Global Capital Reset Takes Centre Stage at Hall Chadwick’s U.S. Capital Access Forum in Singapore

HONG KONG, March 20, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Against a backdrop of rising geopolitical tension, shifting trade alliances and accelerating technological disruption, global corporate leaders and investors gathered in Singapore last week for Hall Chadwick’s U.S. Capital Access Forum: the Art of an IPO, exploring how companies are repositioning themselves for a new era of global capital formation.Held over two days at Capella Hotel, Sentosa Island, Singapore, the Forum convened senior executives, capital markets leaders and technology innovators to examine the evolving relationship between capital markets, supply chains, emerging technologies and national economic strategy.Participants also explored how geopolitical competition, industrial policy and supply-chain realignment are reshaping investment flows across sectors including critical minerals, artificial intelligence, digital assets and financial infrastructure.The Forum featured Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, as keynote speaker. In his address, he discussed how the world is increasingly recognising the risks of strategic dependence within global supply chains and the need for nations and corporations to strengthen domestic and allied production capacity in critical sectors. He also emphasised that capital markets are increasingly shaped by geopolitical and policy considerations, particularly in areas such as energy, technology and industrial capability.The programme also brought together senior industry figures including Robert Friedland, Founder and Executive Co-Chairman of Ivanhoe Mines; Bob McCooey, Chairman of Nasdaq APAC; Mick McMullen, Chairman of Metals Acquisition Corp II; Dulguun Erdenebaatar, CEO of Boroo Pte Ltd; Jared Shaw, CFO of Animoca Brands; Amar Bedi, CEO of Tashi Network; Gary Dugan, CEO of The Global CIO Office; and David Brudenell, Co-CEO of Decidr.ai, and many more.Across the programme, speakers examined the growing convergence of capital markets, technology and geopolitics, with particular attention to how global companies can access U.S. capital markets while navigating regulatory shifts, supply-chain volatility and emerging technological disruption.Opening the Forum, Hall Chadwick Managing Partner Richard Albarran said the global investment landscape is entering a new phase in which capital access, technological capability and geopolitical positioning are increasingly intertwined.Richard Albarran, Managing Partner of Hall Chadwick, said: “We are entering a period where capital markets, critical resources and technological capability are becoming deeply intertwined with national economic strategy.This Forum was created to bring together global leaders to explore how companies can access U.S. capital markets while navigating an increasingly complex geopolitical and investment landscape.”Albarran noted that Hall Chadwick is actively supporting companies pursuing international capital strategies, including transactions announced during the Forum involving major critical minerals and energy infrastructure projects.A major theme across the Forum was the restructuring of global supply chains and the increasing strategic importance of energy transition resources and critical minerals, which are becoming central to both economic development and national security.During the panel discussion “The Supply Chain Scramble”, Mick McMullen, Chairman of Metals Acquisition Corp II, and Dulguun Erdenebaatar, Chief Executive Officer of Boroo Pte Ltd, joined Rod Colwell, CEO of Controlled Thermal Resources, and Tony Sage, CEO of Critical Metals Corp, to share their perspectives on the growing urgency of securing strategic resources, strengthening downstream processing capabilities and building more resilient supply chains amid rising geopolitical competition.Capital markets leaders also examined how global exchanges are adapting to evolving cross-border listing trends, particularly as companies explore U.S. IPO and SPAC structures to access international capital.Sharing at the panel discussion “Future Vibrancy on Nasdaq: AI & Robotics”, Bob McCooey, Chairman of Nasdaq APAC, said: “Most companies belong in their local markets, but every year a number of companies with global ambitions choose to list internationally. When they make that decision, we believe Nasdaq offers the strongest platform for global capital and liquidity.”Sessions also explored topics ranging from the institutional integration of digital assets and stablecoins, to the growing role of artificial intelligence in enterprise systems and capital markets infrastructure.Speakers highlighted the increasing strategic importance of AI-driven enterprise capability, with companies seeking to develop sovereign technology infrastructure capable of supporting global scale and resilience.Throughout the Forum, participants discussed how investors and corporations are navigating a period of heightened volatility while positioning themselves for the next phase of global economic growth.Many noted that the interplay between capital markets, geopolitical competition, technological innovation and industrial policy will likely define global investment strategies for the coming decade.The Forum concluded with a forward-looking discussion on how