Malaysia Critically Needs Trade Based Solutions Says Bank Negara


 
Bank Negara says wage subsidies, grants and loan moratoriums are a temporary backstop akin to a band-aid and might not be sustainable.KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia critically needs trade-based solutions to ease liquidity constraints brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) assistant governor Adnan Zaylani Mohamad Zahid said today.
He said the pandemic, which led to subdued domestic demand and stringent containment measures, had resulted in a liquidity squeeze among Malaysian businesses, particularly the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
“To stay afloat, some companies have had to resort to increased debt to meet their payment obligations,” he said at the launch of the World Bank’s Islamic Trade Finance Report.
“While measures have been introduced to lessen the burden of SMEs in the form of wage assistance programmes, support grants and deferment of financing instalments, these were merely a temporary backstop akin to a band-aid and prolonged assistance of this form might not be sustainable.”
Adnan Zaylani said the over-dependence on debt-based instruments also reduced the financial flexibility of businesses in supporting their recovery.
According to him, trade-based solutions can offer a viable option where funding is tailored to the lifecycle of production, allowing companies to obtain short-term liquidity via the sale of assets such as receivables and inventories to financial institutions without increasing their indebtedness.
However, he expressed concern that the structuring of such solutions entailed new sets of risks to financial institutions.
“In contrast to debt financing, the financier is exposed to risks beyond credit, such as inventory and market risk, which calls for additional safeguards for risk mitigation, different approaches to risk management, infrastructure and practices.
“Given the nature of the exposures, this warrants Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) to take an exploratory approach to new trade-based offerings. This allows for a better understanding of the risks and their dynamics, thus enabling IFIs to put in place the appropriate framework and policies,” he said.
Adnan Zaylani said another important thrust for the central bank and in particular Islamic finance was to help businesses embrace sustainability and build resilience to climate change where the urgent need for an inclusive and greener recovery was undeniable.
He warned that as a trading nation, Malaysia could lose US$65.3 billion (RM276 billion) worth of annual export revenue if the country did not embrace the transition towards a low carbon and climate resilient economy by 2025.
“Trade partners had started to impose expectations on sustainability as preconditions to transact,” he said.
He cited the example of China and the European Union’s (EU) commitments to net zero emissions by mid-century, adding that the EU’s recently proposed Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism would increase the cost of business to export into these markets.
“It is clear that sustainability is no longer a nice-to-have but an imperative business consideration critical for long-term survival,” he said of the two major trading partners for Malaysia.
“It is encouraging to see that the financial sector is stepping up on this front, including via the offering of sustainable finance solutions and assistance to companies in their transition journey. Islamic financial institutions have led and continue to lead through value-based intermediation practices.” - FMT
