Are SGX Companies well governed and truly undervalued? [Chills 282]

Everyone says Singapore stocks are going cheap. So one guest pulled the Bloomberg numbers before walking into the studio: small caps here trade at 13 times earnings on average. Hong Kong? About four. Malaysia, 11. Her verdict: not undervalued. "Fairly priced."Meet Lawrence Loh, the NUS professor who has scored SGX-listed companies on governance for over a decade, and Hwee Li Ong, the SAC Capital CEO who takes companies to market. No sell-side spin, no vague optimism, no box-ticking. Just data, hard questions, and the odd coconut analogy.In this Chills with TFC, they break down why large companies outscore small ones on governance every year without fail, why REITs top the governance scores year after year, and whether family-run firms deserve a place in your portfolio.So which is it for you: are Singapore small caps cheap, or just bad at explaining themselves?---🎧 The Financial Coconut: Your weekly source for empowering financial knowledge and unlocking possibilities.
