The PFIs would be the domestic banks, merchant banks and Development Financial Institutions including their subsidiaries in Labuan.

Financing will be offered to borrowers who are contractors or sub-contractors, either involved in Construction, Supply of capital or semi capital goods or services or pure services contracts so long as they are Malaysian owned or controlled companies.
