MALAYSIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Malaysia, a middle-income country, has transformed itself since the 1970s from a producer of raw materials into an emerging multi-sector economy. Under current Prime Minister NAJIB, Malaysia is attempting to achieve high-income status by 2020 and to move farther up the value-added production chain by attracting investments in Islamic finance, high technology industries, biotechnology, and services. The NAJIB administration also is continuing efforts to boost domestic demand and reduce the economy's dependence on exports. Nevertheless, exports - particularly of electronics, oil and gas, palm oil and rubber - remain a significant driver of the economy. As an oil and gas exporter, Malaysia has profited from higher world energy prices, although the rising cost of domestic gasoline and diesel fuel, combined with strained government finances, has forced Kuala Lumpur to begin to reduce government subsidies. The government is also trying to lessen its dependence on state oil producer Petronas. The oil and gas sector supplies more than 40% of government revenue. The central bank maintains healthy foreign exchange reserves, and a well-developed regulatory regime has limited Malaysia''s exposure to riskier financial instruments and the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, Malaysia could be vulnerable to a fall in commodity prices or a general slowdown in global economic activity because exports are a major component of GDP. In order to attract increased investment, NAJIB has raised possible revisions to the special economic and social preferences accorded to ethnic Malays under the New Economic Policy of 1970, but he has encountered significant opposition, especially from Malay nationalists and other vested interests.

Profitability

[

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The increase in turnover could be due to the SC adopting an aggressive marketing strategy.The management had succeeded in turning the SC into a profit making company. The profit could be due to better control of its operating costs and efficiency in utilising its resources. Generally the SC was profitable. The favourable return on shareholders' funds and return on net assets indicate that the SC's management was efficient in utilising the assets to generate returns.

Creditors Ratio

[

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As the SC is a service oriented company, the SC does not need to keep stocks. The SC's debtors ratio was high. The SC should tighten its credit control and improve its collection period. The unfavourable creditors' ratio could be due to the SC taking advantage of the credit granted by its suppliers. However this may affect the goodwill between the SC and its suppliers and the SC may inadvertently have to pay more for its future supplies.

The SC's liquid ratio was slightly low. This could indicate that the SC's working capital was slightly deficient. The SC will have to improve its liquidity position either by obtaining short term financing or increase its paid up capital so that it can meet all its short term obligations as and when they fall due.

Gearing Ratio

:

The SC's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The SC had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

The higher turnover had helped to reduce the SC's losses. The SC's liquidity was at an acceptable range. If the SC is able to obtain further short term financing, it should be able to meet all its short term obligations. The SC did not make any interest payment during the year. The SC was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The SC was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall financial condition of the SC : STABLE

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

429 : Construction of other civil engineering projects

 

 

INDUSTRY :

CONSTRUCTION

 

 

 


The construction sector consists of four subsectors: residential, non-residential, civil engineering and special trade works. During a period of rapid economic expansion, the sector generally outperforms Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth.


Construction's contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to fall to 11.2% in 2013 from 15 % in 2012, with all subsectors registering steady growth. The sector is expected to benefit from the acceleration of ongoing construction activities, particularly from the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) and Second Rolling Plan (RP2) construction-related projects. Of significance, exploration activities in O&G industries and major projects such as the electrified double-tracking between lpoh -Padang Besar, LPT2 Jabur - Kuala Terengganu, MRT and the River of Life are expected to drive the growth of the civil engineering subsector. The non-residential subsector is expected to expand spurred by the industrial building segment and the commencement of construction of the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX). The residential subsector is also projected to expand, albeit at a moderate pace, after recording several years of strong growth. Key housing development projects, particularly in Sungai Buloh and Bandar Malaysia in Sungai Besi, which are expected to commence in 2013, will support residential construction activities. According to the Minister of Finance, the domestic demand is expected to grow at 5.6% and will remain the main driver of growth in 2013 underpinned by strong private sector expenditure.


The industry is set to receive a further boost from a wave of new developments earmarked for 2013, including rail projects worth an estimated $52 billion that should be launched in the coming year. It was predicted that the growth in other sectors will largely drive Malaysia's econ­omy but the construction sector's contribution to GDP could still remain stable. However, while the construc­tion sector is expected to have a solid 2013, it remains hampered by a shortage of skilled labour­ers, with rapid growth in recent years triggering a drain on its workforce. In late November of 2012, the Builders Association Malaysia (MBAM) request the govern­ment to do more to facilitate the training of building workers or run the risk of supply-side bot­tlenecks delaying new projects.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

 

CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 2009, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on tenderers, contractors and sub-contractors of and for all kinds of constructional, structural. civil engineering, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, interior decoration and renovation. The SC has been in business for less than 5 years and it has slowly been building up contact with its clients while competing in the industry. Having strong support from its shareholder has enabled the SC to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment. Presently, issued and paid up capital of the SC stand at MYR 90,000.


Over the years, the SC has penetrated into both the local and overseas market. The SC has positioned itself in the global market and is competing in the industry. Its stable clientele base will enable the SC to further enhance its business in the near term. Overall, we regard that the SC's management capability is average. This indicates that the SC has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the SC.


We noted that both the turnover and profits have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to increase in turnover and better control over its operating costs. Based on the higher profitability, the SC has generated a favourable return based on its existing shareholders' funds which indicated that the management was efficient in utilising its funds to generate income. The SC managed to maintain an adequate liquidity level, indicating that the SC has the ability to meet its financial obligations. Being a zero geared company, the SC virtually has no financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business.


Without a strong assets backing, the SC may face difficulties in getting loans for its future expansion and continued growth .


The SC's payment habit is average. With its adequate working capital, the SC should be able to pay its short term debts.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the SC is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry.


