KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia Bhd’s pre-tax profit for financial year ended Dec 31, 2017 (FY17) rose to RM305.88 million from RM270.59 million a year earlier.

Revenue surged to RM556.83 million from RM506.78 million previously.

In a statement yesterday, Bursa Malaysia chief executive officer, Datuk Seri Tajuddin Atan, said 2017 was one of the strongest years for the local equity market.

The FBM KLCI saw growth of 9.4 per cent and market capitalisation grew by 14.4 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y) to RM1.9 trillion, he said.

“There was a significant increase in retail participation, which grew by 41 per cent y-o-y. This was in line with our continued focus to engage and educate by building our retail outreach efforts and financial literacy programmes, further expanding our retail base throughout the year,” he said.

Bursa Malaysia saw a RM10.8 billion net foreign inflow in 2017.

In FY2017, Bursa Malaysia attracted 13 new listings, raising a total of RM7.4 billion compared to RM0.6 billion in 2016.

“We will expand our marketing efforts to build a strong IPO pipeline and look forward to rolling out our initiatives aimed at widening our products and services to create a conducive capital market ecosystem for all market participants,” said Tajuddin.

For the year under review, securities market trading revenue increased by 21.9 per cent to RM259.6 million from higher average daily trading value (ADV) for securities market on-market trades, which grew by 27.7 per cent to RM2.3 billion.

In the Islamic capital market, trading revenue for Bursa Suq Al-Sila’ in FY2017 fell by 3.7 per cent to RM15.8 million despite an improvement in ADV by 20.2 per cent to RM19.6 billion, mainly due to the introduction of volume-based pricing scheme.

“We will continue to work closely with our intermediaries to improve liquidity and increase trading activities,” said Tajuddin.

KUALA LUMPUR: BURSA MALAYSIA BHD [] posted RM96.31 million in net profit for the 4Q ended Dec 31, 2009, up 612% from RM13.52 million a year ago, mainly due to the RM76.0 million gain on disposal of 25% stake in Bursa Malaysia Derivatives.

The stock exchange operator said on Thurdsay, Feb 4 that the group's 4Q09 operational profit (excluding gain on disposal of 25 per cent equity interest in Bursa Malaysia Derivatives) was RM20.3 million, up 50% from 4Q08.

"This was mainly due to the improvement of sentiments in the securities market towards the end of the year," it said. It recommended dividend of nine sen per share for 4Q09 compared with 7.8 sen in 4Q08.

Revenue was RM157.39 million versus RM71.11 million, earnings per share were 18.2 sen versus 2.6 sen.

Equities trading revenue recorded an increase of 30% to RM33.7 million in 4Q09 compared to 4Q08.
  • Daily average trading value for on-market trades (OMT) and direct business trades (DBT) was higher at RM1.21 billion (4Q08: RM0.91 billion).

Derivatives trading revenue recorded a decline of 20 per cent to RM8.2 million in 4Q09 compared to 4Q08.
  • The decrease was primarily due to a drop in total number of contracts traded to 1.36 million contracts in 4Q09 (4Q08: 1.45 million contracts) following the lower interest in FKLI contracts.

Stable revenue increased by 19% to RM28.3 million in 4Q09 compared to 4Q08 primarily due to
  • higher public issue fees as a result of an increase in number of allotment for initial public offerings (IPOs),
  • higher CDS fees in line with the improvement in the securities market,
  • higher additional issue fees as a result of an increase in the number of new call warrants listed and
  • higher additional listing fees as a result of an increase in corporate activities mainly from rights issuance.

For FY09,
  • net profit was RM177.58 million versus RM104.42 million in FY08.
  • Revenue was RM402.42 million compared with RM331.67 million.
