Valuing Up Public Markets:Promoting Value Creation and Market Development

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 12 March 2026

Public markets are facing mounting structural challenges. IPO activity remains subdued, while the rapid growth of private markets is reshaping capital formation, valuation dynamics, and investor access.

In response, regulators and market operators in several jurisdictions have introduced “value-up” initiatives and related reforms, combining governance, disclosure enhancements, listing-regime modernisation and market-structure improvements – to strengthen the attractiveness and competitiveness of public markets.

This webinar will bring together regulators and market experts to share experiences and practical insights on how jurisdictions are seeking to revitalise public markets, support fair valuation and market confidence, and encourage broader participation.

Session Highlights:

Trends in Capital Formation: Why Public Markets Need a “Value-Up” Agenda – WFE

Public-Market “Value-Up” Reforms across Jurisdictions – JFSA, ASIC, UK FCA

Implementing Exchange-led Reforms : From Policy Design to Market Practice – SGX RegCo

Participants will gain insights into policy approaches and market reforms that may be relevant to their domestic market contexts.
