Amreeta Eng, Executive Director, Enterprise Singapore

“For the commodities sector in particular, the strong participant network of companies is a big reason why companies are based here. It really enables the traders to have a good sense of the market, to find out what their counterparties need, and to exchange views in person. That’s why you also see companies from countries close to Singapore choosing to set up here.”
