MSCI Keeps Malaysia’s Main Index Intact and Cuts Seven Small Caps

Kuala Lumpur, 12 November 2026 – MSCI Inc. is keeping the constituents of its main Malaysian equity index unchanged in its November review, while removing seven stocks from its Malaysia Small Cap Index and adding one. Electronics manufacturer NationGate Holdings Berhad is the sole small-cap addition. MSCI announced the global review on 11 November and said changes would take effect at the close of trading on 30 November 2026.

For investors in Malaysian equities, the changes are concentrated in the smaller-company benchmark rather than the index that tracks the largest and mid-sized companies. Funds that follow the small-cap index may need to adjust their holdings around the implementation date. The changes do not affect the companies’ listings on Bursa Malaysia, and the announcement does not specify how much money will move.
