KLDX is an Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) platform regulated and registered with the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC). We democratise investors’ access to private market assets and help businesses raise funds up to RM100 million through the issuance of security tokens / digital securities.
Investors will have the opportunity to invest in tokens representing interests in a broad range of private market assets such as equity in a company, fixed income, private equity funds, venture capital funds and other financial securities.
Security tokens / digital securities are financial securities issued and managed on a blockchain or distributed ledger technology platform. These securities represent ownership or investment in real-world assets, similar to traditional securities like fixed income, shares, venture capital or private equity funds and other financial securities (‘asset classes’).
The digitisation of these securities involves representing the ownership and related rights of these asset classes on a blockchain in an immutable and secure manner.
Security tokens are recognised as securities under the Capital Markets and Services (Prescription of Securities)(Digital Currency and Digital Token) Order 2019, the same way as traditional securities, such as shares and bonds.
Private markets offer unique and exciting investment opportunities in a wide range of assets such as shares in a company, fixed income, venture capital or private equity funds and other financial securities (‘asset classes’) that are not available in the traditional stock market.
Generally, the private markets are not as widely known or talked about as the public markets due to the fact that many—with the exception of corporate investors and the very wealthy—are excluded from participating in them.
But this is exactly where KLDX is different. We enable all types of individual investors— including sophisticated, angel, and retail—as well as corporate investors access to private market investing in a safe, well-regulated, and customer-centric platform.
You can start by signing up and registering as an Investor on KLDX’s website (www.kldx.com), which is free for everyone.
Once you have done that, you can simply log in to your Investor Account and view the investment opportunities that are available.
Investment Notes refer to any agreement indicating a monetary loan that is executed or offered through an electronic platform. Investors who invest in these products typically expect a financial return from the investment.
In Malaysia, you’ll often come across conventional or Islamic Investment Notes. Both products are similarly, with the latter adhering to Shariah principles and the concept being endorsed by a Shariah Adviser.
