Malaysia has taken a major step forward in modernising its arbitration landscape with the entry into force of the Arbitration (Amendment) Act 2024 (Act) and the Code of Practice for Third Party Funding 2026 (Code). From 1 January 2026, Malaysian parties and international investors can benefit from a clear, robust, and progressive statutory regime for third party funding (TPF) in arbitration. This reform brings Malaysia into alignment with leading arbitral jurisdictions such as Singapore and Hong Kong, and signals a strong commitment to access to justice and investor confidence.
