Malaysia To Align Real Economy & Capital Market To Drive Inclusive Growth
Malaysia is focusing on aligning its real economy with capital market developments to reinvent its economic framework, aiming for equitable wealth distribution and growth across sectors, said Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan. The country's economy has seen robust performance this year, averaging 5.2% growth in the first three quarters, and has seen a surge in market activity, with 46 new IPOs introduced, reflecting a strong market pipeline.
Malaysia Proposes Changes to Global Financial Architecture for Fair Trade
Malaysian Prime Minister Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim stressed the importance of reforming the global financial architecture to support free trade and ensure that small countries are not discriminated against. He raised this issue at several international conferences, including the APEC Economic Leaders' Week and the G20 Summit. Anwar pointed out that the rise of protectionism, even among G20 countries that originally supported the principle of free trade, is a phenomenon that cannot be ignored, so he proposed reforms to the International Monetary Fund and the World Trade Organization to promote free trade for small countries, including Malaysia.
