AI-enhanced real-time market surveillance
SGX RegCo reported higher-quality surveillance alerts after adding AI
Problem
Movements across related markets created noise that made unusual trading harder to isolate.
Approach
SGX RegCo added AI to its real-time monitoring system. The system learned historical trading patterns and filtered market noise, leaving surveillance staff to review a smaller set of unusual signals. It also identified stocks whose prices stayed artificially steady while broader markets moved.
Results
No published figures
Takeaway
Surveillance staff retained responsibility for reviewing the signals. SGX reported better alerts without publishing an accuracy measure or a reduction in investigation time.
