International University of Malaya-Wales (IUMW) is an international joint university based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It was founded in 2012 as a partnership between the University of Malaya (UM) and the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD). IUMW offers both undergraduate and postgraduate programmes of study, and solicits both Malayan and international students. IUMW students are able to opt for dual programs of study whereby graduates of such dual programmes receive a degree from both the IUMW (in Malaysia) and the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) (in the UK); in other words, they graduate with two degrees. IUMW students can also participate in a student exchange programme which gives them the opportunity to study at UWTSD. IUMW students also have access to University of Malaya facilities and resources at no cost, which are also in Kuala Lumpur. The IUMW campus is located on land leased from Bank Negara Malaysia that BNM acquired in 2017.

Companies Commission of Malaysia

The Companies Commission of Malaysia (Malay: Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia, abbreviated SSM), is a statutory body formed under an Act of Parliament that regulates corporate and business affairs in Malaysia. The SSM was formed in 2002 under the Companies Commission of Malaysia Act 2001, assuming the functions of the Registrar of Companies and Registry of Business.The main purpose of SSM is to serve as an agency to incorporate companies and register businesses as well as to provide company and business information to the public. The commission launched SSM e-Info Services to allow information on companies and businesses obtainable via its website. As the leading authority for the improvement of corporate governance in Malaysia, the commission also handles monitoring and enforcement activities to ensure compliance with business registration and corporate legislation. In 2003, the SSM began a review of the Companies Act 1998, with the aim of simplifying the process of incorporation in Malaysia and reducing businesses' costs of compliance with Malaysian corporate law. This law was eventually replaced by Companies Act 2016, which carries some major changes such as only one director is needed to register the company as a Company Limited by Shares instead of two, heavier penalties on directors who do not comply with the Act, and Annual General Meeting (AGM) is no longer mandatory to be held by private companies.Business owners can choose to incorporate their business as a Sole Proprietorship or Partnership, incorporate their company as a Company Limited by Shares, a Company Limited by Guarantee or a Company Unlimited, or incorporate a Limited Liability Partnership.
