Description

We kept our 2025 GDP growth forecast for Malaysia at 3.8%. Significant headwinds remain amid disruption from US trade policy and Middle East tensions. A rate cut by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) to support the economy looks imminent, although we doubt it will occur in July before more clarity on US tariffs. A lower base could lift GDP growth to 4.5% in 2026.
