As the COVID-19 pandemic brought cross-border ventures to a grinding
halt in 2020, Export-Import Bank of Malaysia Berhad (EXIM Bank) quickly
realigned priorities, focusing on bolstering support for businesses and driving
the resilience of the nation’s economy. Efforts were channelled towards
restructuring loan repayments for our customers, facilitating moratoriums,
and working with the Ministry of Finance to assist the business community
through this difficult and challenging period.
Numerous fiscal and non-fiscal stimulus measures were introduced by the
Government during the year under the Budget 2021 theme of “Resilient As
One, Together We Triumph”. Living up this theme, EXIM Bank spearheaded
the National Supply Chain Finance Platform (JanaNiaga), which is focused
on assisting the financial position of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)
that supply to the Government or Government-Linked Companies (GLCs).
By providing SMEs with cash flow solutions and access to affordable loans,
JanaNiaga will enable these businesses to survive and ready to thrive once
opportunities emerge.
