Ringgit’s Outperformance Set to Extend Next Year on AI Boost

The Malaysian ringgit is on course to beat its Asian peers for a second straight year, and some strategists are expecting the outperformance to extend into 2026.

Malaysia’s deep linkages to the global tech supply chain, positive growth prospects and the government’s continued push on fiscal consolidation bode well for the ringgit, according to strategists. A likely stable central bank policy next year offers further support.
