Frequently Asked Questions

How to sell a specialty finance business in Malaysia?
Selling involves valuing the loan portfolio, preparing BNM-compliant documentation, and engaging due diligence on compliance and financials. Align timing with market demand for niches like factoring or leasing, ensuring scalability and low NPLs to attract buyers seeking regulated, yield-generating assets. Typical steps include audit readiness and license transfer planning.
What BNM approvals are required for a specialty finance sale?
BNM approval is needed for ownership changes in licensed non-bank financial institutions. Sellers must submit details on buyer suitability, portfolio continuity, and compliance status.
