AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Ministerial Pay Overhaul: Singapore will raise PM Lawrence Wong’s annual pay package by nearly 64% to about S$3.6m, with the increase donated to charity over five years, marking the first ministerial pay adjustment in 15 years. AI in Finance: MAS says AI is moving from pilots to core banking workflows, but banks need guardrails and controls before productivity gains become real at scale. Tokenised Money Testing: DBS, OCBC and UOB have completed interbank trials using tokenised Singapore-dollar deposits coordinated via Swift’s ledger—an early step toward more programmable money. UNCLOS in Singapore: Cambodia’s TVK will broadcast live the first Cambodia–Thailand UNCLOS conciliation meeting session from Singapore, with Khmer, English and Thai webcasts. Regional Tech Push: Malaysia’s George Kent is partnering Extreme Vision to commercialise agentic AI across Malaysia and Singapore, aiming to expand into ASEAN enterprise deployments. Crypto Court Case: A 22-year-old Singaporean, Malone Lam, pleaded guilty in US federal court to racketeering conspiracy tied to a ~$245m bitcoin theft, with sentencing later this year. Public Safety Policy: Parliament discussion on chemical castration for sex offenders continues, with the government saying current effectiveness evidence is not conclusive.
