BPAM had the pleasure of participating in the 46th ASEAN+3 Bond Market Forum (ABMF+3), held in Sapporo, Japan, from 6–10 July 2026.

As part of the programme, our Head of Data and Content Management, Izzad Halimi, delivered a presentation titled "Building Market Development Infrastructure for Sustainable Bonds". During his presentation, he introduced BPAM's sustainability platform, EKO, and shared its approach to sustainability classification and disclosure. He also highlighted how the platform can support greater consistency in sustainability reporting across the ASEAN+3 region.

Our participation reflects BPAM's ongoing commitment to advancing regional bond market development through collaboration, knowledge sharing and greater market connectivity. The forum was also attended by our CEO, Meor Amri Meor Ayob, and our Head of Pricing, Hew Sue Ling.

We extend our gratitude to Hokkaido University, eXtensible Business Reporting Language, and the ABMF+3 organising committee for the opportunity to be part of this meaningful forum. We look forward to continued collaboration and future initiatives that support a more integrated and resilient regional bond market.
