This is the second year in a row that the score has been above 70. It also represents the largest quantum increase since 2020, when the rating jumped 8.6 points from 2019.

Professor Lawrence Loh, director of the Centre for Governance and Sustainability at NUS Business School, said the overall improvement reflects ongoing efforts by companies to promote good corporate governance practices.

The SGTI score for listed real estate investment trusts (Reits) and business trusts rose to 89.3 points, the fourth straight year that the mean score has been above 80.
