Her experience includes initial public offerings and listings of securities on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited, as well as overseas exchanges, including NYSE and the HKEx. She is also well versed in secondary listings, secondary fund raisings, as well as pre-IPO fund raising exercises involving listed and private companies. With a firm grounding of the regulatory requirements, ability to problem solve and anticipate market trends, Mui Hui has successfully led listings of novel structures on the SGX-ST, such as the first listing of a variable interest entity structure on the SGX-ST (GHY Culture & Media), as well as listings by way of other non-traditional listing methods, such as listing by way of introduction (Comba Telecoms; Yangzijiang Financial).
