About Global Markets
Africa needs more choices.
More sources of capital.
More banking relationships.
More trading partners.
More markets.
More ways to finance infrastructure, businesses and trade.
Asia can provide many of those choices.
Global Markets was built in Singapore to connect the two.
What we are
Global Markets Pte. Ltd. is an institutional capital-and-markets execution platform headquartered in Singapore.
We work with African
- Governments
- Development Finance Institutions
- Banks
- Financial Institutions
- Businesses
And connect them with Asian and international
- Banks
- Investors
- Policy Institutions
- ECAs
- Insurers
- Market Infrastructure
Our work is concentrated in four areas.
Why Singapore
Singapore sits at the centre of one of the world’s deepest and most sophisticated financial regions. It gives us access to Asian banks, institutional capital, financial-market infrastructure, technology and professional expertise.
But location alone creates no advantage.
Relationships and execution do.
African depth
We understand African financial institutions because our experience comes from inside them. We understand the demands of boards, regulators, credit committees, governments and development institutions.
African institutions do not need another intermediary telling their story for them. They need someone capable of putting them in the right room, preparing them properly and helping them execute.
Part of DWM
Global Markets is the Capital & Markets platform within DWM. DWM’s purpose is broader: Making Africa Competitive. It builds against three major constraints to competitiveness.
Capital & Markets
Global Markets Singapore
Institutional Capability
The Banking Academy
Entrepreneurship
Pivot Africa, a DWM × iiAfrica partnership
Global Markets addresses the first.
How we work
Selectively
We would rather execute a small number of serious mandates than accumulate engagements.
Institutionally
We work with professional and institutional counterparties. We do not provide retail financial services.
With discipline
Every serious transaction requires control of information, clear responsibilities and disciplined execution.
Toward an outcome
A meeting is not success. A roadshow is not success. A presentation is not success.
Capital raised. Trade financed. Relationships converted into transactions. Those are outcomes.
Start a conversation.
Global Markets works with institutional and professional counterparties across Africa and Asia.
