5号议员刘武扬安德烈问副总理兼贸易与工业部长:(a) 新加坡竞争与消费者委员会是否正在审查Meta收购本地人工智能初创公司Manus的事项;(b) 部门如何评估此类收购对新加坡本土人工智能创新生态系统竞争力的影响;(c) 现行的合并申报框架是否仍然适用。
颜金勇部长答:新加坡采用自愿合并申报制度,以在有效监管与降低合规成本及不扼杀创新之间取得平衡。合并各方应自行评估其交易是否可能引发潜在的竞争问题。他们可以向新加坡竞争与消费者委员会(CCS)寻求合并前的讨论或指导,以判断合并是否可能具有反竞争性。
CCS目前并未审查Meta收购Manus一事。相关各方尚未向CCS申报合并评估,且没有理由表明该收购可能在新加坡引发潜在的竞争问题。若CCS获得相反信息,有权介入调查。
新加坡的人工智能(AI)创新生态系统非常活跃,许多公司和初创企业开发各种产品和服务。合并与收购是初创企业及其投资者常见的退出策略,尤其是在新兴且快速发展的领域。CCS将持续监控人工智能市场的发展,确保其保持竞争性并促进创新。

5 Mr Low Wu Yang Andre asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry (a) whether the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore is reviewing Meta's acquisition of local AI start-up Manus; (b) how the Ministry assesses the impact of such acquisitions on the competitiveness of Singapore's domestic AI innovation ecosystem; and (c) whether the current merger notification framework remains adequate.
Mr Gan Kim Yong : Singapore adopts a voluntary merger notification regime to balance between effective regulatory oversight while keeping compliance costs low and not stifling innovation. Merger parties are expected to self-assess whether their transaction gives rise to potential competition concerns. They may approach the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCS) for pre-notification discussions or seek guidance on whether the merger may be anti-competitive.
CCS is not currently reviewing Meta's acquisition of Manus. The parties involved have not notified CCS for a merger assessment and there has been no reason to suggest that the acquisition may result in potential competition issues in Singapore. CCS is empowered to step in if it obtains information suggesting otherwise.
Singapore's artificial intelligence (AI) innovation ecosystem is a vibrant one, with many companies and start-ups developing a broad range of products and services. Mergers and acquisitions is a common exit strategy for start-ups and their investors, especially in a new, fast-growing sector. CCS will monitor developments in the AI market to ensure that it remains competitive and facilitates innovation.