corporations and investors are adapting to a rapidly evolving global landscape shaped by geopolitical competition, supply-chain realignment and accelerating technological change. Participants noted that access to deep and liquid capital markets, particularly in the United States, will remain a critical advantage for companies seeking to scale globally, while cross-border hubs such as Singapore will continue to play an important role in facilitating capital flows between East and West.Reflecting the growing convergence between energy infrastructure, critical minerals and global capital markets, the Forum also coincided with the announcement of a proposed business combination between Controlled Thermal Resources (CTR) and Plum Acquisition Corp. IV, which would enable CTR to advance development of its Hell’s Kitchen geothermal and critical minerals project in California. Hall Chadwick is serving as exclusive corporate, financial and lead capital markets advisor to CTR on the transaction.Richard Albarran, Managing Partner, Hall Chadwick, delivers opening remarks at the U.S. Capital Access Forum: The Art of an IPO, held at Capella Hotel, Sentosa Island, Singapore.Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President, The Trump Organization, delivers the keynote address “Trade, Sovereignty & the Capital Reset” at the U.S. Capital Access Forum in Singapore.Robert Friedland, Founder and Executive Co-Chairman, Ivanhoe Mines, speaks during his keynote address “The Dawn of the Copper Age” at the U.S. Capital Access Forum.Bob McCooey, Chairman, Nasdaq APAC, speaks at the panel discussion “Future Vibrancy on Nasdaq: AI & Robotics” and delivers closing remarks at the U.S. Capital Access Forum.Panel discussion “The Supply Chain Scramble” at the U.S. Capital Access Forum.From left to right:Lucy Greenleaf, Co-master of ceremoniesRod Colwell, Chief Executive Officer, ACR;Mick McMullen, Chairman, Metals Acquisition Corp II;Tony Sage, Chief Executive Officer, Critical Metals Corp;Dulguun Erdenebaatar, Chief Executive Officer, Boroo Pte Ltd.

Illuminance announces global expansion and launch of its international platform

TORONTO, ON, March 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Illuminance has announced its entry into the international market simultaneously with the launch of its global platform, built on its own computational infrastructure powered by a distributed network of quantum nodes (Quantum Node). The platform is designed to support scalable operations across global financial markets, with a focus on high-frequency analytics and automated data processing.The modern economic landscape demands a fundamentally new type of infrastructure — one that goes beyond traditional financial products. With its international launch, Illuminance positions itself not as a standalone platform, but as a next-generation computational layer for the evolving financial ecosystem.At the core of this architecture is the Quantum Node — a distributed computational unit that forms the foundation of the entire system. These nodes are responsible for processing large volumes of market data, performing parallel analytical operations, and enabling high-speed decision-making across the network.Each quantum node contributes to the platform's overall computational power, allowing the system to dynamically scale as the network grows. This distributed approach ensures low latency, high throughput, and stable data processing even under heavy loads.The infrastructure is supported by the Illuminance Grid, which serves as the coordination layer. It synchronizes data flows between quantum nodes, manages task distribution, and aligns AI-based models in real time. Importantly, neither the grid nor the quantum nodes store users' funds or execute financial transactions directly — their role is strictly limited to computation and analysis, providing a clear separation between capital and infrastructure.This architecture enables Illuminance to overcome key limitations of both centralized and decentralized systems, particularly in areas such as high-frequency analytics and real-time market data processing. By separating financial execution from computational intelligence, the platform can operate at scale without overloads, making it highly effective for applications like automated crypto arbitrage.The system is built for continuous expansion. As more quantum nodes are integrated into the network, the platform's analytical capabilities grow, delivering deeper market insights and more efficient trade execution in global trading environments.The launch of the international platform marks a significant strategic milestone, positioning Illuminance as a provider of cutting-edge computational infrastructure for next-generation financial systems.About IlluminanceIlluminance is a technology company developing a high-performance computational layer for global financial markets. Its architecture is based on a distributed network of quantum nodes, complemented by the Illuminance Grid coordination system. Together, they form an infrastructure inspired by quantum technologies and optimized for automated crypto arbitrage. The platform focuses on real-world AI applications to ensure speed, scalability, and resilience in complex market conditions.Media Contact:corporate@illuminanceglobal.comhttps://illuminanceglobal.com Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Sunshine Insurance Delivers 2025 Results: Customer Operation System Continues to Innovate

