• Eight-time squash world champion partners the investment platform to bring championship discipline and investor education to more Malaysians.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Moomoo Securities Malaysia Sdn Bhd. ("Moomoo Malaysia" or "Moomoo MY") today named eight-time squash world champion Datuk Nicol David as its official Brand Ambassador, in a headlining moment during the launch of MooFest 2026, the company's annual flagship investor event, running 9 to 11 October at Pavilion Bukit Jalil.

The partnership builds on Moomoo Malaysia's existing collaboration with the Nicol David Organisation (NDO), the non-profit foundation Datuk Nicol David co-founded with Mariana De Reyes to empower women, girls and boys through sport, education, mental health and community advancement. Earlier this year, Moomoo Malaysia committed RM100,000 to support NDO's work with underserved students in Kuala Lumpur and Penang.

"We share a simple belief with NDO: young people need knowledge, confidence and opportunities to build a better future," said Dennis Jee, CEO of Moomoo Malaysia. "Datuk stands for strong values we believe in: care, preparation, staying strong through challenges, and always improving. Despite all her success, she continues to give back and help the next generation. That's why I'm proud that Datuk is now also Moomoo Malaysia's Brand Ambassador."

"The money goes into classrooms, not campaigns," said Datuk Nicol David, on why she said yes. "You don't become a champion in one day. You learn the fundamentals, you make mistakes, you keep practising, and you learn from the people around you. Over time, you build the confidence to take on something bigger."

As Brand Ambassador, Datuk Nicol will front Moomoo Malaysia's campaigns and appear across its platforms and events, bringing the same discipline and long-term thinking that defined her career on the court to how Moomoo Malaysia talks about investing. Fans in the North can look forward to seeing more of Datuk Nicol later this month, when Moomoo Malaysia opens its fourth physical store in Penang and marks the occasion with an opportunity to play pickleball with her. Details will be announced at a later date.

The announcement anchored the opening of MooFest 2026, which runs through the weekend under the theme "The Age of Smarter Investing" at Centre Court, Pavilion Bukit Jalil. Beyond the Main Stage's market panels, attendees can look forward to a closing KOL panel featuring Timothy Tiah, Jonathan Quek and Nigel Chong, sharing real-world lessons on how they utilise Moomoo AI in their own investing journeys, and a Post-Budget & Year-End Playbook session breaking down what Budget 2027 means for investors. MooFest 2026 continues until 11 October 2026 with hands-on workshops, informative presentations and exclusive event-only rewards.
