PETALING JAYA: CGS International Securities Malaysia Sdn Bhd has appointed Khairi Shahrin Arief Baki as chief executive officer (CEO) and Alan Inn Wei Loon as country head, following its leadership transition announced on Nov 25, 2025.
In a statement, the brokerage said Khairi would lead its strategic businesses and local operations, while Alan would focus on regional and cross-border growth.
“Malaysia’s Asean chairmanship and growth themes in digital technology, energy transition, and healthcare brought CGS MY to several high points in 2025.
“In 2026, we look forward to sharing progressive results of these activities, as CGS MY continues to serve as an important gateway to connect and facilitate vital partnerships and capital flows to materialise Malaysia’s high-growth, high-value economy aspirations,” Khairi said.
He said CGS MY’s China-Asean heritage positions the firm well to support Malaysia and local businesses partnering with Chinese companies across sectors such as digital technology, renewable energy and artificial intelligence, spanning government-to-government, business-to-government and retail engagements.
Khairi said CGS MY would continue to expand its financial literacy initiatives, with new campaigns planned for the year ahead that would leverage strategies such as gamification of educational content to better engage youths and adults seeking foundational financial knowledge.
As CGS MY’s new CEO, Khairi will continue to drive strategic and operational excellence in CGS MY with strong emphasis on regulatory stewardship and market expansion.
“As highlighted in CGS MY’s Navigating Malaysia Report, we are entering 2026 on a solid footing, with our KLCI target set for 1,810. This is supported by Malaysia’s low exposure to global tariff risks, favourable exemptions from US reciprocal tariffs within Asean, steady ringgit from a narrowing US-Malaysia interest rate differential, and stable policy environments,” said Khairi.
Alan, as country head, will lead growth across asset and wealth management, investment banking, private equity and cross-border opportunities, leveraging his extensive investment banking experience.
