Employee Provident Fund (EPF)
A MSWG founding member since 2000. EPF was established in 1951
to manage Malaysia’s mandatory national pension system. In
2004, EPF managed investments of RM227billion (USD60billion). 20%
of these investments were made in the Malaysian equity market. In
2003, EPF set up its own in-house unit to research and supervise
the corporate governance of its investments.
“The EPF had played an important role in the formation of
the Minority Shareholders Watchdog Body. The main objective of the
Body is to enhance shareholders activism by promoting best practices
amongst listed entities in the KLSE. As a pioneer of the Minority
Shareholders Watchdog Body, it is only befitting that the Board
(ie, of EPF) itself adheres to the best practices enshrined in the
code.”
