The Fixed Income market is the most important part of Malaysia’s Capital market. As of date, Malaysia has RM1.4 trillion bond and sukuk currently outstanding in the capital market. This market provides an avenue for both the corporations for funding and the financial institutions for its fixed income return. Historically, this asset can only be purchased by institutional investors or high net worth individuals due to its high barrier of entry. While we can purchase stocks for 100 unit per lot, 1 lot for bond & sukuk stays at RM5 million and lowest RM250,000 odd lot for high net worth individual investor.
However, Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) launched its seasoned bond framework which facilitates access for retail investors to purchase bonds & sukuk that were originally issued for institutional investor in the primary market. You can read more on the framework here but some of the highlights from the guideline are as below:
- Denominated in Ringgit Malaysia
- The bond must have a remaining tenure of more than 1 year
- The bond must have been issued for at least 1 year
- The bond must have a minimum credit rating of A (Read more about rating here)