In view of the above, we recommend credit be granted to the SC with close monitoring.

MALAYSIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Malaysia, a middle-income country, has transformed itself since the 1970s from a producer of raw materials into an emerging multi-sector economy. Under current Prime Minister NAJIB, Malaysia is attempting to achieve high-income status by 2020 and to move farther up the value-added production chain by attracting investments in Islamic finance, high technology industries, biotechnology, and services. The NAJIB administration also is continuing efforts to boost domestic demand and reduce the economy's dependence on exports. Nevertheless, exports - particularly of electronics, oil and gas, palm oil and rubber - remain a significant driver of the economy. As an oil and gas exporter, Malaysia has profited from higher world energy prices, although the rising cost of domestic gasoline and diesel fuel, combined with strained government finances, has forced Kuala Lumpur to begin to reduce government subsidies. The government is also trying to lessen its dependence on state oil producer Petronas. The oil and gas sector supplies more than 40% of government revenue. The central bank maintains healthy foreign exchange reserves, and a well-developed regulatory regime has limited Malaysia''s exposure to riskier financial instruments and the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, Malaysia could be vulnerable to a fall in commodity prices or a general slowdown in global economic activity because exports are a major component of GDP. In order to attract increased investment, NAJIB has raised possible revisions to the special economic and social preferences accorded to ethnic Malays under the New Economic Policy of 1970, but he has encountered significant opposition, especially from Malay nationalists and other vested interests.

The increase in turnover could be due to the SC adopting an aggressive marketing strategy.The management had succeeded in turning the SC into a profit making company. The profit could be due to better control of its operating costs and efficiency in utilising its resources. Generally the SC was profitable. The favourable return on shareholders' funds and return on net assets indicate that the SC's management was efficient in utilising the assets to generate returns.

As the SC is a service oriented company, the SC does not need to keep stocks. The SC's debtors ratio was high. The SC should tighten its credit control and improve its collection period. The unfavourable creditors' ratio could be due to the SC taking advantage of the credit granted by its suppliers. However this may affect the goodwill between the SC and its suppliers and the SC may inadvertently have to pay more for its future supplies.

The SC's liquid ratio was slightly low. This could indicate that the SC's working capital was slightly deficient. The SC will have to improve its liquidity position either by obtaining short term financing or increase its paid up capital so that it can meet all its short term obligations as and when they fall due.

The SC's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The SC had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

The higher turnover had helped to reduce the SC's losses. The SC's liquidity was at an acceptable range. If the SC is able to obtain further short term financing, it should be able to meet all its short term obligations. The SC did not make any interest payment during the year. The SC was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The SC was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall financial condition of the SC : STABLE

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

429 : Construction of other civil engineering projects

 

 

INDUSTRY :

CONSTRUCTION

 

 

 


The construction sector consists of four subsectors: residential, non-residential, civil engineering and special trade works. During a period of rapid economic expansion, the sector generally outperforms Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth.


Construction's contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to fall to 11.2% in 2013 from 15 % in 2012, with all subsectors registering steady growth. The sector is expected to benefit from the acceleration of ongoing construction activities, particularly from the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) and Second Rolling Plan (RP2) construction-related projects. Of significance, exploration activities in O&G industries and major projects such as the electrified double-tracking between lpoh -Padang Besar, LPT2 Jabur - Kuala Terengganu, MRT and the River of Life are expected to drive the growth of the civil engineering subsector. The non-residential subsector is expected to expand spurred by the industrial building segment and the commencement of construction of the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX). The residential subsector is also projected to expand, albeit at a moderate pace, after recording several years of strong growth. Key housing development projects, particularly in Sungai Buloh and Bandar Malaysia in Sungai Besi, which are expected to commence in 2013, will support residential construction activities. According to the Minister of Finance, the domestic demand is expected to grow at 5.6% and will remain the main driver of growth in 2013 underpinned by strong private sector expenditure.


The industry is set to receive a further boost from a wave of new developments earmarked for 2013, including rail projects worth an estimated $52 billion that should be launched in the coming year. It was predicted that the growth in other sectors will largely drive Malaysia's econ­omy but the construction sector's contribution to GDP could still remain stable. However, while the construc­tion sector is expected to have a solid 2013, it remains hampered by a shortage of skilled labour­ers, with rapid growth in recent years triggering a drain on its workforce. In late November of 2012, the Builders Association Malaysia (MBAM) request the govern­ment to do more to facilitate the training of building workers or run the risk of supply-side bot­tlenecks delaying new projects.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

 

CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 2009, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on tenderers, contractors and sub-contractors of and for all kinds of constructional, structural. civil engineering, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, interior decoration and renovation. The SC has been in business for less than 5 years and it has slowly been building up contact with its clients while competing in the industry. Having strong support from its shareholder has enabled the SC to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment. Presently, issued and paid up capital of the SC stand at MYR 90,000.


Over the years, the SC has penetrated into both the local and overseas market. The SC has positioned itself in the global market and is competing in the industry. Its stable clientele base will enable the SC to further enhance its business in the near term. Overall, we regard that the SC's management capability is average. This indicates that the SC has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the SC.


We noted that both the turnover and profits have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to increase in turnover and better control over its operating costs. Based on the higher profitability, the SC has generated a favourable return based on its existing shareholders' funds which indicated that the management was efficient in utilising its funds to generate income. The SC managed to maintain an adequate liquidity level, indicating that the SC has the ability to meet its financial obligations. Being a zero geared company, the SC virtually has no financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business.


Without a strong assets backing, the SC may face difficulties in getting loans for its future expansion and continued growth .


The SC's payment habit is average. With its adequate working capital, the SC should be able to pay its short term debts.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the SC is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry.


In view of the above, we recommend credit be granted to the SC with close monitoring.
