What are Bursa Malaysias key targets for the year 2009?
Bursa has not announced any targets for 2009 due to the volatile market conditions. In the medium term, we hope to achieve a sustainable 60% velocity for the equities market and doubling our derivatives business. Bursa Malaysia will always stay focused to continue growing its core businesses. We also hope to build on our advantages in two niche areas namely, the Islamic Market and the Commodities Market. The ultimate objective is to make Bursa Malaysia an attractive investment and listing destination.