HONG KONG, Mar 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Insurance is an important sector of the modern economy and plays a vital role in national economic development, people’s livelihood protection, social stability, and risk prevention and control. As a leading private insurance group in China, Sunshine Insurance (06963.HK) further advanced the implementation of its “New Sunshine Strategy” in 2025. Despite a complex market environment, the Company achieved steady progress while maintaining both quality and efficiency, demonstrating strong resilience and long-term growth potential.Value Creation Capability Continues to Rise, with Notable Progress in Business TransformationThe continued enhancement of value creation capability was a key highlight of Sunshine Insurance’s performance in 2025. During the Reporting Period, the Company’s total premium income reached RMB150.72 billion (all amounts in RMB unless otherwise stated), while net profit attributable to equity owners of the parent amounted to RMB6.31 billion, and embedded value steadily increased to RMB120.78 billion. Overall, the Company’s key performance indicators remained solid, and its operating quality continued to improve.Meanwhile, Sunshine Insurance has continuously optimized its business structure with outstanding performance in its life insurance business. It has deepened its “One Body, Two Wings” strategy and advanced the transformation of its sales team and product structure. In its individual insurance business, variable-returns products and protection-type products together accounted for more than half of the portfolio. The property and casualty insurance business also achieved sustained structural optimization: the proportion of non-automobile insurance premiums rose to 46.1%, the share of household auto premiums to the automobile insurance increased by 2.6 percentage points year-on-year, marking remarkable results from business transformation.Continuous Innovation in Customer Management System, Leading Reputation and Customer LoyaltyRefined customer management and innovative products and services form the core competitiveness of Sunshine Insurance. In 2025, adhering to the “people-centered” value orientation, the Company accurately addressed the full life-cycle needs of its customers and further consolidated its customer base.Addressing the unique needs of the silver-haired demographic, Sunshine Life Insurance launched 12 dedicated products under the “Better Life”series, delivering innovative breakthroughs in product design, eligible age, benefit payout structures and supporting services. The Company also upgraded its home-based elderly care services, which now cover 232 cities nationwide.

Additionally, the Company further advanced its “Partnership Action” risk management services, extending dedicated services to the onshore wind power sector and providing “professional + technology-enabled” risk solutions to 35,000 corporate clients. As a result, its service reputation and customer loyalty continued to lead the market.Accelerating Technological Innovation, Achieving Comprehensive Improvements in Operational EfficiencyTechnological innovation has become a new quality productivity driver for Sunshine Insurance’s high-quality development. In 2025, the Group comprehensively advanced the implementation of its “Robotics Engineering” and “Data Engineering” initiatives, with a large number of core AI applications successfully deployed. Sunshine Life independently developed an “AI Customer Management Assistant,” capable of second-level response times and quickly generating personalized customer management plans. The system has now been deployed across six major business platforms.Sunshine P&C has also launched a Claims Service Robot, leveraging a dedicated customer claims service group model to create a fully online, end-to-end service loop covering claim reporting, intelligent loss assessment, and claim payment. Customer inquiry response times have been shortened from minutes to seconds, claims inspection efficiency has improved by 20% compared with traditional models, and the customer satisfaction rate has reached 98%, significantly enhancing both service responsiveness and the overall claims experience.In terms of data engineering, Sunshine Insurance has innovatively built a siphon-style database, integrating the entire process of data collection, analysis, and application. This enables a self-driven, closed-loop operation of data, allowing data to truly become the “source of vitality” that drives business growth.Overall, the strong performance in 2025 serves as a vivid testament to Sunshine Insurance’s deepened strategic transformation and focus on high-quality development, and is also a significant result of technological innovation empowering its core insurance business. Looking ahead, the Company will remain committed to its founding mission of “bringing more sunshine to people,” further strengthening its core capabilities, deepening its engagement in people’s livelihood security, proactively aligning with national strategies, and delivering premium, more efficient and more human-centered insurance services to customers, thereby contributing Sunshine’s strength to the high-quality development of the industry.

