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.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

45300 : Wholesale and retail sale of all kinds of parts, components, supplies, tools and accessories for motor vehicles

 

 

INDUSTRY :

MOTOR VECHICLE

 

 

 

The total industry volume (TIV) for year 2013 forcasted 640 000 units. This is an increase of 2.0% compared to the year 2012. Sales of passenger vehicles in the year 2013 forcasted increase by 2.0% to 563 000 units compared to 552 189 units at the year 2012. While sales of comercial vehicles in year 2013 forcasted to increase by 2.0% to 77 000 units compared to 75 564 units at the year 2012.

 

It is a big challenge for the TIV of year 2013 to create another high record. However, Malaysia's GPD growth is forcasted to be 5.6% in year 2013. This is driven by exports and domestic demand and is expected to give confidence in consumer sentiments. Besides, multiplier effects from the Economic Transformation Programme's (ETP) projects would give a further boost to the domestic economy and create greater demand for new vehicles.

 

According to the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA), the implimentation of the Bank Negara's guidelines on responsible financing practices from 1st January 2012 coused a slowdown in new vehicle purchase in first quarter 2012. However, the total industry volume (TIV) of the year 2012 surged to a historical high of 627,753 units which is an all time record achievement for the industry. This record had overtaken the previous highest record of 605,156 units achieved in 2010. It had also outperformed the MAA's TIV forcast of 615,000 units. The main contributors to the growth were led by Perodua and Proton, followed by Toyota, Honda and Nissan.

 

The total registration of new passenger vehicles in year 2012 reached 552,189 unts compare with 535,113 units in year 2011. Which had bring an increase of 3.2% (17,076 units) of growth rate in the registration of passenger vehicles. While the total registration for commercial vehicles n 2012 was 75,564 units which is an increase of 6.2% (10,554 units). Besides, the production of new vehicles also recorded an increase of 6.8% (36,105 units) in year 2012. According to the president of Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA), the record new vehicle sales in 2012 was due to factors such as strong economic growth, the implementation of infrastructure projects under the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP), increased consumer spending and consumption due to stable employment and rising disposable income, introduction of new models at competitive prices as well as aggressive sales campaigns by car companies.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Marginal Growth



CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 1997, the Subject is a Partnership company, focusing on trading of spare parts for lorries and land rovers. Having been in the industry for over a decade, the Subject 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.

Investigation revealed that the Subject concentrates only on the local market. This narrow market segment has placed the Subject at high business risk and limits its business expansion opportunities. Any adverse changes to the local economy might have a negative impact on the Subject's business performance. Being a small company, the Subject's business operation is supported by 5 employees. Overall, we regard that the Subject's management capability is average. This indicates that the Subject has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the Subject.

 
As the Subject is registered as a partnership, it is not required by law to file its financial statements for public review. As such, we are unable to ascertain its present financial health.

 
The industry has reached its maturity stage and only enjoying a marginal growth. The steady growth of the country's economy will further enhance the industry activities. Thus, the Subject's future performance is very much depend on its marketing strategies in order to retain its position in the market.

 
In view of the above, we only recommend credit be proceeded to the Subject with guarantee.
