Invest Asean offers insight on Asean opportunities

Invest Asean 2013 is set to enable investors to make informed decisions about Asean markets and stocks, said Bursa Malaysia Bhd chief executive officer, Datuk Tajuddin Atan.

He said the event was designed with a goal to increase the pool of region retail investors who would be well-versed and familiar with trading Asean stocks just as they were trading stocks in their home market.

"Having recently launched the Asean Trading Link to facilitate cross-border trading, we are now determined to empower investors with keen knowledge and insights of the Asean capital market," he said in a statement Monday.

Invest Asean 2013 underscores the collaborative effort and on-going progress of Asean Exchanges towards the development of the Asean capital market as a highly investable asset class.

Organised by Asean Exchange, the event will showcase Asean Stars, the 30 most exciting companies from each country and to provide investors the exclusive access to public-listed companies of Asean exchanges, market and sector outlook.
