This second edition covers legislative developments as well as changes and developments to the Securities Industry, SGX-ST ListingManual and the SGX-ST Business Rules. Substantive changes have been introduced by the Securities and Futures (Amendment) Acts of 2004, 2005 and 2009 since the first edition of this book was published in 2004. This book also discusses a number of significant Singapore cases which were reported recently and has also incorporated discussions on a number of interesting disclosure cases since the last edition.

The cases are:
- Vita Health Laboratories Pte Ltd v Pang SengMeng [2004] SGHC 158

A new part has been added at the end of Chapter 8 which discusses comparative difficulties in bringing securities class action litigation in Singapore as a tool to aid in the enforcement of corporate disclosure.
