Singapore

ASIAN markets have the greatest growth opportunity and could gain the largest share of global capital markets over the next few decades, a study has found.

The average global share of Asian capital markets is expected to increase from 31 per cent in 2017 to as much as 49 per cent in 20 years, with half the growth expected to come from China, according to a global capital markets index developed by the Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) and capital markets advisory firm New Financial.
