1 Development of Myanmar Industry and Significance of Inauguration of YSX Shigeto Kashiwazaki Head, Asian Business Development Group Daiwa Institute of Research Ltd.
2 Ⅰ. Steady economic growth in Myanmar Myanmar has been undergoing steady and continuous economic growth after the transition to democratic government in The strongest factor is continued aggressive foreign direct investments inflow. Investments overseas for oil & gas development marked the beginning. Telecommunication sector has also developed rapidly due to allowing foreign businesses to get a license. Influx of foreign businessmen/women associated with the FDI expansion has promoted housing & construction sector s growth. Amount of Foreign Direct Investment (in mil USD) FY2011 FY2012 FY2013 FY (Apr-Dec) Agriculture Livestock & Fisheries *FY2015 (Left 4/3) Mining Manufacturing ,827 1, Power 4, Oil and Gas ,220 2,049 2,732 Construction 0 Transport & Communication 1 1,190 1,679 1,599 2,132 Hotel and Tourism Real Estate Industrial Estate Other Services Total 4,645 1,420 4,108 8,010 4,916 6,554 Source: DIR (Made from CSO data) 1
3 Ⅱ. Manufacturing presence remains unchanged Share of manufacturing to total value added in Myanmar has leveled off since Manufacturing sector has been facing slow growth compered with oil & gas, telecommunication and construction. Insufficient infrastructure is behind --- such as electricity shortage and inadequate logistics. Go sideways 2
4 Ⅲ. Structural change shift toward industrialized country Myanmar will shift its center of industry toward full-fledged manufacturing during next one or two decades. To that end, it is essential to promote greater foreign investments and secure smooth funding place. Yangon Stock Exchange, as a full-fledged capital market has been desired for further development of Myanmar. Transition of primary industry --- toward Manufacturing Labor intensive 1. Agriculture 2. Fishery 3. Forestry 4. Textile & garment 5. Rubber 6. Food processing 7. Tourism Knowledge intensive 1. Automobile and components 2. Electric appliance 3. Electronics components 4. Chemical 5.

