Malaysia's Growth Outlook Hinges on Domestic Demand, Tourism -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Sep 08

0141 GMT - Malaysia's GDP is projected to grow 4.4% in 2025, with risks skewed to the downside from weaker global trade, tariffs, and geopolitical uncertainties, TA Securities economist Farid Burhanuddin says in a note. Growth momentum will increasingly rely on domestic policy support, with tourism expected to be a key catalyst from 2026, boosting services and private consumption, he says. Wage growth, investment realization, and income-supportive policies should underpin domestic demand, while the government's Budget 2026 in October will provide clearer guidance. TA Securities forecasts 2026 growth at 4.5%-5.0%. Bank Negara's policy rate is expected to remain at 2.75% through the year-end, it adds. (yingxian.wong@wsj.com)
