Shawn Baldwin, Chairman of AIA Group, Joins Delegation at Forbes Global CEO Conference in Singapore

SHANGRI-LA, Singapore, Nov. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Shawn Baldwin, global investments advisor and Chairman of AIA Group, joined some of the world's most influential change agents in business and finance at the Forbes Global CEO Conference October 28-30. The invitation-only conference brought together about 400 CEOs, thought leaders, up-and-comers and some of the brightest minds in research and advisory services.

Held annually, this year's gathering focused on how to perpetuate and master progress from one success to another, creating sustainable and generational wealth. Baldwin, who is based in Chicago, is known for his extensive research, advisory and investment banking prowess spanning industries and continents over nearly three decades. Each of the delegates must be a leader within his or her organization, from the vice chairman level up.

The AIA Group is an advisory and investment firm that specializes in the foreign exchange, derivatives and commodities markets.

"Global competitiveness will be a key issue for firms as advanced economies gain traction, while the emerging economies begin to moderate and face fresh challenges in a fluctuating interest rate world," Baldwin says. "In this environment, navigating investments into currencies, commodities and venture capital will be more important than ever—having this forum to discuss these topics is critical."

The conference opened with remarks by Forbes Media President and CEO Mike Perlis and a one-on-one between Lee Hsien Loong, prime minister, the Republic of Singapore, and Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief and chairman of Forbes Media LLC.