GUOQUAN FOOD (2517.HK) Surging core operating profit, Four Stores Jointly Advancing with Concerted Efforts for Long-Term Growth

HONG KONG, Mar 17, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Guoquan Food (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 2517.HK, “Guoquan”) recently released its annual results for the year ended December 31, 2025. The company delivered a stellar performance, showcasing remarkable growth resilience within the community catering retail sector.The announcement reveals that while maintaining steady revenue growth, Guoquan has demonstrated a powerful surge in profitability. By adhering to its “community central kitchen” strategy, Guoquan has successfully converted its scale into a profit advantage through deep penetration of lower-tier markets, smart store upgrades, and the “one-product-one-factory” supply chain model.Strong Financial Performance Driven by Substantial Improvements in Earnings QualityIn 2025, Guoquan achieved synchronized growth in scale and efficiency, with financial performance exceeding market expectations. According to the annual results, for the year ended December 31, 2025, the company recorded total revenue of RMB 7.81 billion, a year-on-year (YoY) increase of 20.7%. Net profit reached RMB 454 million, representing a stunning YoY surge of 88.2%, marking a major milestone in the company’s profitability. The core operating profit (Non-IFRS measure), which excludes non-recurring items, amounted to RMB 461 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 48.2%. Notably, the profit growth rate significantly outpaced revenue growth, reflecting continuous optimization of earning efficiency. The core operating profit margin rose to 5.9%, further improving from 2024.In terms of profitability, the company maintained a stable gross margin of 21.6%. Cost control initiatives yielded significant results, as the growth rates of selling, distribution, and administrative expenses remained below the rate of revenue growth, allowing for the continuous release of economies of scale. Furthermore, the Board has proposed a final dividend of RMB 0.0381 per share (tax inclusive) for 2025. Total shareholder return via dividends and share repurchases for the full year amounted to approximately RMB 570 million.Elevating Network Scale and Quality Through Lower-tier Market Penetration and Intelligent EvolutionIn 2025, Guoquan further solidified its foundation as a ten-thousand-store enterprise, achieving dual breakthroughs in network scale and operational quality. As of December 31, 2025, the total store count rose to 11,566, with a net addition of 1,416 stores across 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities. The franchise-led network structure remained stable, supported by a mature and highly efficient operational system.Lower-tier markets functioned as a pivotal growth driver as the company accurately addressed consumption needs across counties and townships. In 2025, Guoquan achieved a net addition of 1,004 township stores, bringing the year-end total to 3,010 and representing 26.0% of the entire network. These township outlets have become a vital pillar of revenue growth by leveraging tailored product assortments and differentiated merchandising that align perfectly with the consumption patterns of lower-tier markets. Meanwhile, the company fast-tracked its intelligent transformation by completing smart and unmanned upgrades for over 3,000 retail stores during the year. The rollout of 24-hour unmanned outlets has successfully extended operating hours and reached a wider range of consumption scenarios, leading to a comprehensive elevation in both operational efficiency and service delivery.Enhancing Omni-channel Operations to Maximize Membership EcosystemGuoquan has built an instant retail network through the deep integration of online and offline channels, establishing the “Guoquan Instant Commerce” system to consistently enhance omni-channel conversion capabilities. The company’s social media and e-commerce performance was particularly strong, leveraging a multi-tiered TikTok (Douyin) account matrix to achieve over 9.41 billion platform exposures. This digital momentum drove store-level GMV on TikTok (Douyin) to RMB 1.49 billion, representing a significant year-on-year increase of 75.3%.The membership ecosystem reached a new milestone as registered members surged to 64.9 million by the end of 2025, up 57.1% year-on-year. The prepaid card program within this ecosystem yielded substantial results, with the year-end prepaid card balance reaching RMB 1.20 billion, a 22.3% increase from the previous year. This vast and highly engaged member base provides a robust foundation for maintaining stable store traffic and executing precision marketing strategies.Fortifying Competitive Moats through Integrated Product and Supply Chain ExcellenceGuided by its core product philosophy of “tasty, convenient and value-for-money”, Guoquan continued to diversify its product matrix in 2025 by launching 282 new SKUs in the hotpot and barbecue categories. The company upgraded its scenario-based