Capital FlightFamily OfficesReal-World AssetsSingapore Policy

Adviser to sovereign wealth vehicles, family offices, and government economic development bodies across Southeast Asia, with a primary focus on Singapore's integration of real-world asset frameworks into forward-facing digital economic policy. Myrdal spent the first half of her career tracking capital flight; the quiet, continuous movement of productive wealth away from jurisdictions that failed to protect it, toward those demonstrating institutional reliability and regulatory clarity.

She now sits on the other side of that equation, helping Singapore position itself as the destination rather than the origin. Her work examines how tokenised real-world assets are restructuring the geography of global capital; where it accumulates, how it is secured, and which jurisdictions are building the infrastructure to attract and retain it long term.
