KUALA LUMPUR: The government’s RM5bil financial guarantee initiative for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is expected to provide a significant boost to the sector, particularly exporters, by strengthening their working capital and sustaining trade momentum amid current cost pressures.
Malaysia External Trade Development Corp (Matrade) chairman Datuk Seri Reezal Merican Naina Merican said sufficient financing access is critical for export-oriented companies, as working capital remains a key requirement in maintaining operations and fulfilling international orders.
