MARC and Amanie to host Malaysian bond & Sukuk conference 2019

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Bond & Sukuk Conference 2019, to be held on November 28-29, 2019, will be organised by Malaysian Rating Corporation Berhad (MARC) and Amanie Group (Amanie). The event will serve as a platform for Malaysian regulators, market players, issuers and investors to exchange ideas and insights on the recent developments in the Malaysian sukuk and bond markets. This year’s event will focus on sustainability with the overall objective of remaining a preferred and attractive investment destination to global investors. 

Datuk Dr. Mohd Daud Bakar, the Executive Chairman of Amanie Group said, “This is the third conference in the series. We have designed these conferences with a lot of thought, and as such this year we are expanding our scope to include the bond market to better represent the capital market as a whole. Our aim is to gather all the right experts working on the latest developments in both the bond and sukuk capital markets under one roof. The bridge for both capital markets, for today and tomorrow, is sustainability. It is this generation’s responsibility to put in place ideas that have far reaching benefits, today and for the future generation.”  

MARC Chief Business Officer Ahmad Feizal Sulaiman Khan commented, “As a rating agency, we are pleased to be co-organising this year’s Malaysian Bond & Sukuk Conference 2019: Capital Markets for a Sustainable Future, with Amanie Group. The theme around sustainability is very timely as sustainability is fast becoming the new imperative for the capital market. As the capital market continues to innovate to meet market and industry needs, now and into the future, sustainability has gone beyond being a buzzword and become the new measurement of progress for all stakeholders. This conference aims to be a platform for financial sector stakeholders to share their knowledge, insights and experiences.”

The two-day conference will feature five key sessions and four special presentations, which will be moderated as well as presented by domestic and regional industry experts and regulators.
