S P Setia Berhad (MYX: ) is a Malaysian property, infrastructure and business company. It was founded by well-known property development figure, Liew Kee Sin. Since its inception, SP Setia Berhad has become an established property development company based in Malaysia.
On 2012, S P Setia expressed interest in bidding to acquire Battersea Power Station which is located in Battersea, London, United Kingdom. If S P Setia failed in its bid to acquire Battersea Power Station, it had planned to look for other sites in London. On June 2012, Knight Frank announced that Ernst & Young has made an exclusive agreement with S P Setia and Sime Darby to agree on the final terms of the deal after SP Setia won the bid of the Battersea Power Station against Chelsea FC.
Just like other private-turned government-linked companies in Malaysia, Liew was forced to resign when majority of the company shares were bought and controlled by the Malaysian government through its linked companies controversially. He then co-founded EcoWorld development group alongside with former colleagues who left S P Setia together with him.
