PWC moves into TRX, advancing Kuala Lumpur's status as financial hub: Amir Hamzah
KUALA LUMPUR: The entry of PricewaterhouseCoopers Malaysia Holdings Sdn Bhd (PwC Malaysia) into Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) as an anchor tenant marks another step forward in positioning Kuala Lumpur as a premier destination for global businesses and in strengthening its International Financial Centre (IFC) ecosystem.
Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said PwC's presence in the district is expected to create high-quality job opportunities and enhance regional integration across ASEAN and beyond.
"Today's groundbreaking ceremony is more than just a success for TRX, it is a win for Kuala Lumpur.
"Realising Kuala Lumpur's full potential as a competitive international financial centre demands fullalignment and coordinated execution across all arms of government, so that we continue to strengthen KL's centrality and competitiveness," he said during the groundbreaking ceremony for the New TRX Development today.
His speech was delivered by Finance Ministry Deputy Secretary-General (Investment) Datuk Shahrazat Ahmad.
