The government has launched the InvestMalaysia portal, positioning it as a one-stop gateway for investors seeking insights into Malaysia’s economic and financial landscape. This portal is designed as a centralised resource for businesses, investors, and industry leaders interested in understanding and accessing investment opportunities within Malaysia. 

By centralising these resources, the platform also aims to make Malaysia a more competitive and attractive destination for both domestic and international investments. 

The InvestMalaysia portal is designed for various audiences, from individual investors to institutional investors, venture capitalists, and companies looking to set up operations in Malaysia. It provides users with comprehensive resources, including insights in Malaysia’s economic outlook, national policies, business environment, and sector-specific market data.  

Through this digital platform, prospective investors and business leaders can make well-informed decisions by accessing a wide array of data and insights essential for identifying and evaluating opportunities within Malaysia’s financial markets, and more importantly connecting them to relevant government agencies.

Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan emphasised the portal’s role in bridging information gaps for investors.

“The InvestMalaysia Portal aims to address the gap of finding that final bit of information about investing in Malaysia. What we have built is a platform where you enter with questions and exit with answers, or at the very least, are pointed in the right direction to find the right information,” he said in his speech. 

Amir also noted that, together with the Investor Relations Office, the portal will act as a navigator for portfolio investors looking to engage with Malaysia’s markets.

Bank Negara Malaysia governor Datuk Seri Abdul Rasheed Ghaffour highlighted the portal as a testament to Malaysia’s economic resilience and investment potential.

“Ultimately, the platform is akin to an arbiter of Malaysia’s macroeconomic strength and investment potential, one that extracts signals about the state and prospects of the country’s economy and financials, and imparts them seamlessly to investors,” he said.

The central bank anticipates that the InvestMalaysia portal will play a crucial role in attracting quality investments that will further strengthen Malaysia’s financial markets. These anticipated capital inflows are expected to stimulate economic growth and contribute significantly towards Malaysia’s journey to high-income status.
