Malaysia's Corporate Bond Issuance Projected to Rise in 2024Malaysia's Corporate Bond Issuance Projected to Rise in 2024RAM Ratings forecasts Malaysia's corporate bond issuance to reach RM124.2 billion in 2024, exceeding the previous year's RM118.3 billion. The financial and property sectors continue to drive issuance, contributing RM51.7 billion and RM19.9 billion respectively. This trend is expected to persist in 2025 with projected issuance remaining healthy at RM110 billion to RM120 billion. However, issuance of Malaysian Government Securities (MGS) and Government Investment Issues (GII) is projected to decline to RM176.7 billion in 2024, from RM190.9 billion in 2023. RAM Ratings attributes this to the government's commitment to fiscal sustainability and efforts to reduce the budget deficit. Meanwhile, the Malaysian bond market recorded a more modest inflow of foreign funds at RM4.8 billion in 2024, compared to RM23.6 billion in 2023. Large-scale selling in the bond market continued throughout the year, due to uncertainty surrounding the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy, affecting investor sentiment. RAM Ratings expects the Malaysian bond market landscape to remain challenging, but supported by domestic strength such as business and infrastructure financing needs.
