    It’s been an eventful week as Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68) announced a list of requirements to allow the listing of SPACs, or special purpose acquisition companies.

    This long-awaited move came as the bourse operator became the first in Asia to allow such blank-cheque companies to list.

    Investors may soon be able to buy into such securities in Singapore as several parties have expressed interest in listing the nation’s first SPAC.

    We also take a look at what Singtel (SGX: Z74) has achieved with its recent 5G tie-ups and launch into more neighbourhood areas.

    Will the increase in consumer use cases and opportunities for more enterprise solutions help to boost the telco’s share price?

    We also compare the pros and cons of investing in overseas REITs and discuss at length whether it is better to diversify or concentrate your investment portfolio.
