Economic Update




The Financial Markets Committee (FMC) had on Friday (2 Dec) announced measures to broaden the domestic foreign exchange (FX) market to improve liquidity, effective Monday (5 Dec). The measures are expected:
1. To provide support and stabilise the MYR in the immediate term;
2. However, this would add to the cost of doing business for exporters.

Over the medium-term, we believe it is still more important to enhance confidence on the fundamentals of the Malaysian economy in order to provide a support to the MYR.
