Does the 50% rule affect EPF property deals?

Question

## The 50 per cent Bumiputera equity requirement applies to EPF property disposals under the updated guidelines

Accepted Answer

Yes, the updated Ministry of Economy Properties Acquisition Guidelines apply to the Employees Provident Fund and other GLICs, meaning the 50 per cent Bumiputera equity threshold affects EPF property deals worth RM20 million and above. DAP veteran Lim Guan Eng specifically highlighted this as a significant concern, noting that the guidelines extend beyond government-linked companies to statutory bodies like the EPF, which he described as the premier retirement fund for all Malaysians regardless of ethnicity.
