The Securities Association of Singapore (SAS)

The Securities Association of Singapore was registered and formed on 11 December 2001 which opens an exciting chapter for the stockbroking industry for companies from the securities and investment industry. The SAS actively engages regulators and policymakers and other players in the securities industry, on strategic, regulatory, technology and operational issues and systems affecting the industry.

It provides a common platform for corporate members to meet and discuss key issues concerning the industry and present collective views and proposals to regulators and authorities. Members include retail broking houses and foreign/institutional stockbrokers. 

A new chapter has been formed for Associate Members who offer Contracts for Difference (CFDs) and Foreign Exchange Margin Trading. The new chapter aims to promote CFDs and LFX Margin Trading among investors and uplift the high industry standards through public education by making sure they understand the investment products and risks involved.
