It is Bursa Malaysia’s vision to become ASEAN’s leading, sustainable and globally connected marketplace. In line with that and our strategic focus, we aim to grow our suite of sustainability-themed products and services that create positive impacts for the planet and society. As the world transitions towards a net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions future, VCMs will play an important role to facilitate capital flows towards climate-friendly projects and solutions that aim to avoid, reduce or remove GHG emissions.
We strongly believe a vibrant and well-functioning VCM will help catalyse green industries and accelerate our country’s progress towards net zero GHG emissions. The setting up of our very own VCM exchange, i.e. the Bursa Carbon Exchange (BCX), represents an important growth lever for us as we strive to build a diversified and sustainable exchange. Through BCX, we provide a rules-based and transparent approach for both buyers and sellers to transact carbon credits, and increased the accessibility and efficiency in carbon credit dealings to serve all stakeholders.
