The Singapore Exchange and Nasdaq plan to establish a “dual-listing bridge” that will allow companies to list on both bourses using one set of listing documents, a move aimed attracting good quality Asian firms with at least S$2 billion (US$1.53 billion) in market capitalisation.
According to the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the bridge, expected to be launched in mid-2026, will provide a “direct and harmonised pathway for companies to simultaneously access capital and liquidity across North America and Asia”.
The key difference from existing dual-listing arrangements is that firms seeking to go public will only have to submit one prospectus to both bourses.
“The bridge aims to attract quality growth companies in Asia with market capitalisation of S$2 billion and above,” MAS says in a statement on November 19.
