Cliff LimGUEST
What is going to be tricky is that they will start falling into regulatory watchlists.
Cliff LimGUEST
which will hurt foreign investment as well as international banking access.
Cliff LimGUEST
And to also mention as a last point, with the rapid growth of digital finance and crypto, regulators have no choice now but to shift from, I would say, reactive enforcement to more proactive oversight.
Rich BradburyHOST
Just to go back to the Singapore case, three billion SingDollar showed how illicit money can enter into property, into companies and other legitimate assets.
Cliff LimGUEST
And there are a couple of things we could do, but it will take a significant amount of transparency, collaboration for it to happen.
Cliff LimGUEST
Now, first, if we have an I would say maybe an ASEAN-wide financial intelligence network or framework, you know, real-time financial institutions can then share and flag out suspicious movements.
Cliff LimGUEST
So before it actually leaves the legal banking system.
Cliff LimGUEST
Secondly, we must also harmonize a standardized kind of crypto and digital asset regulations because in this way, the criminals can't arbitrage on the weaker rules in certain jurisdiction and take advantage of that.
PeterHOST
You want to name some banks?

Syed MohazriGUEST
So the second, banks are beginning to integrate nature into credit decisions.
PeterHOST
By my end of one month, I started to get an idea of what are the different stocks in the market.
PeterHOST
And of course, uh, from there, let's say for example, they talk about a company called, say, Coform, you know, or CIMB or Hubsing, then you go and Google yourself, uh, and go and read actually what does this company do, uh.
FrankieHOST
Mm, mm.
Li XinHOST
But what are the things that I, I should actually take note?
FrankieHOST
Mm.
PeterHOST
Throw in even 50 ringgit, 100 ringgit.
PeterHOST
In fact, the first time I bought stocks, right, I still remember I bought CIMB, yeah, that time, yeah, very long time ago.
PeterHOST
And you know how much was my first purchase? 200 ringgit.

Patrick ChangGUEST
I think that's not really kind of factored in by a lot of market participants, but I think that's something to be concerned about because as much as I say about the strong earnings growth that we're seeing today, I think if there's come some I mean, for a second, if the Democrats do win and regular trades come in, then there is obviously going to be volatility back on the tech sector.
Rich BradburyHOST
Patrick, thank you for joining us this morning.
