S&P affirmation of Malaysia’s ratings is testament to country’s vaccination efforts and economic resilience, says Finance Minister

KUALA LUMPUR, June 22 — S&P Global Ratings’ affirmation of Malaysia’s sovereign credit ratings is a testament to the country’s strong external position, monetary policy flexibility, recognised track record of supporting sustainable economic growth as well as economic resilience during times of uncertainty, said the Ministry of Finance.

Guided by thresholds based on the average daily Covid-19 new cases, utilisation rate of intensive care unit beds and the percentage of population fully vaccinated, the NRP will enable the people, businesses and investors to plan accordingly as Malaysia moves from one phase to the next. He said in reinforcing growth prospects, the government has implemented stimulus and assistance packages valued at RM380 billion since the onset of the pandemic, and an annual budget worth RM322.5 billion for 2021.

So far, Malaysia has administered an average of 160,000 doses per day, which is expected to increase to 400,000 doses per day in August 2021. At this rate, 60 per cent of the population are expected to be fully inoculated by end-October this year. Guided by the Medium-Term Fiscal Framework, the estimated budget deficit of six per cent this year is expected to decrease to an average of 4.5 per cent between 2021 and 2023, based on the assumption of higher crude oil prices, as well as the reduced requirement for pandemic-related fiscal support.
