SBF to boost global trade and investment with new initiative

SBF will enhance cross-border trade, develop private sector advocacy, and cultivate future industry leaders.

The Singapore Business Federation (SBF) plans to set up a Centre for the Future of Trade and Investment (CFOTI).

The initiative aims to boost trade and investment by enhancing Singapore and regional businesses' global trade capabilities, developing private sector advocacy, and cultivating future trade leaders to create innovative solutions.

The CFOTI will build on SBF’s existing initiatives, including GlobalConnect@SBF, the FTA Education and Outreach program, and business representations in multilateral forums.

A committee led by Mr. Gan Seow Kee, former Vice Chairman of SBF and former Chairman and MD of ExxonMobil Asia Pacific, will guide the formation of the CFOTI.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
