Key points
- The ministry said that although high approved investment figures provide a strong foundation for future economic expansion, approved projects do not necessarily translate into physical private investment.
- “Currently, the time-lag dynamics and conversion rates between official approval and actual physical execution call for greater coherence,” MoF said in its Economic Outlook 2027 report released today.
- “This finding supports the lag effect between official approval and physical realisation due to the complexity of projects and implementation procedures,” MoF said, adding that the establishment of the Invest Malaysia Facilitation Centre in 2023 is expected to accelerate the conversion from approval to operation.
