How to Buy Malaysian ETFs
ETFs trade on Bursa Malaysia like stocks — you need a CDS account and brokerage account. Purchase through any stockbroker. Unlike unit trusts, ETFs can be bought and sold throughout the trading day at real-time prices.
Global ETF Access for Malaysian Investors
Beyond local ETFs, Malaysians can access global ETFs through: Moomoo (access to S&P 500 ETFs, NASDAQ ETFs), TD Ameritrade, and Interactive Brokers. These require USD accounts but provide exposure to VOO (S&P 500), QQQ (NASDAQ), and thousands of global ETFs.
Syariah-Compliant ETFs
MyETF DJIM25 and TradePlus Shariah ETFs offer Shariah-certified ETF exposure for Muslim investors who want to avoid interest-bearing and prohibited sector companies.
