Malaysia’s central bank has revised its economic outlook for 2025, citing challenges stemming from U.S. trade policies. Bank Negara Malaysia now anticipates economic growth within a range of 4% to 4.8%, down from its earlier projection of 4.5% to 5.5%. Inflation expectations have also been adjusted, with the central bank forecasting a range of 1.5% to 2.3% for this year, compared to a prior estimate of 2% to 3.5%. These adjustments reflect a broader moderation in both cost and demand projections.
