Jireh’s Hope
| Project Title | Jireh’s Hope – Impact driven publication that features social enterprises, NGOs, CSR, and sustainable initiatives in Malaysia. |
| Current Status | Pre-Revenue |
| Amount Invested | RM3,000 |
| Funding Required | RM300,000 or less |
| Description | We exclusively feature social enterprises, NGOs, and sustainable initiatives.
As we grow our reader base, we want to work with big brands to feature their CSR initiatives. |
| Business Opportunity | Public limited companies spend millions on CSR initiatives. They publish this information publicly through their annual & sustainability reports. However, this information is rarely available when you perform a general Google search. This is a missed opportunity for the brands themselves.
We’re growing a reader base that has an interest in social & environmentally conscious initiatives. As such, we hope to create featured written & video (in the future) content for such brands. By doing so, we hope to drive more value to their CSR initiatives, and thus, strengthen brand loyalty. Currently there are over 900 publicly listed companies in Malaysia. It’s mandatory for them to have sustainable initiatives. We could potentially end up working & creating content for all these companies. |
| Revenue / Business Model | We have a free model where we create content for NGOs & SEs. The articles are written by our team, and published without their approval.
We charge big brands & companies to create specialised & featured content. Brands that pay for articles/video will have more control over the tone & the content in general. Furthermore, we’ll also tailor it to maximise branding value. We’ll also run social media ads to provide max. exposure for the created content. We want to start charging brands Rm500 for a start but we can increase this price as the brand grows. We can eventually charge anywhere from RM2,500 – 6,000 depending on the reader base. |

Payment is absolute and there will be no default what so ever. Price of oil may pose a small risk as the price fluctuates over time. However, the cost of production can be controlled based on the formulation with multiple additive packages. Mitigation To minimize drop in margin, we have acquired a number of additive suppliers to retain cost structure. Prices of oil may fluctuate up and down. However the difference would not be too much and we could anticipate the trend beforehand. |

| Description | GreenMan MCM Eco Workers Camps – Bringing the 1st ever Branded GreenMan Eco Workers Camps to the Construction, Engineering, Infrastructure and other heavy industry projects What is a GreenMan Eco Workers Camp? Every large Project requires a lot of workers; usually they are not from the local area so they need to be accommodated for the life of the project. International contractors and engineering firms are looking for better standards and sustainability, to meet their corporate requirements – this need is not being addressed currently. What’s the difference between a GreenMan Eco Workers Camp and a normal camp? Normal Camp * Traditional buildings GreenMan Eco Camp * Fastbuild sustainable insulated buildings |

Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd Discretionary Trading Services
| Current Status | Growth |
| Amount Invested | RM150K |
| Funding Required | RM5,000,000 or more |
| Description | We are a business division of Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd that specializes in Equity Portfolio Management Services for sophisticated investors who has the financial resources to invest in the stock market but do not have the resources in terms of expertise and time to devise, manage and construct an equity portfolio that generates consistent returns from the stock market.
Based on our back-testing records, we managed to achieve investment returns above 25.0% for year 2015 and 2016, respectively and for 2017, some of our portfolios are sitting from 4.0% to near 10.0% net investment gains at this current juncture. |
| Business Opportunity | For the past 20 years, statistics have shown that most mutual funds or multiple investment services in the financial industry has failed to outperform their respective benchmark indices or generate consistent and sustainable investment returns for their investors owing to the structural issue that regulators have imposed on the investment management players and the relatively high cost of investments for their financial products.
We recognize this persistent problem that is engulfing the industry and created a solution to the benefit of our investors. Our structure eradicates the high cost structure by removing the management fees and sales charges which is common in most mutual fund products as we have created a low cost model and we have also built our own ideal portfolio composition and holdings, which plays a significant role in the performance of most investment products that is available in the financial industry. Here we are targeting SME business owners, corporate owners, directors, High Net Worth Individuals, Family Offices, cooperatives, government agencies to participate in our services to optimize their financial resources and diversify their wealth by investing into companies/sectors that is different from the sectors that they have high investment exposure. Meanwhile, we also offer three types of portfolio that cater to the diverse needs of our market segments, namely Aggressive, Moderate and Conservative, with each having their respective portfolio composition, selection of stocks, degree of volatility and investment returns expectations (dividend + capital appreciation or 100.0% capital appreciation). |
| Revenue / Business Model | We place a lot of emphasis on our fundamental research in selecting small, middle and large capitalization companies/stocks that displays strong earnings growth coupled with healthy balance sheet (with an improving equity position, less or no gearing, preferably those with strong cash flow visibility) and companies that will continue to post strong earnings growth over the next 3-4 quarters or so. The nature of earnings growth must be meaningful and not due to one off events such as disposal of property, plant or equipment or financial assets but rather expansion of a new product line, diversification into a new market segment and many more.
Once we have identified these companies, we will keep them into our monitoring list to watch for potential development in terms of prices, technical analysis and market psychology by using our proprietary technical approach. For each and every position that we take, we aim to achieve returns of at least 3.0-5.0x higher than our cost as we place a strong emphasis in our risk to reward assessment and we seek to compound our investment gains over time so our investors could benefit not just from several investment positions but consistent performance of winning investment positions over a relatively long period of time. |
| Management Team | Ryan Lim Experience in Investment Banking, Corporate Finance and Equities Research before spearheading this new business division under Malacca Securities, specializing in fundamental and technical research, equity portfolio management and portfolio restructuring.I also have two team members that assist me with day to day fundamental research and equity portfolio management. |
| Company Background | Our company has been in the stockbroking business for more than 50 years in Malaysia and our company is well backed by its sister company, Scientex Berhad, which is owned by the Lim family in Malaysia. The family is also one of the top richest family in Malaysia. |
| Funding Milestone | We have not achieved any milestone at this current juncture because this is the area where we are still lacking. Hence, we would really like to speak with potential investors that appreciate our value proposition. |
| % Equity Allocation | 100 |
| Expected ROI | 15-25% Per Annum |
| Risks and Mitigation | We have a strict stop loss policy in every investment position that we take. This is to ensure that our clients do not suffer substantial losses on their investment principal and by implementing this, we would also manage to protect our investment gains over time. This is one of the most crucial component in our portfolio management and we adopt a no-nonsense approach when it comes to this section. |
