In May 2025, global inflation rates and central bank interest rates showed significant variation across major economies. Most economies initiated interest rate cuts from mid-2024 due to declining inflationary pressures. The U.S., UK, and EU central banks followed a consistent pattern of regular rate reductions throughout late 2024. In early 2025, Russia maintained the highest interest rate at 20 percent, while Japan retained the lowest at 0.5 percent. Varied inflation rates across major economies The inflation landscape varies considerably among major economies. China had the lowest inflation rate at -0.1 percent in May 2025. In contrast, Russia maintained a high inflation rate of 9.9 percent. These figures align with broader trends observed in early 2025, where China had the lowest inflation rate among major developed and emerging economies, while Russia's rate remained the highest. Central bank responses and economic indicators Central banks globally implemented aggressive rate hikes throughout 2022-23 to combat inflation. The European Central Bank exemplified this trend, raising rates from 0 percent in January 2022 to 4.5 percent by September 2023. A coordinated shift among major central banks began in mid-2024, with the ECB, Bank of England, and Federal Reserve initiating rate cuts, with forecasts suggesting further cuts through 2025 and 2026.

This statistic shows the average inflation rate in Malaysia from 1987 to 2024, with projections up to 2030. In 2024, the average inflation rate in Malaysia amounted to about 1.83 percent compared to the previous year. Malaysia's economy is slowly recovering The inflation rate is the annual rate of increase of a price index, normally the consumer price index over time. If the same item bought today for 1 U.S. dollar is bought again one year from now, but for 1.03 U.S. dollars, then the inflation rate is at 3 percent. Generally, a low inflation rate is sought by every country, and a rate of 3 percent, as is estimated for Malaysia in the next few years, is considered low. However, there was a slight rise in Malaysia’s inflation rate, from close to 2 percent in 2010 to a little over 3 percent in 2011. In 2012, it dropped back down to its normal rate, but future estimates predict a slight increase once again. Perhaps this increase has come from initial worries concerning the country’s slowing economy as the country’s GDP growth slowed from 7.43 percent in 2010 to 5.19 percent in 2011, or its negative budget balance in relation to GDP which was at its recent worst in 2010 at -4.66 percent. At the same time, the country’s national debt was also rising, but predictions show that this trend is reversing. Yet, the economic outlook and inflation rate still appear stable for the future of Malaysia, and the inflation rate is below the global inflation rate. Furthermore, the country’s GDP continues to rise and totaled 326.93 billion U.S. dollars in 2013.

Using an exploratory approach, we observed 125 loan applications from October 2023 to February 2024 from Funding Societies, Malaysia’s largest P2P platform. We used descriptive and correlation analyses to determine the characteristics of MSMEs that use P2P platforms to obtain working capital. We found that these firms were repeat platform users, whereby only 40 MSMEs had made the 125 borrowings at an average interest rate of 13%. Most firms were from the wholesale and retail industry while account payable financing was the most popular type of working capital financing. We found that these MSMEs issued Islamic accounts payable notes at relatively high interest rates, considering the low amounts borrowed and low tenures on these Islamic notes. We found that these MSMEs were mostly 6 to 10 years old hence, few young firms used P2P lending. There was no micro-enterprise among these firms. We observed that manufacturing MSMEs outperformed those in the wholesale and retail sectors in terms of revenue, revenue growth, and average growth margin in 2020 and 2021. In the correlation analysis among 22 financial and non-financial variables, we found 23 combinations that were negatively correlated and 69 combinations that were positively correlated. These findings have varied implications among the different P2P lending stakeholders. This is the first exploratory study to give deeper insights into the features of MSMEs that use P2P online lending to obtain working capital in Malaysia.
