JAKARTA, Indonesia, April 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ASEAN Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors reiterated their joint commitment to maintaining financial stability and advancing financial integration, against an uncertain economic outlook that could impact economic growth momentum in the ASEAN region. That was the key takeaway of the ASEAN Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting (AFMGM) hosted collaboratively by the Ministry of Finance and Bank Indonesia on 31st March 2023 in Nusa Dua, Bali. 13 high-level meetings were held with Central Bank Governors and Finance Ministers as well as Deputies. "We believe ASEAN must aim to be a region with robust, inclusive, and sustainable economic growth. Economic growth has and will always be the story of ASEAN. To ensure that this will be continuous, we must strengthen ASEAN's capacity to respond to the previous challenges, but most importantly the current and new challenges that we are all seeing today, and the expected challenges in the next twenty years. ASEAN remains a bright spot in the global economy where the region offers more promising prospects compared to a bleaker global outlook." conveyed Minister of Finance of Republic Indonesia, Sri Mulyani Indrawati. ASEAN collectively has a high economic growth and macroeconomic stability. The ASEAN-5 economies together grew by 5.3% last year, and collectively forecasted to grow by 4.6% this year and increase to 5.6% in 2024. The meeting was attended by Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors from nine ASEAN countries (Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) and representatives from six international organisations (the Asian Development Bank, ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office, International Monetary Fund, Financial Stability Board, Bank for International Settlement, World Bank). At the AFMGM, members welcomed the theme of Indonesia's ASEAN Chairmanship in 2023, 'ASEAN Matters: Epicentrum of Growth", which has three strategic thrusts: (i) recovery and rebuilding, (ii) the digital economy, and (iii) sustainability. ASEAN members underlined the importance of strong collaboration and cooperation to contain the lingering risks that may pose a threat to the regional economy, welcoming Indonesia's 2023 Priority Economic Deliverables (PEDs) including pandemic preparedness, infrastructure finance, international taxation, customs cooperation, digital financial inclusion for MSMEs and sustainable finance. The outcomes of the 1st AFMGM discussion will be reported to the 42nd ASEAN Summit in May 2023 in Labuan Bajo. A 2nd AFMGM also will be held in August 2023, in Jakarta.

CMM and PwC Malaysia aim to drive awareness of sustainability value propositions throughout the supply chain KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital Markets Malaysia ("CMM"), an affiliate of the Securities Commission Malaysia, and PwC Malaysia ("PwC"), today launched "Corporate Malaysia's Journey Towards a Sustainable Supply Chain", a report, assessing the current state of Malaysia's supply chains through a sustainability lens. The report highlights the opportunities to be gained from greater engagement of small-to-medium-sized enterprises ("SMEs"), which are typically the largest contributors to the supplier ecosystem. To date, SMEs make up the majority of suppliers for public- listed companies ("PLCs"), contributing 38% of the nation's gross domestic product ("GDP") and accounting for 48% of the national employment rate. Malaysia is at a crossroads, with mounting pressures to address sustainability considerations within supply chains as the country's major trading partners step up their focus on net zero commitments, while increasing regulatory scrutiny and consumer concerns continue to play a check and balance role. Developed against the backdrop of Corporate Malaysia's transition towards a low carbon economy, the report explores how sustainable supply chains can be a new growth lever for the nation, by improving Malaysia's attractiveness as an investment destination. The report presents three key areas that PLCs will need to consider for the adoption of greater supply chain sustainability - governance and integration, engagement and incentive, as well as data and reporting. Navina Balasingam, General Manager of CMM Navina Balasingam, General Manager of CMM said, "PLCs will need to lead by example given their capacity and exposure to international market expectations. While Malaysia's PLCs have made significant progress in incorporating ESG principles as part of their business strategy, there is still much to be done to strengthen sustainability practices within their supply chains. This report finds that of Bursa Malaysia's Top 100 companies, while 80% have ESG governance and oversight in place to develop sustainable supply chains, only 55% have incorporated supply chain risks as part of their overall corporate risks and strategy. As for the unlisted space which are predominantly made up of SMEs, the absence of a standardised lens to evaluate and measure these companies does present a challenge for corporations seeking to measure and reduce their Scope 3 emissions. With this report, we aim to provide examples of initiatives and measures that can be taken by both private and public sector actors to support sustainability within supply chains." The report features case studies of Malaysian companies that have exemplified efforts in improving their supply chain sustainability by engaging SME suppliers. These initiatives include working with suppliers to build dashboards for traceability of raw materials or emissions, driving collaborative relationships that uplift suppliers' income opportunities, and developing incentive programmes to encourage desired