Bursa Malaysia is an exchange holding company incorporated in 1976 and listed in 2005. One of the largest bourses in ASEAN, Bursa Malaysia helps over 900 companies raise capital across 60 economic activities – whether through the Main Market for established large-cap companies, the ACE Market for emerging companies of all sizes, or the LEAP Market for up-and-coming SME companies.
As an inclusive marketplace, we provide easy access to many investment products and services, connecting domestic and foreign market participants to all types of opportunities to help them to expand or invest with impact.
Our diverse product range includes equities, derivatives, offshore and Islamic assets as well as Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Exchange Traded Bonds and Sukuk (ETBS).

To be ASEAN’s leading, responsible and globally-connected marketplace.
As we advance towards achieving this vision, our focus remains on the interests of all our stakeholders, to fulfil our commitment of Creating Opportunities, Growing Value.
We will continue to widen our reach and offerings while fostering a conducive capital market ecosystem for all participants to grow and profit. We will pursue innovative ways to enhance or revolutionise our products and services. We will continue to champion sustainable marketplace development by promoting responsible growth, while facilitating fund raising, value and wealth creation.
DIVERSE. INNOVATIVE. SUSTAINABLE.
A global torchbearer in conventional and Shariah markets.
Today, we are globally-recognised as the best, most innovative exchange in Shariah investment – a distinction earned from pioneering various innovations in Islamic finance, such as Bursa Malaysia-i – the world’s first end-to-end Shariah investing platform, and Bursa Suq-Al-Sila’– the world’s first end-to-end Shariah-compliant commodity-trading platform.
Bursa Malaysia is also the world’s biggest palm oil futures trading hub. Our Crude Palm Oil Futures (FCPO) contract has long been recognised and referenced as the global price benchmark for the palm oil industry.
In 2014, we introduced the globally benchmarked FTSE4Good Bursa Malaysia Index which measures the performance of companies demonstrating good environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. In 2015, we joined the United Nations Sustainable Stock Exchanges (SSE) initiative, strengthening our commitment to promoting sustainable strategies among our issuers and the marketplace.
