While Goldman said SGX management has continued its focus on innovation through measures such as new derivative products, the net improvements to turnover or derivative volumes appear marginal.
Upside catalysts include a rise in turnover and clarity on capital deployment, Goldman said. At 11:01 a.m., SGX shares were down 0.3% at $7.19 and have fallen nearly 15% so far this year.
