The Finder's Agreement is a crucial document used in Malaysian business contexts when a company or individual (the principal) seeks to engage someone to identify and introduce specific business opportunities, potential investors, or strategic partners. This document establishes the legal framework for the relationship, defining what constitutes a qualified introduction, the finder's fee structure, and the conditions under which compensation becomes payable. It's particularly important in Malaysia's dynamic business environment where cross-border transactions are common and regulatory compliance is essential. The agreement needs to comply with Malaysian law, including the Contracts Act 1950 and, where applicable, financial services regulations. It typically includes detailed provisions on confidentiality, non-circumvention, and the duration of the finder's rights to compensation.
