Shanthi Kandiah is a lawyer since October 29,1993 currently practicing in Shanthi Kandiah Chambers, Kuala Lumpur branch, Kuala Lumpur.

Shanthi started her career at the Securities Commission in the Policy Division. She was part of the pioneer team that oversaw seminal law reform initiatives towards modernising and strengthening the Malaysian capital markets.

Among others, she participated in the major overhaul and streamlining of four key securities legislation. Key in this initiative was the removal of overlaps in jurisdiction, firmly placing the SC as the primary regulator of the securities market. This initiative also addressed amendments to Malaysian Code on Take-overs and Mergers and Issues Guidelines.

She was the principal writer/drafter of the Finance Committee Report on Corporate Governance and the 1st Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance. Both these documents served as the blueprint for corporate governance reforms.
Independently of the SC, she has co-authored country reports for the World Bank and OECD on this subject.
