Bursa Malaysia Berhad has unveiled the BURSA Remisier Acquisition Hub (Bursa Reach) the country’s first profiling platform dedicated to featuring and facilitating better connections between dealer’s representatives (DRs) and investors, beyond traditional channels.
The platform is one of Bursa Malaysia’s new offerings, designed to provide investors greater access to investment opportunities in the marketplace. Through this platform, nominated remisiers and DRs can showcase their investment
expertise in a compelling way. The platform also allows them to build detailed profiles that highlight their experience, qualifications and investment strategies.
Bursa said the transparency helps build trust, attract the interest of a wider range of prospective investors, and allows potential investors to find a good fit based on their investing requirements. For investors, the platform enables them to stay informed about their DRs’ latest investment activities. Investors can connect with DRs and explore their portfolios, screen
for investment ideas, and make informed investment decisions based on their investment style and risk appetite.
Datuk Muhamad Umar Swift, Chief Executive Officer of Bursa Malaysia said, “Bursa Malaysia recognises the dealer’s representatives significance in our marketplace. The BURSA REACH platform was established to allow dealer’s representatives to effectively showcase their profiles and acquire new clients, while also allowing investors to connect with them to gain insights into trading strategies. This initiative is expected to stimulate market activity, ultimately fostering greater market vibrancy.”
BURSA REACH complements Bursa Malaysia’s existing educational programmes. It gives investors direct access to licensed DRs and real-time insights into equity portfolio management, thereby enriching their trading experience and empowering them to participate confidently in the equities market.
The BURSA REACH platform is free and open to all Participating Organisations (POs) as well as the investing public. Currently, 31 DRs from four (4) POs — namely AmInvestment Bank Berhad, BIMB Securities Sdn Bhd, Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd, and Phillip Capital Sdn Bhd, are onboarded on the platform.
