AI Reshaping Business Operations and Accelerating Digital Transformation

The firm also advanced AI‑driven investment research systems and a company‑wide data infrastructure, embedding AI across key platforms, including the CAMS Intelligent Credit Research Platform, the global integrated FICC trading platform and the global market-making and investment platform. The Company’s proprietary Global Trading Platform (GTP) was fully launched, with multiple initiatives, including “Research and Practical Application of Cybersecurity Attack Surface Management in the Securities Industry”, winning second prize at the 2024 Financial Technology Development Award.

Global Expansion as a Key Growth Driver

In 2025, Huatai made key advances across major markets, securing SGX Mainboard sponsor status and India market access, NYSE IPO lead underwriter and non‑US sovereign bond broker‑dealer qualifications, and establishing its Japanese subsidiary. These milestones extended the firm’s reach across Asia, Europe and the Americas.

Huatai continued to integrate its onshore and offshore operations as global expansion accelerated, with its global trading platform connecting major financial centres including Hong Kong, New York, London and Singapore. In 2025, the firm sponsored 22 Hong Kong IPOs, ranking third in the market, and participated in eight of the ten largest deals, while publishing 830 overseas research reports covering 420 listed companies.

Huatai has maintained an MSCI ESG rating of AAA for two consecutive years and continues to support the green and low‑carbon transition through a broad range of financial instruments. In 2025, the firm completed RMB 22.8 billion in green equity underwriting, underwrote RMB 23.1 billion of green bonds and issued RMB 8.2 billion of green ABS, while ranking among industry leaders in China’s voluntary carbon market.

Looking ahead, Huatai Securities remains committed to serving the real economy and investors by strengthening technology‑driven capabilities and expanding its global footprint to support Chinese enterprises’ international ambitions and the high‑quality development of China’s capital markets.

The versatility of services offered by the company enables them to serve clients from large multinational corporations to medium enterprises across sectors, such as technology, hospitality and financial services.

To deliver stronger connected care to its clients, Cigna Healthcare Singapore works with healthcare providers and partners, including Alliance Healthcare (Cigna Care Connect) and iXchange (IXPL), to expand access to quality care for members.

Evolving with experience, developing future-focused solutions

Singapore is facing medical inflation of 16.9% this year, a trend which is set to drive a significant shift in the healthcare landscape. In response to this trend, Cigna Healthcare Singapore partnered with iXchange, a third-party administrator arm of IHH Healthcare, to launch value-based contracts late last year, helping curb rising premiums driven by higher costs and chronic conditions, while advancing cost management, sustainable care and AI-enabled efficiencies.

“Congratulations! We are proud to deepen our partnership with Cigna Healthcare Singapore as it celebrates 15 years of excellence. Collectively, IHH Healthcare Singapore and Cigna are focused on better cost and care management, ensuring that members are able to receive sustainable, high-quality healthcare to look after their well-being.

“Alliance Healthcare is honoured to be a key partner in the evolution of Cigna Care Connect. Our collaboration is a strong testament to our shared vision to deliver cost-effective, yet quality healthcare that aligns with providers, members and clients. We look forward to many more years of delivering connected, world-class care that supports members through every stage of their corporate lives,” commented Dr. Barry Thng, Executive Chairman and CEO of Alliance Healthcare Group

The convergence of experience, innovation and human expertise ensures that both organisations and employees of Cigna Healthcare Singapore receive seamless, effective and personalised health solutions, keeping the company ahead in an evolving healthcare landscape.

A discerning client engagement with a refined exclusive four-hand dining experience crafted by acclaimed “Culinary Class Wars Season 2” Chefs

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 31 March 2026 – DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited (“DBS Hong Kong”) today unveiled DBS ARTable 2026, marking the return of its signature exclusive experience for discerning wealth clientele. Building on the resounding success of its inaugural year, DBS ARTable 2026 offers an elevated exploration into the profound intersection of art, wealth and legacy, fostering an enriching dialogue for those who appreciate both artistic expression with sophisticated gastronomy.

DBS ARTable 2026 brought together art and gastronomy to illuminate the growing relevance in wealth strategies. The event opened with an insightful dialogue between Sebastian Paredes, Head of North Asia and Chief Executive Officer of DBS Hong Kong, and renowned award-winning actress, ceramicist and art curator, Karena Lam. Their captivating discussion highlighted the booming global art market and the rise of cross disciplinary creativity. Their exchange also delved into the profound significance of art from different perspectives, from cultural appreciation to legacy planning.

Sebastian Paredes, Head of North Asia and Chief Executive Officer of DBS Hong Kong said, “At DBS, we believe the true wealth extends far beyond mere financial metrics and numbers; it encompasses culture and the legacy. The Chefs have crafted dishes inspired by artistic concepts, transforming ideas into flavours, and stories into edible experiences. ARTable is conceived as more than just an exclusive event; it is a platform where creativity, gastronomic and personal expression converge, inviting our clients to explore new perspectives on taste and style.”

The highlight of the evening is the extraordinary 4-hand dining experience, a collaborative masterpiece by Chef Jun Lee and Chef Nara Yun. Chef Jun Lee, known for his innovative approach to Korean cuisine, presented a special dumpling dish paired with gim, a Korean seaweed sauce. This dish was inspired by the “Black and White” concept from “Culinary Class Wars”. On the show, the line between two sides—black and white—was where the most exciting moments and represented the golden moment everyone always seek. Complementing this, Chef Nara Yun introduced her Hondonju, a meticulously self-brewed drink inspired by an ancient Korean tradition of blending spirits, designed to perfectly enhance the delicate textures and savoury depths of Chef Lee’s creation. This unique culinary collaboration promises an unforgettable exploration of taste and artistry for DBS’ esteemed clients.

Further enriching the artistic journey, DBS Private Bank, in partnership with Christie’s Hong Kong, presented the “Dialogue Beyond The Senses” art exhibition. This exclusive showcase featured contemporary masterpieces by renowned artists such as Yayoi Kusama, Hilary Pecis and Fernando Botero, offering attendees a unique opportunity to immerse in diverse artistic expressions.

DBS ARTable, presented by Tatler, is a flagship initiative under the bank’s “DBS Culinary Delights”, a programme dedicated to offering DBS’ wealth clients unparalleled access to elevated cultural and gastronomic experiences.
