Banking, Finance and Securities law in Petaling Jaya

Banking, finance and securities lawyers advise on loan and security documentation, capital markets transactions, and regulatory compliance. Malaysia's financial sector runs a dual system: the Financial Services Act 2013 governs conventional banking and insurance, and the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 governs Islamic banking and takaful — both regulated by Bank Negara Malaysia. The firms below handle banking and finance matters in Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

Common questions

What law governs banking in Malaysia?

The Financial Services Act 2013 governs conventional banking and insurance, and the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 governs Islamic banking and takaful — both under Bank Negara Malaysia's oversight. Together they replaced the older Banking and Financial Institutions Act 1989 and several other separate laws when they came into force in 2013.

What's the difference between a conventional and an Islamic finance lawyer?

Islamic finance lawyers structure transactions to comply with Shariah principles under the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013, while conventional finance lawyers work under the Financial Services Act 2013. Many Malaysian firms handle both, since the country runs a dual banking system.

Do banking lawyers in Petaling Jaya handle capital markets and securities work?

Some do — that falls under the Capital Markets and Services Act 2007, regulated separately by the Securities Commission Malaysia. Confirm a firm's specific transaction experience before engaging them.
