Global Compact Network Malaysia, the local network of the United Nations Global Compact, and Capital Markets Malaysia have jointly launched the Global Compact Network Malaysia Centre of Excellence (COE) to drive strategic development of the sustainability agenda and to accelerate the performance of corporate Malaysia in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Growing adoption globally of sustainable and responsible investing (SRI) as an investment principle has made it imperative for Malaysian public listed companies to be equipped to meet global sustainability standards and be prepared to communicate their sustainability efforts meaningfully to stakeholders. Capital Markets Malaysia will provide strategic support and seed funding for the COE as part of its initiative to position Malaysia as a regional centre for sustainable and responsible investment.
