Foreign inflow to Bursa Malaysia surges to RM1.06bil net

KUALA LUMPUR: The flow of foreign funds into Bursa Malaysia accelerated 3.6 times from the week before to RM1.06bil net, which represents the largest recorded net inflow in over two years.

The jump in foreign buying interest in Malaysian stocks came in tandem with an increase in foreign inflow to regional markets, spurred on by improved risk appetite for equities.
