SC on The Funding Escalator: Bridging the MSME & MTC Capital Gap
Description
Budget 2027 introduced incentives to broaden capital market access for Malaysia’s micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and mid-tier companies (MTCs), including a RM270 million matching fund allocation for equity crowdfunding (ECF) and peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms. Datin Paduka Azalina Adham, Managing Director of the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC), joins The Morning Run to outline how these measures reinforce the SC’s Capital Market Masterplan.
She details the mechanics of the SC’s "funding escalator", a framework bridging early-stage crowdfunding to LEAP, ACE, and Main Market listings, alongside nationwide outreach campaigns and capacity-building programs like Elevate Programme and the Simplified ESG Guide.
