INVEST Fair 2026, Malaysia’s largest retail investment event, officially opened on 18 July 2026 at the Mid Valley Exhibition Centre in Kuala Lumpur, bringing together investing, financial education and financial technology under one roof. Organised by ShareInvestor Malaysia Sdn Bhd, the two-day event was officially opened by Dato’ Fad’l Mohamed, Chief Executive Officer of Bursa Malaysia, who returned as the Guest-of-Honour.
In his opening address, Dato’ Fad’l Mohamed noted that while saving builds financial discipline, investing allows Malaysians to grow their wealth over time. He highlighted that more than 325,000 new retail CDS accounts have been opened as at mid-June this year, reflecting growing interest in the market. “As participation grows, investors need access to trusted information, practical knowledge and the confidence to navigate the market,” he said, emphasising Bursa Malaysia’s commitment to investor education and a wider range of investment opportunities.
Themed “Money. Finance. Technology.”, INVEST Fair 2026 spans Halls 1, 2 and 3 of the exhibition centre and is expected to welcome approximately 20,000 visitors on 18 and 19 July.