5 Ⅳ. Inauguration of stock exchange in Myanmar There were only three countries left without a stock exchange in East/Southeast Asia (Myanmar, Brunei, and North Korea) in In 2016, Yangon Stock Exchange (YSX) finally started stock trading. Mongolian Stock Exchange (1991) Taiwan Stock Exchange (1961) Hanoi Stock Exchange (2005) Lao Securities Exchange (2010) Tokyo Stock Exchange (1878) Korea Exchange (1956) Shanghai Stock Exchange (1990) Shenzhen Stock Exchange (1990) Yangon Stock Exchange (2015) Stock Exchange of Thailand (1974) Cambodia Securities Exchange (2011) Bursa Malaysia (1964) Source: DIR Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (1914) Philippine Stock Exchange (1927) Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (2000) Singapore Exchange (1973) Indonesia Stock Exchange (1977) 4
6 Ⅴ. Establishment of YSX JV Company and Opening of YSX Yangon Stock Exchange Joint-Venture Company Ltd. was established as a operating body, jointly held by Myanmar and Japan. (Total share capital: MMK 32bn) [Shareholders] Myanmar: Myanma Economic Bank (MEB) Japan: Daiwa Institute of Research, Japan Exchange Group MEB s Managing Director concurrently serves as the MD of YSX. (with 15 Myanmar employees and 6 Japanese advisors) The JV company prepared for starting stock trading. (legal framework, building renovation, ICT system introduction, operation procedures etc.) YSX s opening ceremony was held in December 2015 (meeting Myanmar government s target year) Japan s first project to establish a full-fledged stock exchange overseas. (capital market development project by cooperation among the Japanese government and the private sector) YSX has already become a touristic spot in the city, with frequent financial educational seminars. Seven Principles for YSX Establishment I. Establish YSX as a symbol of economic development, which appeals to the general public and the international community. i. Locate it in Yangon as a sole stock trading place for the time being ii. Reside in the former Central Bank of Myanmar Headquarter building or its equivalent iii. Ensure visual presence for media and the public with internal/external decoration and signboards iv. Place it as a symbol of Myanmar s financial market centre II. Ensure independent operation by Myanmar staff through skill transfer at an early stage. Realise operation by local Myanmar staff without Japanese advisors, by skill transfer (of trade monitoring, listing examination, ICT system management etc.) from the Japanese side 5
7 Seven Principles for YSX Establishment (continued) III. Simplify trading rules to lower costs and entry barriers to stock trading. i. Introduce periodic matching at certain time in the beginning, while considering early introduction of continuous matching ii. Standardise trading units, and settlement of transactions in T+3 iii. Simplify trading rules and computerise processes to lower trading costs IV. Adopt a practical listing requirement that reflects real situation of emerging economies. i. Formulate listing criteria that leads to development of a vibrant market, while considering its soundness ii. Target to list 10 to 20 companies in a few years after opening V. Computerise operation to enable efficient trading and minimise errors. i. Think outside the box of existing exchanges and their functions in developed economies ii. Internalise sequential procedures (from ordering, matching, clearing, settlement, delivering to depositing) in to YSX s ICT system to enable efficient operation, to reduce costs, and to maximise revenue iii. Establish a computerised workflow to minimise room for human errors iv. Realise dematerialization of share certificates so as to prepare for enormous clerical work in the future VI. Adopt a cutting-edge framework for ICT system development. i. Adopt open-source cloud technology to simplify future system maintenance and to enable adoption of new technology ii. Equip a reasonable capacity in the beginning, while allowing future strengthening in line with increase of trading volume iii. Focus on minimising future costs for ICT system upgrade VII. Establish YSX as a limited company by shares, and diversify revenue sources for growth in value. i. Secure a reasonable share for the Japanese side, while the Myanmar side holds the majority ii. Diversify YSX s revenue sources as much as possible to maximise its corporate value in a reasonable term iii. Develop market indice and a database for prices, volumes, and values, with focus on distribution of such information 6

Securities companies and candidates for listing [Securities companies] Five companies with a full license (10 companies received a provisional license) MSEC (Myanmar Securities Exchange Centre), KBZ SC Securities and three others (mostly subsidiaries of major commercial banks) have started their business. The remaining five companies (with a provisional license) are expected to be operational in one to two years. [Candidates for listing] Six candidates nominated in Dec 2015, and three of them listed as of Sep 2016 The three remaining candidates and a few new ones are expected to be examined for listing in FY2016, depending on circumstances. Listing criteria are not very severe (see next slide). Listing of companies is expected in a few years.

11 Ⅶ. Market summary and expected development of YSX With the first listing on 25 March 2016, trading started smoothly In the first week, securities companies counters were flooded with new customers seeking to open an account. Myanmar s market is much vibrant in comparison with those of Laos and Cambodia s. The second and third listing companies also stimulated stock trading for a while. Meanwhile, the market somewhat calms down after a few weeks each time of listing, and the market price is in a declining trend for all the three companies. As the trade volume increases and companies profits grow, the share prices are expected to go up again. As YSX welcomes new listed companies, the market is expected to expand with more vibrant trading. Further market development is expected, including opening to foreign investors In addition to increase in the number of listed share, development of fixed income products, mutual funds and institutional investors are expected in a few years. As the trading volume grows, the capital market becomes a viable source of domestic fundraising in Myanmar. Revision of Myanmar Companies Law and Myanmar Investment Law will likely enable foreigners to invest in local companies. In a few years, YSX will likely open its door for foreign investors to purchase shares in the market. Also, joint-venture companies (of local and foreign companies) may be permitted to be listed. Hence, being listed at YSX may provide a viable avenue for exiting direct investment in Myanmar in the near future. 10
