Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said in pursuit of innovation, the Social Impact Exchange or SIX was launched today, which will be the nation's first pay-for-impact exchange designed to parallel a traditional stock exchange. He added that SIX will be the focal point for funding social purpose organisations and their intervention projects.
