The leadership read
A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Singapore Exchange (SGX)'s move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.
