KUALA LUMPUR: Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) will be publishing three reports, namely the Annual Report 2019 (AR 2019), Economic and Monetary Review 2019 (EMR 2019) and the Financial Stability Review for Second Half 2019 (FSR 2H2019) on April 3.
In a statement today, the central bank said it has taken a different approach in its publications this year.
“The AR 2019 publication aims to further reach out to members of the public to enable greater understanding of what BNM does, how it discharges its mandates and accountabilities as well as the roles and functions of the bank.
“This is also in line with the practice adopted by other central banks. The AR 2019 also highlights key operations and initiatives that the bank undertook in 2019,” it said.
Meanwhile, the EMR 2019 is a more technical publication and will focus on the bank’s economic assessments and forecasts.
Similarly, the biannual FSR 2H2019 is a technical publication detailing BNM’s risks assessment with regards to financial stability. – March 26, 2020, Bernama
