CYBERJAYA: Dagang NeXchange Bhd (DNeX) has been included in both the FTSE4Good Bursa Malaysia (F4GBM) Index and the FTSE4Good
Bursa Malaysia Shariah (F4GBMS) Index, effective December 22, 2025.
This dual inclusion marks a significant milestone in the group’s sustainability journey and serves as a strong external endorsement of its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices.
The inclusion follows the strategic establishment of a dedicated Group Sustainability Unit in 2021 and builds on prior recognition, including the 2022 The Edge Malaysia ESG Silver Award for Most Improved Performance.
“Our inclusion in these respected indices is a strong validation of our strategic commitment to ESG throughout the group.
“It transforms our sustainability roadmap from an internal plan into a globally recognised benchmark. This will act as a catalyst to accelerate our initiatives and enhance long-term value creation for all stakeholders,” DNeX head of group risk and sustainability management Mathias Varming said.
The dual index inclusion delivers immediate strategic advantages to the group, namely an enhanced market profile, which increases DNeX’s visibility to global investors seeking responsibly managed companies.
It will also create access to ESG capital, positioning DNeX to attract investment from the growing pool of ESG-focused funds, which manage an estimated US$3.7 trillion in assets globally.
Further, it provides a broader investor base and ensures automatic inclusion in funds that track the F4GBM and F4GBMS indices, promoting greater liquidity and a more diverse shareholder register.
DNeX remains committed to advancing its sustainability agenda, using the FTSE4Good framework as a guide for continuous improvement in corporate performance and stewardship.
