Introduction‍‌‍‍‌ to Halogen Capital

One topic that almost trickled into every conversation with investors in Malaysia is regulated digital assets. Halogen Capital is the company which comes into the picture in such a discussions. There was a prevalent notion among the people in finance that accessing crypto via the regulated channels was a real challenge. The company has transformed the situation by not losing focus on compliance, structure, and trust throughout their journey.

The Beginning of Malaysia’s Digital Asset Shift

The story of Halogen Capital is a narrative full of intention. The company was willing to do everything necessary to provide a regulated exposure of digital assets for the investors. The emphasis was on licensing, governance, and long-term value instead of trends. It is this very attitude which helped the company to be clearly visible among many other players in a rapidly changing market.

The company, in 2023, made a big move by introducing the first-ever globally Shariah-compliant cryptocurrency funds. This milestone grabbed the attention of both local and international investors.

A Major Funding Milestone

Halogen Capital made a significant move by completing a RM13.3 million funding round. The major part of the investment was led by Kenanga Investment Bank Berhad. In addition, 500 Global a global venture capital firm and few other prominent investors were involved in the funding round.

After the transaction, Kenanga was the major institutional shareholder with the biggest stake of 14.9% in Halogen Capital. Most of the capital through which the deal was made came from Kenanga Private Equity Sdn Bhd. It was like a shot in the arm that gave the company the power to execute growth plans that are of a responsible nature.

Why Kenanga Chose This Partnership

The main reason for Kenanga’s involvement is the shared vision between them and the company. The bank foresees that the use of blockchain and tokenisation will revolutionize the way capital markets operate. This is why they injected money in the Halogen Capital project and not elsewhere: it is their way to combine governance and innovation.

Moreover, this joint effort goes in line with Kenanga’s wider digital agenda. Both parties, now working together, have the same objective to achieve- to make investing easy, transparent, and accessible to the new-age investors.

Real-World Asset Tokenisation Strategy

One of the priority areas is the tokenisation of Real-World Assets. With this program, Halogen Capital will be able to transform the traditional assets into digital assets by using the blockchain technology. Examples of such assets are unit trust funds, bonds, sukuk, private credit, and real estate.

Tokenisation is the step that makes fractional ownership feasible. Thus a large number of investors will be able to access investment opportunities that were only available to a few institutions. The method serves as a link between the traditional finance world and digital ‍‌‍‍‌infrastructure.

Leadership‍‌‍‍‌ Driving Long-Term Vision

Without a doubt, the company’s strong leadership continues to be the main factor that pushes the company forward. Liew Ooi Hann, Founder and CEO of Halogen Capital, was very clear that we are observing fast adoption of digital assets by institutions around the world. Currently, corporate crypto treasuries hold a value that amounts to hundreds of billions on a global scale.

Just as Malaysia confirms the same movement, demand for exposure that is regulated has increased gradually over the past few years. The company is taking the position it wants to be in with fully managed solutions to serve the demand professionally.

Strong Growth Since Launch

Halogen Capital has been able to achieve substantial growth after its launch. The area of funds under management, to a large extent, reached about RM400 million as of November 2025. The growth is a good signal of the rising investor confidence.

The Halogen Shariah Bitcoin Fund is one of the most prominent products. According to LSEG Lipper data, the fund is becoming one of the best-performing funds in Malaysia since it was launched.

Serving a Diverse Investor Base

Currently, Halogen Capital serves varied clients who are a mix of high-net-worth individuals, family offices, corporates, and institutions. The company runs eight wholesale funds and private mandates.

More than 15 partners take care of distribution. Partners include commercial banks and FIMM-approved distributors. Access that is broad yet controlled is guaranteed by this network.

What Lies Ahead

In the future, Halogen Capital wants to keep the ball rolling on product innovation and regional expansion. The tokenisation of Real-World Asset is the main reason for the future growth plan. Besides that, sustainability and compliance still remain at the top of the priority list.

The company intends to launch more offerings of institutional-grade for the modern investors as the regulations change.

In Short

Halogen Capital is not only forging digital asset funds but also building the trust of people. With the integration of regulation, innovation, and Shariah compliance, Halogen Capital is at the forefront of the digital finance revolution in ‍‌‍‍‌Malaysia.
