The George Town Central Business District (CBD) is the financial and political centre of the city of George Town, the capital of the Malaysian state of Penang. The financial district, which was first envisioned by the Penang Island City Council's Local Plan 2030, lies entirely within the city centre, and is home to much of the city's banking and financial services.[1] The term CBD is often used interchangeably with Downtown George Town, encompassing both the historic core and modern sections of the city centre.
