KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia Bhd
has allowed an automatic one-month extension for the issuance of financial statements and annual reports for the Main, Ace and Leap Markets which are due on May 31 and June 30,2021.
In a statement, the local bourse said the one-month extension is for the issuance of quarterly and annual reports for the Main and Ace Markets as well as semi-annual and audited financial statements for the Leap Market.
“Since March 2020, the exchange has implemented various relief measures to ease regulatory compliance and aid listed issuers to navigate through the challenging times amid the Covid-19 pandemic while ensuring that the objectives and purpose of our regulatory framework are met, ” it added.
