Perth, March 20: Global investors, corporate leaders and technology executives recently gathered in Singapore for Hall Chadwick’s U.S. Capital Access Forum, where discussions focused on how geopolitical tensions, supply-chain shifts and technological disruption are reshaping global capital markets.
Held over two days at Capella Hotel on Sentosa Island, the forum examined how companies are repositioning to access international capital, particularly in the United States, while navigating regulatory change, industrial policy and emerging technologies.
Richard Albarran, Managing Partner of Hall Chadwick, said: “We are entering a period where capital markets, critical resources and technological capability are becoming deeply intertwined with national economic strategy.
This Forum was created to bring together global leaders to explore how companies can access U.S. capital markets while navigating an increasingly complex geopolitical and investment landscape.”
Keynote speaker Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, told attendees that global supply chains are becoming increasingly influenced by geopolitical considerations, particularly in sectors such as energy, technology and industrial capability.
The forum also featured senior industry figures including Ivanhoe Mines founder Robert Friedland, Nasdaq APAC chairman Bob McCooey, Metals Acquisition Corp II chairman Mick McMullen, Boroo Pte Ltd CEO Dulguun Erdenebaatar and executives from Animoca Brands, Tashi Network and Decidr.ai.
Bob McCooey, Chairman of Nasdaq APAC, said: “Most companies belong in their local markets, but every year a number of companies with global ambitions choose to list internationally. When they make that decision, we believe Nasdaq offers the strongest platform for global capital and liquidity.”
Discussions covered topics including artificial intelligence, digital assets, critical minerals, energy transition and cross-border listings, with participants noting that access to deep capital markets and resilient supply chains will be central to global investment strategies in the coming decade.
