Malaysia's Islamic banking to outperform conventional banks: Fitch. [Newspaper] (2023)



Abstract

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's Islamic financing growth is likely to moderate in 2023 as higher financing rates sap demand, but Fitch Ratings expects growth to continue to outperform that of conventional banks.The rating agency said this was due to the country's supportive regulatory environment and Islamic finance ecosystem as well as the shift towards Shariah-compliant services.Fitch said a strong economic rebound had pushed Islamic financing growth to a five-year high of 13 per cent in 2022, driven by a sustained pick up in working-capital loans and resilient household sector.
