Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak led the high-level meeting organised by Bursa Malaysia and Maybank Kim Eng.
The dialogue themed “Malaysia: Sustainable at the Core” centered on the developments, challenges and opportunities in Malaysia.
Bursa Malaysia CEO Datuk Tajuddin Atan said it was an engaging session for the fund managers who noted the policies and measures made by the government to boost the resilience and competitiveness of Malaysia’s marketplace.
“The Invest Malaysia New York programme reaffirms the importance for decision makers to continue to interact directly with fund managers, both in good and in more volatile times, amid greater uncertainty in the global economy,” he said.
