Moofest Malaysia 2025 Showcases Moomoo’s AI-Driven Leap Toward Smarter, More Informed Investing

Moomoo Securities Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (“Moomoo Malaysia”) concluded Moofest Malaysia 2025, its flagship investor festival held at Pavilion Bukit Jalil. Over the course of three days, the event drew nearly 5,000 investors, fund managers, and market leaders, united under the theme “The New Map of Wealth – From AI to the World.”

The three-day event explored how megatrends such as artificial intelligence, semiconductor innovation, clean energy, and shifting capital flows are reshaping the world’s financial landscape — and how Malaysian investors can seize opportunities in this evolving global map.

In her opening keynote, Indy Lau, Chief Operating Officer of Moomoo Malaysia, highlighted the rapid transformation of Malaysia’s investor landscape, revealing that engagement with AI, semiconductor, and clean energy sectors on the Moomoo platform has risen by more than 40% in 2025.

The familiar paths to wealth no longer apply,” said Indy. “We’re entering an age where investors must think beyond borders and industries. The map of wealth has changed — and Malaysian investors are proving ready to chart it. Our mission at Moomoo is to turn complexity into clarity, empowering investors with smarter tools, deeper insights, and the confidence to take decisive action in an evolving financial world."

Unlocking Global and Local Opportunities for Every Malaysian Investor

At Moofest 2025, Moomoo Malaysia unveiled a new chapter in its mission to empower investors with smarter tools, global access, and inclusive financial opportunities.

Building on its vision of making smart investing simple, Moomoo unveiled the upgraded Moomoo AI, now featuring Bahasa Malaysia language capability, enhanced local market insights, and advanced AI-driven analytics that help investors make sense of both domestic and global market trends with clarity and confidence. This milestone brings institutional-grade intelligence to retail investors, translating complex data into actionable insights and enabling more informed decisions across borders.Moomoo also expanded its product lineup to unlock broader access to global markets. Following the successful launch of US Options Trading last year, which gave Malaysians access to more sophisticated portfolio strategies, Moomoo has further expanded its US Options capabilities in 2025 — offering deeper analytical tools, enhanced risk management features, and educational support to help retail investors trade with institutional-grade precision.

Alongside this, U.S. IPO access is also in the pipeline, and will allow more Malaysians to participate early in high-potential companies shaping the next wave of global innovation, while the launch of Futures Trading opens new avenues to diversify portfolios and manage risk in volatile market conditions. Together, these offerings position Moomoo Malaysia as the definitive bridge between local investors and the world’s most dynamic financial ecosystems.

The company is also broadening its money market portfolio with the the addition of the AHAM Shariah Gold Tracker Fund to its suite of money market funds — giving investors an accessible Gold and Shariah-compliant option to anchor their portfolios with a time-tested store of value. As gold continues to play a pivotal role amid inflation and interest rate uncertainty, this launch reflects Moomoo’s commitment to meeting the diverse investment preferences of Malaysians, including those seeking ethical and faith-aligned products.

Beyond innovation, Moomoo reaffirmed its long-term commitment to Malaysia’s investor community. Following the success of its first Moomoo Store, the company plans to open more new investor hubs worldwide, offering a trusted physical space for learning, expert sessions, and personalised support. Together, these digital and physical touchpoints form a connected ecosystem — intelligent, accessible, and deeply human — ensuring that every Malaysian investor has the tools and confidence to thrive in today's landscape.

Understanding the Shifts Reshaping Wealth

The event turned the spotlight to how global forces — from U.S. policy shifts to Asia’s emerging strength — are redrawing investment maps worldwide.

In a fireside chat, Leong See Meng, Director of Origination & Listing at Bursa Malaysia, joined Roshan Kanesan of BFM 89.9 to explore how Malaysian investors are engaging with the local market amid rising global connectivity. The conversation highlighted how Malaysia’s deepening financial ecosystem, combined with investor appetite for new asset classes, is positioning the nation as a strategic player within ASEAN’s expanding investment corridor.

The theme continued in a high-powered regional panel, “From Washington to ASEAN: Capital Markets in a Shifting World Order,” featuring Geoff Howie (SGX Group), Bruce Zhang, CFA (CSOP Asset Management), and Ang Hin Yik (Eastspring Investments Berhad). The panel discussed how evolving trade dynamics, U.S. policy directions, and Asia’s accelerating capital flows are influencing where investors seek returns next.

“Capital flows are no longer defined by geography — they’re defined by agility,” noted Geoff Howie, Market Strategist at SGX Group. “We’re seeing investors diversify not just across sectors, but across strategies — with ASEAN emerging as a key nexus connecting U.S. capital, China innovation, and regional growth.”

Closing the session on the first day, Isaac Lim, SEA Chief Market Strategist at Moomoo, delivered his highly anticipated session, “The World Rewired: Where Global Investors Should Look Next.” His outlook offered a data-driven perspective on the themes shaping the final quarter of 2025 and beyond — from AI-driven growth and semiconductor demand to shifting tariff and rate environments.

“We’re entering a market cycle defined by dispersion rather than direction,” said Isaac. “Opportunities are not in chasing what’s already run, but in identifying where capital rotation, innovation, and policy convergence intersect. That’s why tools like options trading and data-backed insights on Moomoo have become essential — they help investors navigate uncertainty with strategy, not speculation.”

Isaac also noted that Malaysian investors on Moomoo are increasingly global in their portfolios, with participation in U.S. equities and options surging over the past year. “What’s clear is that Malaysian investors aren’t just watching the global market story — they’re part of it,” he added.

Charting the Future of Intelligent Investing

Throughout the weekend, Moofest Malaysia 2025 hosted a rich lineup of panel discussions, hands-on workshops, and interactive experience zones — offering participants the chance to learn directly from market experts and experience Moomoo’s latest investment innovations in action. Designed to be immersive and educational, these sessions provided practical guidance, real-time market insights, and opportunities for direct engagement with Moomoo’s expert team.

At its core, Moofest 2025 was built around a single goal: to help Malaysian investors navigate the “New Map of Wealth” with greater knowledge, stronger confidence, and a sense of community — transforming investing into an ongoing journey of learning and empowerment.

Following the success of its first Moomoo Store in Kuala Lumpur — also the brand’s first in Southeast Asia — Moomoo reaffirmed its plans to expand its physical network globally. These investor hubs will serve as trusted spaces for financial education, expert consultation, and community engagement, complementing Moomoo’s digital ecosystem to deliver a connected, human-centered investing experience.
