LAW Partnership Advises on RM130 Million Disposal of Industrial Land and Factories in Johor
LAW Partnership successfully represented our client in a high-stake transaction involving the sale of three (3) industrial lands and facilities in the State of Johor, with a combined value exceeding RM130 million.
- The sale and purchase were executed via asset-backed securitisation (ABS) through a special purpose vehicle (SPV).
- ABS is a structured financing mechanism that converts non-liquid assets — in this case, the land and industrial facilities — into tradeable instruments in the capital markets.
- By enabling the SPV to fund the purchase through the issuance of investment-grade debt securities to investors, leveraging the value of the underlying assets to access a more efficient and cost-effective source of financing.
- For our client, this offers a more streamlined exit to liquidity and enables risk redistribution, delivering a faster and more efficient way to realise value from their high-value assets.
This transaction highlights the impact of innovative financing structures, such as ABS, in creating value for all stakeholders involved.
The matter was led by Dato’ Brian Law, with support from Associate Lim Yan Yi.
