CGC Malaysia and Maybank Islamic have recently formalised a strategic collaboration to introduce Malaysia’s first supply chain financing guarantee scheme anchored by Mid-Tier Companies (MTCs).

The agreement was signed by Mr. Sean Tan, Chief Business Officer of CGC, and Dr. Muhd Ramadhan Fitri Ellias, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Head of Group Islamic Finance and Value-based Strategy of Maybank Islamic Berhad. The signing was witnessed by En. Mohamed Nazri Omar, President and Chief Executive Officer of CGC and En. Mohamad Yasin Abdullah, Group Chief Executive Officer, Islamic Banking & Chief Executive Officer of Maybank Islamic Berhad.

Through BizJamin-i Mid-Tier Companies guarantee scheme, eligible MTCs can access Shariah-compliant supply chain financing supported by CGC’s guarantee. This enables suppliers within the MTC ecosystem, many of which are MSMEs, to receive earlier payments against approved invoices, improving liquidity and business continuity.

The scheme features a pay-per-utilisation guarantee fee structure and seamless digital financing channels, offering a more flexible and efficient way to access working capital while strengthening supply chain resilience.

By facilitating access to financing across the supply chain, CGC continues to support MTCs in building more resilient business ecosystems while contributing to a more inclusive Malaysian economy.
