FX.co ★ Malaysia’s Money Supply Growth Eases to 5.7% in July YoY

Malaysia’s money supply growth decelerated in July 2026, with the year-over-year expansion easing to 5.7%, down from 6.7% in June 2026. The data, updated on 28 August 2026, indicate a moderation in liquidity growth in the financial system compared with the same period a year earlier.

On a year-over-year basis, the “actual” figure for July reflects how the money supply has changed relative to July of the previous year, while the “previous” reading for June shows the change versus June a year earlier. The step down from 6.7% to 5.7% suggests that monetary conditions are expanding at a slower pace than in the prior month, which may have implications for credit growth, inflation dynamics and overall economic momentum in Malaysia.
