Higher risks to Malaysia's growth prospects

Fitch Solutions said it will be revisiting its long-term outlook for the Malaysian economy over the coming weeks

PETALING JAYA: The downside risks to Malaysia’s long-term growth prospects are rising as a result of political uncertainty and increasing polarisation, said Fitch Solutions.

The research house said it will be revisiting its long-term outlook for the Malaysian economy over the coming weeks, given that the political instability was shaping up to be more than just a temporary issue following the 2018 general elections.
