On 9 November 2018, the Singapore Exchange Regulation issued a Consultation Paper on Proposed Amendments to Voluntary Delisting Regime.

The proposed changes are in relation to (1) two aspects of voluntary delisting, namely the voluntary delisting resolution and the exit alternative ("Exit Offer"); and (2) clarification of the applicability of certain Listing Rules to delisting pursuant to a voluntary liquidation, scheme of arrangement and general offer.

This Update provides a brief summary of the key/ salient points of the proposals in the Consultation Paper. The Consultation Paper may be obtained from SGX's website here.
