Listing fees for companies on Bursa Malaysia will be increased following approval from the Securities Commission Malaysia marking the first such update in nearly two decades.
Bursa said the SC’s approval covers both listing-related fees for the Main, ACE, and LEAP Markets, as well as regulatory-related fees.
The Fees Revision will come into effect on 1 January 2026.
According to Bursa, the new fee structure is expected to generate an additional RM28 million to RM34 million annually, primarily from annual listing fees. However, the exchange noted that the increase will not have a material impact on its overall earnings, taking into account the new SC Fee announced earlier on 17 October 2025.
“This is the first revision to Bursa’s regulatory-related and listing-related fees since 2001 and 2007, respectively,” the exchange said. “The revision is timely and appropriate, reflecting the new SC Fee, as well as the increased cost of regulation, including manpower and systems, needed to support Bursa’s dual role as a frontline regulator and market operator.”
Bursa added that specific notifications regarding the updated fee structure will be communicated directly to relevant stakeholders in due course.
