Investing in Malaysia ADRs / Malaysia Stocks List
Unfortunately and as of 2014, there are no Malaysia ADRs trading on the NYSE or the NASDAQ nor are there any Malaysia closed-end funds but there are a number of important Malaysia stocks with ADRs on the OTC market. However, many of these Malaysian ADRs are big diversified conglomerate types of groups owned or controlled by local Chinese taipans, are government controlled and/or have close ties to the government and hence, the ruling party of Malaysia. For a better understanding about investing in Malaysia and Malaysian ADRs along with any risks involved, check out our following articles posted on Seeking Alpha: The Malay Dilemma: Is Malaysia A Safe Emerging Market Investment? and Malaysian Elections: Will The Malaysia ETF Sink Or Rally? Investors interested in investing in Malaysia ADRs should also check out our Malaysia ETF list, Southeast Asia ETF list (region wide), Asia Pacific ETF list and Southeast Asia closed-end fund list pages.