offerings, including “Barbecue Camping Container Set”, “Crayfish Feast Set”, and “Six Popular Hot Pot Sets”, while expanding into the beverage segment with NFC fruit juices and craft beers to satisfy diverse consumer needs across all four daily meal occasions.The company also deepened its industrial footprint as the “one-product-one-factory” strategy yielded significant results. During the reporting period, Guoquan operated seven major food production facilities covering core categories such as seasonings, paste and aquatic products, and beef, creating a comprehensive production capacity matrix. The commencement of the Hainan Danzhou food production base further optimized the company’s supply chain radius. This integrated “production-supply-retail” closed-loop system has substantially enhanced upstream bargaining power and cost control, establishing an impenetrable supply chain moat.Scaling Innovative Formats and Unveiling the 2026 Four Stores Strategic BlueprintIn 2025, Guoquan actively explored new consumption scenarios with the successful rollout of innovative formats such as Guoquan Stir-fry and Guoquan Camping. These ventures have successfully extended the business from ingredient retail into freshly prepared meals and outdoor social dining, effectively unlocking a new growth curve for the company.Looking ahead to 2026, the company will focus on the synergistic development of four stores jointly advancing with concerted efforts—county and rural markets, community stores, Guoquan Stir-fry, and Guoquan Camping—to further penetrate lower-tier markets, upgrade community outlets, and expand innovative scenarios. Guoquan has set clear operational targets for 2026: total store count to exceed 14,500 with a net addition of over 2,934 outlets; maintaining a closure rate below 4%; expanding the registered member base to over 95 million; and ensuring that core operating profit growth significantly outpaces revenue growth.

Leveraging its “energy, alumina refining and aluminium smelting” integrated ecosystem, the Company’s current alumina and electricity self-sufficiency capacity covered 100% of its production and operations, effectively stabilizing production costs within a range minimally affected by market fluctuations. The Company currently operates a comprehensive aluminium smelter and an alumina refinery in Inner Mongolia and Shandong, with annual production capacities of 788,100 tons and 1.2 million tons respectively. It also possesses 2.98 million tons of aluminium hydroxide capacity, targeting an annual alumina capacity of 3 million tons. Relying on stable power provided by its captive power plants and the geographical advantage of proximity to bauxite import ports, the Company has mitigated the impact of external market price fluctuations on its operations.As of the end of 2025, the Company’s annual electrolytic aluminium labour productivity per capita reached as high as 670 tons, far exceeding the industry average of 300 to 400 tons per capita. This deep integration and scale effect across the entire industrial chain have positioned the Company at the forefront of Chinese aluminium smelting enterprises in terms of total cost management per ton of aluminium, building a highly competitive “economic moat” for profitability.Green Energy and Technological Upgrades Drive Further Improvements in ProfitabilityThe Company identifies “green and low-carbon” and “technological upgrades” as the core drivers for high-quality development. As of the end of 2025, the Company completed the construction of wind power plants with an installed capacity of 640 MW and solar power plants with an installed capacity of 110 MW. Green energy accounted for approximately 43% of total installed capacity and is expected to exceed 50% in 2026, far surpassing national industrial policy requirements. This not only significantly reduces the carbon footprint of production but also effectively lowers long-term energy costs.Meanwhile, the Company has comprehensively promoted the refined management of production technology, achieving intelligent control of the production process through the upgrade and transformation of cell control systems and automatic production line for aluminium ingot, as well as the installation of automatic laser cleaning device for guide rods. During the Reporting Period, the Company completed several core technology upgrades, including the recovery of waste heat from electrolytic flue gas and fully graphitized cathode retrofitting. This dual empowerment of technology and green initiatives has made the Company’s aluminium products a preferred choice in the international market, precisely meeting the low-carbon transition needs of industries such as lightweight automotive and 3C electronics, further expanding the high-end application market.Active Layout of Global Development Strategy to Enhance International CompetitivenessAs China’s electrolytic aluminium smelting capacity approaches the policy limit and overseas demand for downstream aluminium products continues to rise, the Company is actively responding to the Belt and Road Initiative.

