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. NAJIB's Economic Transformation Program (ETP) is a series of projects and policy measures intended to accelerate the country's economic growth. The government has also taken steps to liberalize some services sub-sectors. 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 about 35% of government revenue in 2011. Bank Negera Malaysia (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

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

 

 

Profitability

 

 

 

 

 

 

Turnover

:

Erratic

[

2007 - 2011

]

 

Profit/(Loss) Before Tax

:

Decreased

[

2007 - 2011

]

 

Return on Shareholder Funds

:

Unfavourable

[

2.18%

]

 

Return on Net Assets

:

Unfavourable

[

3.27%

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the existing and new market players.The SC's profit fell sharply because of the high operating costs incurred. The unfavourable return on shareholders' funds could indicate that the SC was inefficient in utilising its assets to generate returns.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Working Capital Control

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stock Ratio

:

Acceptable

[

62 Days

]

 

Debtor Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

222 Days

]

 

Creditors Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

237 Days

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC kept adequate stocks to meet its normal business transactions without incurring excessive storage costs. 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liquidity

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liquid Ratio

:

Acceptable

[

0.85 Times

]

 

Current Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

1.09 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Solvency

 

 

 

 

 

 

Interest Cover

:

Nil

[

0.00 Times

]

 

Gearing Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.03 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The SC was lowly geared thus it had a low financial risk. The SC was mainly financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated funds. In times of economic slowdown / downturn, the SC being a lowly geared company, will be able to compete better than those companies which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC recorded lower profits as its turnover showed a erratic trend. The SC's management was unable to control its costs efficiently as its profit showed a downward trend. 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 as a lowly geared company, will be more secured compared to those highly geared companies. It has the ability to meet all its long term obligations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall financial condition of the SC : LIMITED

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

46697 : Wholesale of precious stones

 

 

INDUSTRY :

TRADING

 

 

 

According to the Retail Group Malaysia (RGM), the wholesale and retail trade sector forecast to grow to 6% in year 2013. During the first quarter of year 2013, RGM is estimating the retail industry to grow 6.9%. Many retailers have been enjoying better sales since the government handed out cash from mid-January of 2013 under the second round of Bantuan Rakyat 1Malaysia to more than 12 million Malaysians. Bookstores and related retail stores have also started enjoying rising sales since the RM250 1Malaysia Book Voucher was distributed to 1.3 million private and public university students. Besides, since early February 2013, handphone traders and retailers selling smartphone accessories have started to benefit from the RM200 rebate on smartphones for 1.5 million young adults aged between 21 and 30 years with a monthly income of not more than RM3,000.

 

The wholesale and retail trade sector grew 6.1% in the first half of the year 2012 driven by strong domestic consumption and the increasing number of large format stores operating in Malaysia, including 180 foreign hypermarkets, superstores and departmental stores as at end of August 2012. In addition, other indicators such as imports of consumption goods were higher by 15.2%.

 

In 2012, the wholesale and retail trade sector growth to 5.5% driven by higher consumption which benefited from Government initiatives under the 2012 Budget such as BR1M, Baucar Buku 1Malaysia (BB1M) and the RM100 assistance for all primary and secondary school students. The performance of the sector will also be supported by ongoing efforts to modernise the retail segment under the ETP. In 2012, 500 retail shops and 50 workshops are targeted to be modernised under the Retail Shop Transformation (TUKAR) and Automotive Workshop Modernisation (ATOM) programmes, respectively. As at end of July 2012, 95 workshops have been modernised, surpassing the yearly target, while 393 retail shops have been modernised.

 

Growth of the sector is anticipated to remain encouraging with ongoing efforts by the Government to increase its contribution to the economy. Major initiatives include increasing the number of large format stores such as hypermarkets, superstores and departmental stores are carried out to boost the economy.

 

Over 60% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is contributed by domestic consumption, therefore the wholesale and retail sector plays a crucial role in driving Malaysia's growth over the next decade despite the ongoing global economic slowdown. By 2020, Malaysia's wholesale and retail sector is expected to boost the country's total Gross National Income (GNI) by RM156 billion, creating 454,190 new jobs.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth



CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 

 


Incorporated in 2001, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on trading of precious stones, shape of diamonds. Having been in the industry for over a decade, the SC has achieved a certain market share and has built up a satisfactory reputation in the market. It should have received supports from its regular customers. The SC is considered as a small size company with issued and paid up capital standing at RM350,000. 

Over the years, the SC should have build up its clientele base and received supports from its regular customers. Investigation revealed that the SC's interest lies mostly in the local market. Thus, any adverse changes to the local economy might have a negative impact on the SC's business performance. Being a small company, the SC's business operation is supported by 2 employees. 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. 

Financially, the SC registered a higher turnover compared to previous year. However, its profits showed a reverse trend. The lower profit achieved was a result of higher operating cost and increased competition. The SC has generated an unfavourable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate return. The SC managed to maintain an adequate liquidity level, indicating that the SC has the ability to meet its financial obligations. Being a lowly geared company, the SC is exposed to low financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business needs. Given a positive net worth standing at MYR 658,559, the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms. 

The SC's supplier are from both the local and overseas countries. This will eliminates the risk of dependency on deliveries from a number of key suppliers and insufficient quantities of its raw materials. Overall the SC has a good control over its resources. 

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. 

Based on the above condition, we recommend credit be granted to the SC normally.

DIAMOND INDUSTRY – INDIA

 

-            From time immemorial, India is well known in the world as the birthplace for diamonds.  It is difficult to trace the origin of diamonds but history says that in the remote past, diamonds were mined only in India. Diamond production in India can be traced back to almost 8th Century B.C.  India, in fact, remained undisputed leader till 18th Century when Brazilian fields were discovered in 1725 followed by emergence of S. Africa, Russia and Australia.

-            The achievement of the Indian diamond industry was possible only due to combination of the manufacturing skills of the Indian workforce and the untiring and unflagging efforts of the Indian diamantaires, supported by progressive Government policies.

-            The area of study of family owned diamond businesses derives its importance from the huge conglomerate of family run organizations which operate in the diamond industry since many generations.

-            Some of the basic traits of family run business enterprises include spirit of entrepreneurship, mutual trust lowers transaction costs, small, nimble and quick to react, information as a source of advantage and philanthropy.

-            Family owned diamond businesses need to improve on many fronts including higher standard of corporate governance, long-term performance – focused strategies, modern management and technology.

-            Utmost caution is to be exercised while dealing with some medium and large diamond traders which are usually engaged in fictitious import – export, inter-company transactions, financially assisted by banks. In the process, several public sector banks lost several hundred million rupees. They mostly diverted borrowed money for diamond business into real estate and capital markets.

-            Excerpts from Times of India dated 30th October 2010 is as under –

 

-            Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council in its statistical data has shown the export of polished diamonds to have increase by 28 % in February 2013. Compared to $ 1.4 bn worth of polished diamond export in February, 2012, India exported $ 1.84 billion worth of polished diamonds in February 2013. A senior executive of GJEPC said, “Export of cut and polished diamonds started falling month-wise after the imposition of 2 % of import duty on the polished diamonds. But February, 2013 has given a new ray of hope to the industry as the export of polished diamonds has actually increased by 28 %. It means the industry  is on the track of recovery and round tripping of diamonds has stopped completely.” Demand has started coming from the US, the UK, Japan and China. India’s polished diamond export is expected to cross $ 21 bn in 2013-14.

 

-            The banking sector has started exercising restraint while following prudent risk management norms when lending money to gems and jewellery sector. This follows the implementation of Basel III accord – a global voluntary regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity.
