SGX CEO Loh Boon Chye's total pay rose 7.1% to $8.37 million in FY2026, driven by higher cash bonuses and long-term incentives after SGX's record revenue and profit year.

SGX reported a 13.9% revenue increase to $1.48 billion and a 24.6% net profit rise to $759.5 million, with strong stock market performance and investor confidence.

SGX plans to explore new market types like prediction markets, aims to fully repay debt in FY2027, and expects continued broad-based growth with dividend increases through FY2028.

SINGAPORE – Singapore Exchange (SGX) chief executive Loh Boon Chye raked in $8.37 million in total pay for the financial year ended June 30, as the exchange delivered a standout year with record-high revenue and net profit.

This was up 7.1% from the $7.82 million he earned in FY2025, with higher cash bonuses and long-term incentives accounting for nearly 85% of his total remuneration.

Loh received a cash bonus of $3.54 million for FY2026, up 8.4% from a year earlier, after achieving specific quantitative and qualitative targets and objectives set for the financial year, according to SGX’s FY2026 annual report released on Sept 29.

He was also awarded $3.54 million in long-term incentives, up 8.4% from FY2025, comprising performance shares tied to targets measured over three years and awards under SGX’s deferred long-term incentive scheme.

His fixed pay remained mostly unchanged at $1.21 million.

The bourse’s other top-paid executives were president Michael Syn, whose annual remuneration rose 16.2% to $3.45 million in FY2026, and Tan Boon Gin, CEO of Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo), who drew $2.44 million, up 7% from the year before.

These higher pay packages came after a standout FY2026 for SGX Group, which posted record revenue and net profit.

Revenue rose 13.9% to $1.48 billion, while adjusted net profit reached $759.5 million, up 24.6%.

Growth was broad-based across all operating segments, led by robust performance in the stock market following recent developmental and regulatory initiatives led by the Singapore Government and central bank.

The Straits Times Index crossed the 5,000 mark for the first time in February, while securities’ daily average value exceeded $2 billion in the final five months of FY2026.

In his annual letter to shareholders, Loh highlighted a healthy IPO pipeline, stronger trading activity and renewed participation across all investor and stock segments during the year, reflecting “growing confidence across the market”.

The exchange also recorded strong activity across its foreign exchange and commodities segments.

In the year ahead, Loh noted that the boundaries of traditional marketplaces are expanding, citing prediction markets in other jurisdictions as an example of how exchanges and trading venues are enabling participants to express their views and manage uncertainty.

Prediction markets are trading platforms where people buy and sell contracts based on whether a future event will occur.

He noted that SGX is studying these developments to determine whether new types of markets could meet its customers’ “genuine economic and risk-management needs”.

He added that SGX plans to fully repay its debt in FY2027 and remains confident of raising its quarterly dividend by 0.25 cent each year through FY2028.

The SGX board proposed a one-off additional dividend of 12.5 cents per share following capital recycling gains in FY2026, on top of a previously guided fourth-quarter dividend, bringing total dividends to 57 cents per share.

That is a 52% increase from the previous financial year.

Loh said SGX expects broad-based growth across its operating segments to continue into FY2027, and maintained the medium-term guidance for group revenue to grow by 6% to 8%.

受新加坡交易所创纪录的收入和利润年度的推动，新加坡交易所首席执行官罗文财在 2026 财年的总薪酬增长了 7.1%，达到 837 万美元，这主要得益于更高的现金奖金和长期激励措施。

新加坡交易所公布，受股市强劲表现和投资者信心提振，营收增长13.9%至14.8亿美元，净利润增长24.6%至7.595亿美元。

新加坡交易所计划探索预测市场等新市场类型，目标是在 2027 财年全额偿还债务，并预计在 2028 财年之前实现持续的全面增长，同时提高股息。

新加坡——截至6月30日的财年，新加坡交易所（SGX）首席执行官罗文财的总薪酬为837万美元，该交易所也取得了创纪录的收入和净利润，度过了出色的一年。

这比他在 2025 财年获得的 782 万美元增长了 7.1%，更高的现金奖金和长期激励措施占其总薪酬的近 85%。

根据新加坡交易所 9 月 29 日发布的 2026 财年年度报告，罗先生在 2026 财年获得了 354 万美元的现金奖金，比上年增长 8.4%，因为他实现了该财年设定的具体定量和定性目标。

他还获得了 354 万美元的长期激励奖金，比 2025 财年增长 8.4%，其中包括与三年内衡量的目标挂钩的业绩股份，以及根据新加坡交易所递延长期激励计划获得的奖励。

他的固定薪酬基本保持不变，为 121 万美元。

该交易所其他薪酬最高的管理人员包括总裁 Michael Syn，其 2026 财年的年薪酬增长 16.2% 至 345 万美元；以及新加坡交易所监管公司 (SGX RegCo) 首席执行官 Tan Boon Gin，其薪酬为 244 万美元，比上一年增长 7%。

在新加坡交易所集团2026财年业绩表现突出，创下营收和净利润新高之后，这些更高的薪酬方案也随之出台。

营收增长 13.9% 至 14.8 亿美元，调整后净利润达到 7.595 亿美元，增长 24.6%。

在所有运营部门中均实现了全面增长，这主要得益于新加坡政府和中央银行近期推出的发展和监管举措带动股市强劲表现。

海峡时报指数在2月份首次突破5000点大关，而2026财年最后五个月的证券日均成交额超过20亿美元。

罗先生在致股东的年度信中强调，本年度IPO项目储备充足，交易活动更加活跃，所有投资者和股票板块的参与度均有所提高，这反映出“市场信心日益增强”。

该交易所的外汇和商品交易板块也呈现强劲的交易活跃态势。

罗先生指出，未来一年传统市场的边界正在扩大，他以其他地区的预测市场为例，说明交易所和交易场所如何让参与者表达自己的观点并管理不确定性。

预测市场是人们根据未来事件是否会发生而买卖合约的交易平台。

他指出，新加坡交易所正在研究这些发展趋势，以确定新型市场是否能够满足其客户“真正的经济和风险管理需求”。

他还补充说，新加坡交易所计划在 2027 财年全额偿还债务，并有信心在 2028 财年之前每年将季度股息提高 0.25 分。

新加坡交易所董事会提议，在2026财年资本再投资收益的基础上，额外派发一次性每股12.5分的股息，加上此前已公布的第四季度股息，使总股息达到每股57分。

这比上一财政年度增长了52%。

Loh表示，新加坡交易所预计其各个运营部门的全面增长将持续到2027财年，并维持集团收入中期增长6%至8%的预期。
