UMS Holdings eyes market listing in Malaysia

It aims to broaden its investor base, improving liquidity.

Manufacturer, UMS Holdings, has indicated an interest in listing its shares in the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities (Bursa Securities).

The company said in a local bourse filing this could “ widen its investor base; potentially improve the liquidity of the Company’s shares through separate trading platforms; and enable UMS to tap into additional platforms for future fund raising and provide it with the flexibility to access different equity markets to raise funds to support the Group's growth,”

UMS recently acquired over five acres of industrial land in Penang to grow its manufacturing footprint.

Preparations for the listing are underway, with professional advisers appointed, but no applications have been submitted yet.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