sustainable behaviours, amongst others. Andrew Chan, SEA Sustainability & Climate Change Leader of PwC Malaysia Andrew Chan, South East Asia's Sustainability and Climate Change Leader, PwC Malaysia commented, "As an active trading nation, Malaysia is not alone in facing hurdles around supply chain sustainability amidst the greater push globally around disclosure and uplift of supply chain practices. Considering how intricately linked companies' sustainability performance is with their supply chains, companies will need to rethink their relationship with suppliers beyond contracted transactions, to inspire suppliers to adopt sustainability practices and enhance their performance. We're also seeing a number of initiatives by the public sector to support the transition including working with SMEs to encourage adoption of low carbon practices, which is certainly encouraging. However, this will need to be backed up by investment in the right infrastructure and policies to allow Malaysian companies to truly transform their supply chains and build long term value for their stakeholders beyond helping local suppliers to meet the stringent sustainability requirements needed to participate in global supply chains." Recognising the challenging operating backdrop today, CMM is developing a Simplified ESG Disclosure Guide ("Guide") specially curated for SMEs, scheduled to launch in the fourth quarter of 2023. The Guide will provide practical guidance and the baseline disclosures expected of SMEs in relation to ESG aligned with international standards, to encourage greater transparency and improve the quality of SMEs' ESG disclosures. Navina commented, "We recognise the urgent need to enable and support the SMEs' journey by defining and paving the best path forward towards impactful change. In addition to ensuring alignment in the disclosure indicators with global disclosure frameworks, the Guide will further bring value to the overall process of enabling supply chain partners to meet their sustainability commitments."

LEIDEN, Netherlands, April 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Pharming Group N.V. ("Pharming") (Euronext Amsterdam: PHARM) (Nasdaq: PHAR) announces the first commercial shipments of Joenja® (leniolisib) to patients in the United States. Joenja®, an oral, selective PI3Kδ inhibitor, is the first and only treatment approved in the U.S. for activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) syndrome (APDS), a rare and progressive primary immunodeficiency, in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older. Under the terms of Pharming's 2019 exclusive license agreement with Novartis for leniolisib, the corresponding first commercial sale of Joenja® triggers a $10 million milestone payment by Pharming to Novartis. Stephen Toor, Chief Commercial Officer of Pharming, commented: "We are pleased to announce that the first Joenja® shipments to patients, with payor reimbursement, were delivered approximately two weeks following FDA approval, achieving an important milestone for patients suffering with APDS. We look forward to making Joenja® widely available across the U.S. as the first and only approved treatment for patients with APDS." About Activated Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase δ Syndrome (APDS) APDS is a rare primary immunodeficiency that was first characterized in 2013. APDS is caused by variants in either one of two identified genes known as PIK3CD or PIK3R1, which are vital to the development and function of immune cells in the body. Variants of these genes lead to hyperactivity of the PI3Kδ (phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta) pathway, which causes immune cells to fail to mature and function properly, leading to immunodeficiency and dysregulation.1,2,3 APDS is characterized by a variety of symptoms, including severe, recurrent sinopulmonary infections, lymphoproliferation, autoimmunity, and enteropathy.4,5 Because these symptoms can be associated with a variety of conditions, including other primary immunodeficiencies, it has been reported that people with APDS are frequently misdiagnosed and suffer a median 7-year diagnostic delay.6 As APDS is a progressive disease, this delay may lead to an accumulation of damage over time, including permanent lung damage and lymphoma.4-7 A definitive diagnosis can be made through genetic testing. APDS affects approximately 1 to 2 people per million worldwide. About Joenja® (leniolisib) Joenja® (leniolisib) is an oral small molecule phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kẟ) inhibitor approved in the US as the first and only targeted treatment of activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) syndrome (APDS) in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older. Joenja® inhibits the production of phosphatidylinositol-3-4-5-trisphosphate, which serves as an important cellular messenger and regulates a multitude of cell functions such as proliferation, differentiation, cytokine production, cell survival, angiogenesis, and metabolism. Results from a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase II/III clinical trial demonstrated clinical efficacy of Joenja® in the co-primary endpoints; demonstrating statistically significant impact on immune dysregulation and normalization of immunophenotype within these patients, and interim open label extension data has supported the safety and tolerability of long-term Joenja® administration.8 Leniolisib is currently under regulatory review by the European Medicines Agency, with plans to pursue further regulatory approvals in the UK, Canada, Australia and Japan. Leniolisib is also being evaluated in a Phase III clinical trial in children aged 4 to 11 with APDS, with a further trial planned in children aged 1 to 6 years with APDS.
