KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia Bhd has unveiled Malaysia’s first profiling platform featuring and facilitating better connections between representatives of dealers and investors, beyond traditional channels.
In a statement today, the exchange said the platform, known as Bursa Remisier Acquisition Hub (Bursa Reach), is a new offering that provides investors greater access to investment opportunities.
“Through this platform, nominated remisiers and dealers’ representatives can compellingly showcase their investment expertise, allowing them to build detailed profiles highlighting their experience, qualifications and investment strategies.
“This transparency helps build trust, attract the interest of a wider range of prospective investors, and allows potential investors to find a good fit based on their investing requirements,” it added.
For investors, Bursa Reach enables them to stay informed about their dealer representatives’ latest investment activities, connect with the representatives and explore their portfolios, screen for investment ideas, and make informed investment decisions based on their investment style and risk appetite, it said.
The platform, free and open to all participating organisations and the investing public, currently has 31 dealer representatives from four participating organisations, namely AmInvestment Bank Bhd, BIMB Securities Sdn Bhd, Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd and Phillip Capital Sdn Bhd.
The exchange said the Bursa Reach platform welcomes more participating organisations to nominate and profile their dealer representatives, to broaden participation and increase market activity for greater capital market vibrancy.
Chief executive officer Datuk Muhamad Umar Swift said the rollout of Bursa Reach underscores the exchange’s commitment to market growth and to support investors’ evolving needs.
“By offering innovative solutions and fostering inclusivity, we are creating a vibrant capital market, accessible to all,” he said. – Reuters
