Quantitative Attribution: Foreign Institutional Flow Attribution & Balance-Sheet Positioning#

When cross-checked against Singapore MAS S$6.5 Billion Equity Market Development Programme (EQDP) at S$5.4B (Deployed Across 14 Managers) (Source: Monetary Authority of Singapore, 2026-10-20), desks isolating weekly net foreign buying across cash equities, index futures, and sovereign debt capture a measurable structural spread while maintaining full alignment with MAS / Singapore EDB guidelines (S$50.0M Minimum SGX Equity Allocation, Source: MAS / Singapore EDB, 2026-10-18).
