What matters today
SGX's next eligibility review is scheduled for January 2027, with changes taking effect in February. A move to the next round level of EUR 55.00 would be 7.55 percent above the pre-market price. The revised board-lot framework initially covers 11 counters, including DBS Group.
Smaller board lots on SGX
The board-lot change took effect on October 5, 2026, and applies to stocks priced above S$10 and up to S$100. For qualifying shares, the reduction cuts the capital needed for a standard lot by 90 percent, according to the PRNewswire release. The measure does not constitute a stock split, and the release said share prices and company valuations are unchanged. SGX reviews eligibility quarterly.
