malaysia launching a roadmap to support MSMEs, CGS International’s role becomes pivotal. The company is actively supporting market rejuvenation, facilitating secondary Chinese firm listings in Singapore, while Malaysia welcomes dual listings like UMS Holdings.

The introduction of the CGSI Ascend Access Strategy exemplifies this commitment, offering investors unprecedented access to IPOs and secondaries, previously the domain of institutional giants. This strategy ensures disciplined stock selection across ASEAN and Hong Kong, allocating at least 50% to Singapore—an opportunity for astute investors to tap into regional growth stories.

Strengthening Through Regional Expertise

CGS International is not just a participant but a leader, thanks to its robust Asset Management team in Singapore. Under the stewardship of seasoned professionals like James Ong, Phua Zhenghao, and Grace Yan, the team brings unparalleled expertise and a nuanced understanding of regional dynamics to the table. This allows CGS International to deliver high-conviction deal participation and robust risk management, ensuring comprehensive capital preservation.

Visionary Leadership and New Initiatives

James Ong highlights the strategic expansion of regional investment capabilities as a game-changer. By leveraging in-depth research and regional connectivity, CGS International provides a holistic perspective, setting them apart from competitors. The appointment of equities market veteran, Chew Sutat, as Chair of the Investment Committee, further underscores their commitment to governance and strategic foresight.

CGS International: A Trusted Partner

As an award-winning, market-leading financial service provider, CGS International’s influence stretches across 15 countries, supported by their parent company, China Galaxy Securities. With nearly 18 million satisfied customers worldwide, CGS International’s role in ASEAN’s capital market rejuvenation reflects both their regional aspirations and global competencies.

According to Plataforma Media, CGS International’s initiatives are not only opening new avenues for investors but are also poised to redefine the capital landscape in Southeast Asia.

In embracing these initiatives, CGS International continues to influence positive change and foster unparalleled opportunities in the dynamic ASEAN capital markets.
