Malaysia Share-Backed Financing
Non-recourse share-backed financing for holders of Bursa Malaysia–listed equities — direct capital from Squadron’s own balance sheet, with no personal or corporate guarantees.
Squadron Capital deploys non-recourse capital for holders of Bursa Malaysia–listed equities, using the shares as the reference for the facility rather than the recipient’s wider balance sheet. Capital comes directly from Squadron, so terms are fast and discreet.
Concentrated founder and family holdings are common across Bursa Malaysia’s Main Market, where flexible single-stock capital is often hard to source. Founders, listed-company executives, brokers, family offices and HNWIs use Squadron to unlock liquidity from these holdings while keeping market exposure. Squadron has operated in Asia for more than 15 years.
