KUALA LUMPUR, 12 August 2025 – In a defining moment for Malaysia’s property ecosystem, PEPS Ventures Berhad (“PEPS Ventures” or “the Company”), a wholly owned subsidiary of PEPS Malaysia, today brought together key industry players to officially launch ValuationXchange — a digital platform built to restore trust, strengthen compliance, and drive the digital transformation of property valuation and financing in the country.
Hosted at Tropicana Golf & Country Resort, the event gathered leaders from valuation firms, financial institutions, real estate agencies, and technology providers — all aligned around a shared mission: to elevate standards and transparency in property lending. The launch follows an earlier corporate announcement by Infomina Berhad on 18 July 2025, which introduced the formation of Infomina Geolytik Sdn Bhd （“Infomina Geolytik”） in collaboration with Geolytik Tech Sdn Bhd, the company behind ValuationXchange.
ValuationXchange is Malaysia’s first industry-endorsed digital valuation platform, developed by Infomina Geolytik and endorsed by PEPS Ventures as a pioneer in rallying the industry around the #TransformationTribe movement, initiated by ValuationXchange. The platform complements the role of professional valuers by embedding compliance, auditability, and collaboration into every stage of the property valuation and financing journey.
Sr. Subramaniam Arumugam, President of PEPS Malaysia, said: “ValuationXchange protects the integrity of the profession as a whole and ensures valuers remain central to Malaysia’s property ecosystem. It empowers valuers with a system that upholds standards, strengthens compliance, and reinforces their role in responsible lending decisions.”
Fully aligned with the Malaysian Valuation Standards (MVS) and Bank Negara Malaysia’s Risk Management in Technology (RMiT) framework, ValuationXchange connects valuers, bankers, and real estate professionals into a secure, tamper-resistant ecosystem designed to reduce risk, streamline approvals, and protect the integrity of property data.
Yee Chee Meng, Chief Executive Officer cum Managing Director of Infomina Berhad, said: “Today’s financial institutions need valuation flows that are secure, auditable, and scalable. ValuationXchange was built with that expectation in mind – combining Infomina’s bank-grade infrastructure with a deep understanding of banking compliance requirements.”
A key milestone of the launch was the announcement of a strategic alliance with ESP Global, one of Malaysia’s leading real estate agency networks. With over 5,400 agents transacting more than 1,500 sub-sale properties monthly across Malaysia, ESP Global becomes the first real estate agency group to integrate with ValuationXchange. Through this alliance, agents are now empowered to pre-validate buyer credentials before valuation and loan submission — reducing rejection rates, shortening processing timelines, and giving homebuyers a more seamless, transparent financing experience.
Aldrin Tan, CEO of ESP Global, shared: “This alliance gives our agents a bigger role in the financing journey. By helping pre-qualify buyers and submitting more complete applications, we’re enabling a faster, more transparent loan process and delivering better experiences to our clients.”
“This is just the first step in our mission to elevate trust for a sustainable property market. By giving agents greater visibility, they can serve customers with more certainty and that certainty builds trust. We’re proud to have ESP Global as the pioneer in the real estate agency segment, and we look forward to onboarding more agencies across Malaysia to extend these capabilities to agents nationwide,” added Joe Thor, Executive Director of Infomina Geolytik and Advisor to PEPS Ventures.

The launch event opened with a welcome address by PEPS Malaysia, followed by the unveiling of ValuationXchange and the official announcement of the strategic alliance with ESP Global. A panel discussion titled “Elevating Trust for a Sustainable Property Market” brought together Sr. Elvin Fernandez, Joe Thor, Yee Chee Meng, and Aldrin Tan to discuss the role of digital infrastructure, regulatory alignment, and industry unity in strengthening market confidence.
The session concluded with a hands-on platform showcase, media interviews, and networking between leaders from across Malaysia’s property, tech, and banking sectors.
ValuationXchange is Malaysia’s first industry-endorsed property valuation digital workflow platform. Built by Infomina Geolytik and endorsed by PEPS Ventures, the platform empowers financial institutions, real estate professionals, and valuers to collaborate within a secure, standardised, and tamper-resistant digital environment.
Key features of ValuationXchange include:
- Fully digitised valuation workflows
- Malaysian Valuation Standards compliant
- Risk Management in Technology compliant
- Real-time collaboration between valuers and banks with verifiable audit trails
- Backed by Infomina’s secure, banking-grade infrastructure
Joe Thor, Advisor to PEPS Ventures and Executive Director of Infomina Geolytik, added: “ValuationXchange is not a tool. It’s an ecosystem. It complements the work of valuers, agents, and banks by creating a shared space for transparent, traceable, and compliant property valuation. The platform is designed to support collaboration, not replacement.”
