(Reuters) -Chipmaker GlobalFoundries, owned by Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund Mubadala Investment Co, is aiming for a valuation of about $25 billion in its initial public offering in the United States.

The IPO, one of the most hotly anticipated listings this year, is expected to cap a record year for flotations, after several big names such as Robinhood Markets Inc, Coinbase Global Inc and Roblox Corp took advantage of a boom in capital markets earlier this year.
