Singapore’s next mandate: Turning the SGX-Nasdaq ‘bridge’ into durable growth
Every player in our capital market ecosystem must pitch in to drive the success of the initiative
THE landmark “dual-listing bridge” announced by the SGX and Nasdaq is an important part of the plan by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to revitalise the local equities market.
Providing a simplified path for large companies in Asia to access growth capital and liquidity in both the US and Asia simultaneously, this initiative fundamentally aims to reposition Singapore as a key hub for Asian growth company listings.
With over 60 South-east Asian unicorns operating regionally, this dual-listing framework is the mechanism for Singapore to solidify its position as the listing gateway for the region’s next generation of public market champions.
