Banking sector resilience to support markets

BNM said market valuations of listed banks, as measured by price-to-book and price-to-earnings ratios, remained broadly anchored to fundamentals.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s well-capitalised banking sector is expected to continue supporting orderly domestic market functioning and resilience, says Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM).

In its Financial Stability Review for the second half of 2025 (2H25), BNM said banks remained well-positioned to support financial intermediation, underpinned by healthy liquidity and funding positions.
