Guest: Firdaos Rosli, Chief Economist, AmBank Group
We sit down with Firdaos Rosli, Chief Economist at AmBank Group, to look ahead to Budget 2026 through the lens of Malaysia’s broader economy.
As global uncertainties persist, inflationary pressures remain, and fiscal consolidation efforts continue, Malaysia faces the challenge of sustaining growth while navigating structural reforms and maintaining investor confidence. Yet within these headwinds lie opportunities, from targeted subsidies and smarter spending to policies that could strengthen productivity and long-term competitiveness.
Firdaos shares his insights on what to watch in this year’s budget, from the assumptions guiding fiscal strategy to the key indicators shaping Malaysia’s outlook for 2026 and beyond.
From reform priorities to spending trade-offs, it’s a grounded look at how Malaysia can balance stability with ambition as Budget 2026 is tabled.
