ACI Singapore Seminar on Outlook for Asia in 2012 (9 Nov 2011)
Given the significant volatility and global uncertainties, ACI Singapore organized a Seminar on Outlook for Asia in 2012 on Wednesday, 9 November 2011 at the Executives’ Club.
The combination of a
global economic slowdown and political uncertainty in the world’s
largest economic blocs had seriously undermined investor sentiment
over the past few months. Despite being the major growth engine in
recent times, Asia had also not been shielded from this. This seminar
was therefore arranged at relatively short notice to analyse and
discuss these effects and what impact they would have on the Asian
markets in 2012.
The seminar format
comprising a blend of presentations, panel discussions and Q&A was
well received, The evening ended with a networking buffet session
among the ACI members, panelists and guests.
ACI Singapore Seminar
on the Dodd-Frank Legislation (29 September 2011)

Dodd-Frank Act on fundamental infrastructural setups (eg. clearing
houses and exchanges, electronic execution businesses, Asian
regulators etc) was also discussed. The subsequent Q&A session drew a
healthy discussion between the audience and panelists, with the
meeting eventually adjoining to a buffet networking dinner amongst ACI
Members, panelists and guests

ACI
Singapore Charity Golf 2008
- 25th July @ Tanah Merah Country Club We also can never thank our kind sponsors enough as they have unflinchingly stepped forward to help the less unfortunate in spite of the challenging environment in the financial markets. At a time when some of us find it difficult to make ends meet because of the ever rising cost of living, it is heartening that our members, their employers and our friends find within them the compassion to do the magnanimous act of lending a helping hand. ACI Charity Golf 08 has chosen four charities as our beneficiaries namely, St Andrew's Mission Hospital, Quality of Life Fund(run by the Community Development Council), Down Syndrome Association and Care Community Services Society. There were two different sets of golfers on that day. One who was greeted with the best weather you can get for golfing in Singapore and the other had their game delayed by intermittent rain but they had their fill of drinks during the rain delay! Nonetheless, we sincerely hope everyone had a good round of golf in a world class course. Last but not least, from the laughter and boisterous mood during the gala dinner, I gather that food, drinks, lucky dip, Deal or Not Deal game and live band must have been working their magic and making the evening a joyous one. See you again next year.
