Chief executive officer Datuk Fad’l Mohamed said the exchange is evaluating potential incentives but will first require participating companies to show genuine commitment to long-term shareholder value. “Yes, we are looking at potential types of incentives that we can provide. But for us, the focus remains on seeing that companies show genuine commitment to this long-term value creation plan, rather than just looking at incentives,” he told reporters after releasing Bursa Malaysia’s 1H 2026 results.
Launched on April 20, the programme has already attracted strong interest from public-listed companies (PLCs) and institutional investors. Bursa Malaysia expects participating firms to submit long-term value creation plans by year-end, with the disclosures becoming public early next year to help investors assess strategies.
The exchange aims the programme at companies with a market capitalisation exceeding RM4 billion, seeking to enhance market recognition of corporate performance and encourage local value creation. “The MyValue Up programme aims to enhance market recognition of corporate performance and encourage local value creation, particularly among companies with a market capitalisation exceeding RM4 billion,” Fad’l said.
Bursa Malaysia plans to keep engaging targeted PLCs to secure voluntary participation and will disclose further details on incentives once they are finalised.
