Mark Wee, head of equity capital markets at UOB, called the GLB a “positive initiative” for introducing a streamlined process, framework, and documentation for simultaneous dual listings.
The Global Listing Board (GLB), which seeks to simplify dual listings on both the Singapore Exchange (SGX) and Nasdaq, was welcomed by market ecosystem stakeholders as another helpful push towards sustaining the revival of the Singapore market.
The partnership was first announced by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and SGX on Nov 19, 2025, as part of the Equities Market Review Group’s final recommendations. The MAS, on Jan 9, said it will consult on the proposed amendments to the Securities and Futures Act 2001 (SFA) and draft regulations to facilitate dual listings on the new board.