FinHarbor Introduces Rapid-Deployment Neobank Platform for 30-Day Go-Live

NICOSIA, CYPRUS, Mar 17, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - FinHarbor recently announced a major update to its modular fintech infrastructure platform, expanding its crypto-fiat functionality and introducing a deeper orchestration layer across all modules. The updated platform bundles IBAN accounts, card issuing, payments and crypto-fiat exchange into a single stack, reducing typical launch timelines from more than a year to roughly one month. The company positions the platform as a ready-to-deploy foundation for fintech startups, embedded finance teams and licensed institutions that want to bring a financial product to market without building the entire stack internally.The problem it addressesLaunching a neobank from scratch is still a long and expensive process. Most teams need 15–20 engineers, more than a year of development, and roughly €1.5–2 million before the first customer can even open an account.FinHarbor's approach is to remove much of that upfront work. The platform comes with core components already integrated: pre-built connectors to banking partners for IBAN and account infrastructure, card processing, payment rails, and crypto wallets. In practice, this means companies can start with a working financial product instead of assembling and connecting multiple vendors themselves.What changed in the new releaseThe main change in the latest version is the introduction of a unified orchestration layer. Earlier versions of the platform offered modular components that could be connected together. The updated release adds a shared data model, a single audit log and compliance logic that operates across all modules.Clients now integrate through one API and operate under a single contract, while still keeping the option to replace individual components if needed.On the crypto side the platform has added extended custody capabilities for clients with specific blockchain integration requirements, broadening the range of supported networks and asset types. The compliance and AML tooling has also been updated, making it easier to configure the system to match each client's internal policies and risk frameworks across different jurisdictions.A recent deployment in four weeksOne EU-licensed fintech company recently used the updated platform to launch a full neobank in 28 days, including IBAN accounts, card issuance and crypto-fiat exchange.The first week focused on core infrastructure: setting up the environment, integrating identity verification through SumSub, and connecting to the banking partner's IBAN account infrastructure.During the second week the team activated card issuing and configured the platform's connections to SEPA, SWIFT, and international payment rails provided by the licensed banking partner.The third week introduced the crypto layer – custodial wallets, exchange logic and fiat ramps.The final week was dedicated to integration testing, white-label interface customisation and the production launch.According to the company, the only noticeable delays were related to compliance approvals with the partner bank – a regulatory step rather than a technical limitation.Industry perspective"The new release is based on a simple idea: orchestration matters more than integration," – said Ilya Podoynitsyn, CEO of FinHarbor."Connecting APIs from several vendors isn't the difficult part. The real challenge is making those components behave like a single product – with unified compliance rules, a shared audit trail and enough flexibility to avoid vendor lock-in. That's the engineering problem we focused on solving."Compliance and target usersThe platform includes built-in AML transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and configurable verification tiers. Suspicious activity reports can be generated in formats accepted by regulators, and every system action is recorded in a unified audit log accessible through the admin panel or API.Companies can operate under their own EMI, PI or VASP licence, or work through a licensed banking partner. The platform is designed to support both models and is aligned with regulatory frameworks such as MiCA and DORA.FinHarbor says the platform is primarily aimed at three types of clients: fintech startups launching an MVP, companies adding embedded financial services to an existing product, and regulated institutions – including banks or government organisations – that need on-premise infrastructure.It is best suited for companies looking to launch and iterate quickly on a proven infrastructure, rather than building every component from scratch.About FinHarborFinHarbor is a technical platform provider for launching compliant, modular financial products – from wallets and neobanks to crypto ramps and OTC desks. Built on years of real-world fintech experience, the platform covers onboarding, compliance, wallets, transactions, cards, and reporting, delivered with a microservice-based architecture (ISO/PCI DSS-certified), a robust API layer, and on-premise or cloud-ready deployment. FinHarbor supports fiat-only, crypto-native, and hybrid business models across markets in Europe, MENA, and beyond.Learn more: www.finharbor.comSocial LinksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/finharbor/Blog: https://www.finharbor.com/blog Media contactBrand: FinHarborContact: Media teamWebsite: https://www.finharbor.com/ Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
