As a testament to Malaysia's firm foothold in the FinTech arena, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), the country's central bank, has established a regulatory sandbox. This allows startups to test and refine innovative products and business models subsequently fostering innovation while ensuring customer protection and financial stability. #BankNegaraMalaysia #BNMSandbox #RegulatoryInnovation
