CoSIF - MSME and MTC Roadmap | Securities Commission Malaysia

About the NIMP CoSIF

The New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030) Strategic Co-Investment Fund (NIMP CoSIF) is a government co-investment fund that aims to support the missions of the NIMP 2030, in achieving Malaysia’s industrial objectives.

The NIMP CoSIF is also aligned with the aspirations of the Securities Commission Malaysia’s 'Catalysing MSME and MTC Access to the Capital Market: 5-Year Roadmap (2024-2028)'. It supports small, and medium enterprises (SMEs) and mid-tier companies (MTCs) by facilitating fundraising through Equity Crowdfunding (ECF) and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Financing platforms. This initiative represents a whole-of-nation approach aimed at enhancing SMEs and MTCs access to financing, strengthening the foundation of Malaysia’s economic growth.

Objectives

Support strategic and high-impact missions to advance the Malaysian manufacturing sector, as outlined in the NIMP 2030

Reduce the risk profile for investors and increase attractiveness of projects to fundraise in the capital market
