Publications
Accelerating Your Digital Transformation: Are Malaysian Companies Geared to Digitalise?
Malaysia’s digital economy is growing, but many companies remain at an early stage of digitalization. While awareness is high, most firms focus on basic digitization rather than business transformation. Government incentives, skills development, and incremental adoption are key to advancing digital maturity.
Strategic Growth through Programmatic M&A of Small to Medium-Sized Companies in Southeast Asia
In Southeast Asia’s complex markets, programmatic M&A offers a flexible alternative to slow organic expansion and high-risk large deals. By pursuing smaller, repeat acquisitions, companies can enter markets faster, build local capabilities, and manage risk, provided strong sourcing, diligence, and integration discipline are in place.
Supply Chain Finance in Southeast Asia
As Southeast Asia’s supply chains evolve under China+1 strategies, working capital constraints are intensifying. Supply chain finance offers a way to unlock liquidity, support suppliers, and strengthen resilience through buyer-led programs and digital platforms. Regulatory alignment and greater SME awareness can further drive adoption.
加速数字化转型：马来西亚企业是否已做好数字化准备？
马来西亚的数字经济正在增长，但许多企业仍处于数字化的早期阶段。尽管认知度较高，大多数企业仍侧重于基础数字化，而非业务转型。要推动数字成熟度提升，政府激励措施、技能培养以及循序渐进的采用方式至关重要。
