The practical route for most domestic groups is the <strong>Simplified Method<\/strong>: lend from internal funds in Ringgit, stay within RM50 million aggregate, and apply BNM&#8217;s published deposit rate. An interest-free loan risks the DGIR imputing interest, with surcharge exposure on the adjustment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"go-faq\">\n<summary>What about loans to or from directors?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"go-faq-a\">\n<p>Direction matters. A loan <strong>from the company to a director<\/strong> (from internal funds) falls under <strong>section 140B<\/strong> &mdash; a prescribed deemed-interest computation that is treated as arm&#8217;s length, with no de minimis. A loan <strong>from a director to the company<\/strong> stays under section 140A: the arm&#8217;s length principle applies and the director&#8217;s interest income is assessed under paragraph 4(c).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"go-faq\">\n<summary>Can our group still keep existing interest-free advances?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"go-faq-a\">\n<p>They should be reviewed rather than left alone. The DGIR may substitute or impute an arm&#8217;s length rate, adjustments carry surcharge risk, and an advance with no repayment terms may even be <strong>recharacterised as equity<\/strong> &mdash; disallowing any interest and complicating the capital position.
