新加坡金融管理局副主席徐芳达周二表示，新加坡将拨款14.5亿新元（约11亿美元）予五家资产管理商，以提振其股票市场。
Singapore will allocate S$1.45 billion ($1.1 billion) to five asset managers to boost its equities market, Monetary Authority of Singapore Deputy Chairman Chee Hong Tat said on Tuesday.
这是在65亿新元的股票市场发展计划下，向资产管理商提供的第三批资金。
It is the third batch of funding to asset managers under the S$6.5 billion Equity Market Development Programme.
该计划旨在强化本地资产管理生态系统，并增加对新加坡股票市场的兴趣。
The aim of the programme is to strengthen the local asset management ecosystem and increase interest in Singapore’s equities market.
获得资金的管理商包括东方汇理、富兰克林邓普顿、汇丰资产管理、M&G投资管理和Natixis投资管理公司。
The managers receiving the funds are Amundi, Franklin Templeton, HSBC Asset Management, M&G Investments, and Natixis Investment Managers.
徐芳达表示：“这些管理商在区域市场拥有强劲的往绩记录，并承诺继续将大量资金配置到新加坡，作为其投资策略不可或缺的一部分。”
“The managers have strong track records in regional markets, and they are committed to continue making significant allocation to Singapore as an integral part of their investment strategies,” said Chee.
徐芳达还宣布拨款2000万新元，以惠及中小型股和新上市公司。
Chee also announced a S$20 million grant to benefit small- and mid-cap stocks and new listings.
新加坡一直致力于振兴其股票市场，去年推出首次上市20%税务回扣，并创设新加坡交易所与纳斯达克的双重上市。8月，新加坡为基金行业推出税务和签证优惠，以与香港竞争。
Singapore has been trying to rejuvenate its equities market, introducing a 20% tax rebate for primary listings last year and creating dual listings on the Singapore Exchange and the Nasdaq. In August, Singapore introduced tax and visa incentives for the fund sector to compete with Hong Kong.
