ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The Bank has shown tremendous progress in the past few years, surpassing our
targets each year and winning a number of awards. Indeed, I see a very bright
future for the Bank and its employees, as we go forward on our path towards being
the preferred financial institution for Malaysian cross-border ventures.
To all the personnel of EXIM Bank, I wish to pay a sincere tribute to your belief and
hard work in implementing the transformation agenda. Each of us must realise the
value that we as individuals bring to the Bank. Reciprocally, I would also remind
you of the value that each of us derives from serving the Bank. As Malaysia’s
sole international trade finance bank, the unique and invaluable experience
gained serves as an opportunity to mould ourselves to be a truly global banker,
exposed to the legal systems and banking institutions the world over. The Bank’s
management and I remain committed to ensure that all personnel will have these
opportunities open to them, as together we take EXIM Bank to new heights.
To the Board of Directors, I thank you for the patience, trust and understanding
granted to the Management and I. To the Government and Bank Negara Malaysia,
we remain deeply appreciative of the trust they have placed on us, which we
will continuously endeavour to deserve. To our business partners, associates,
regulatory authorities and other stakeholders, I would like to record our sincere
appreciation for the spirit of collaboration and teamwork which has pervaded
our relationships, helping to elevate our performance over the years. Last but not
least, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our clients, whose continued belief
and confidence in EXIM Bank serve as the foundation of our continuous quest to
develop and improve our performance.
Aswemark another past year of accomplishments against abackdropof challenging
circumstances, I am deeply heartened to know that our transformation plan has
proven itself and continues to serve as a valuable guide to support our efforts
as we forge ahead to expand the Bank’s frontiers, extending our relevance and
significance to all our stakeholders.
In the years ahead, I foresee much to which we can look forward to. I remain
steadfast in my belief that with a shared commitment to excellence coupled with
meticulous planning, we will be able to enhance our long-term value, paving the
way towards achieving our long-term vision of being a recognised global trade
finance institution.
