RAM does not give out this award every year, only to a selected few when there is a landmark structure. Of course, these awards are not possible without the support and efforts by our dynamic SkyWorld team and consultants. My special thanks to NewParadigm Capital Markets Sdn Bhd who have helped to structure, develop, arrange and advise on this financial structure.”

 

This innovative SUKUK program has earlier won the best Structured Finance Deal of the Year by IFN, the world’s leading Islamic Financial News provider. SkyWorld has been instrumental to the development of the Malaysian debt capital market. With quality land banks located in the city centre totalling more than RM13billion in gross development value, SkyWorld is on right track of transforming the city and unlocking its land value.
