The advance estimate for Malaysia’s second quarter economic growth surpassed estimates at 5.8% year-on-year, amidst broad-based gains from manufacturing to consumption. The better-than-expected growth data helped the local benchmark FBM KLCI to end the week firmer by 1.08%, bucking the profit-taking seen in some other global equities. In the US, reports of possible tighter curbs on exports of advanced semiconductor technology to China led to profit-taking in Technology stocks, with the Nasdaq ending the week down by 3.65%. Investors however took the decline as an opportunity to broaden their rotation into small-caps, which saw the Russell 2000 close the week up by 1.68%. Inflation continues to be on the radar as the Fed’s preferred gauge, the Personal Consumption Expenditures index reading for June will be released. Central Bank policy meetings across Canada, China and Singapore will also be in focus in the near term.

As part of Maybank's M25+ priorities to lead on customer centricity, we seek solutions to elevate user experiences through digitalisation. As such, an area we are tracking closely is the progress of digital trade finance. Currently, electronic bills of lading, which are digital documents of title for goods shipped, comprise less than 5% of the bills of lading issued worldwide. "This growth is expected to accelerate as the world's largest container shipping companies have committed to using electronic bills of lading by 2030," said Tat Yeen Yap, our Head of Supply Chain Solutions, Transaction Banking Singapore, Maybank. There are of course risks. Yap shares his views and mitigating measures in an interview with Global Trade Review - https://maybank.my/4bS6Qjc #TradeFinance #SupplyChainFinance #MaybankTransactionBanking
