endeavours, we anticipate, will support us through
the expected economic growth of 5.0-5.5 per cent,
and the risk of global market uncertainty. Much of the
focus in the year ahead will be on the further
consolidation of our human capital development
initiatives so as to elevate the competencies and
competitiveness of our people in areas where we
foresee the most growth, including Islamic business,
credit financing, business development (banking and
credit insurance), as well as advisory services.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
As we close the books on 2013, I wish to express my
heartfelt thanks to the management and members
of the Board, for their unwavering support and
contributions during the year under review. On behalf
of my fellow members of the Board, I would like to
take this opportunity to express our gratitude to
the Government of Malaysia (as our shareholder
through Minister of Finance Inc. and Federal Lands
Commissioner) and Bank Negara Malaysia, for their
guidance and cooperation. The confidence of our
partners, business associates, relevant government
agencies and other stakeholders in spurring the
Bank’s performance, too are very much appreciated.
There is no doubt the journey ahead will remain
challenging. However, with the momentum that we
have built, we believe we shall continue to drive
sustainable growth. We look forward towards a more
prosperous year in 2014.
