SURPRISINGLY, fewer companies were wound up, either voluntarily or compulsorily, last year compared with 2019, even though the Covid-19 pandemic pushed Malaysia to its worst recession since the Asian financial crisis of 1997/98.
Only 3,294 companies including limited liability partnerships (LLPs) were wound up in 2020, compared with 5,653 companies and LLPs the year before, despite the economic hardship resulting from the Movement Control Order (MCO).
Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) CEO Nor Azimah Abdul Aziz said the MCO had not proved to be a major obstacle for businesses, especially LLPs.
“The decline in closure of businesses and, especially, winding-up of companies could be attributed to the various forms of incentives provided by the government, including the SSM’s initiatives in helping business entities, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs),” Azimah says in an email interview with The Edge.
