KUALA LUMPUR: Fundraising through Malaysia’s capital market is expected to remain robust this year, although the number is unlikely to outpace the exceptionally strong performance of 2017.
Based on current estimates, total capital raising through primary and secondary markets could reach RM120bil in 2018, according to the Securities Commission (SC). Last year, fundraising totalled RM146.6bil, exceeding the regulator’s initial target of RM105bil. It was also a record high and above the five-year average of RM116bil.
