By AYISY YUSOF - July 14, 2017 @ 1:13am
KUALA LUMPUR: CIMB Group Holdings Bhd is not planning any merger and acquisition (M&A) in Malaysia.

Its group chief executive officer Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Aziz said the company is currently operating in 15 countries and there will be countries that can be sub-scaled.

“For Malaysia, we are very clear. We are happy with the size and scale that we operate in. I do not foresee any M&A for us in Malaysia for CIMB,” he said at a press conference after the CIMB Finance Forum 2017 on Belt and Road Initiative in Kuala Lumpur, today.

However, Zafrul said the company will definitely look at opportunities to acquire or merge with other financial institutions for its overseas operation, depending on the possibility of commercial viability.

He said CIMB sees its growth potential in the Philippines as well as Vietnam, in which it started operations last December.

“We are now finalising the opening of our second branch in Ho Chi Minh.

“Whereas in Philippines, we are now waiting for approval from the Central Bank of the Philippines,” he said.

Zafrul pointed out that CIMB will prioritise growing its core markets in Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.

On the growth of the local banking industry, he said CIMB expects good performance in the first-half this year.

“For the second-half of the year, we are very cautiously optimistic as you know Malaysia is highly an open economy,” he said, adding that Malaysia has seen a very strong GDP growth of 5.6 per cent in the first-quarter this year.

“Obviously the performance of the bank is highly dependent on the country’s performance, which has a very strong positive correlation on GDP growth,” he said.

However, he said the industry should be mindful of how the United States, China and Europe are performing.

“To that end, we think the second-half will also be at least similar growth as the first-half. Hence, 2017 should be better than 2016,” he said.

CIMB recently signed an agreement with China Galaxy Securities Co Ltd, allowing the Chinese financial institution to acquire CIMB’s 50 per cent in stock broking business.

“We are now waiting for the approvals from all the regulatory authorities because it involves many countries.

“We are excited about it. We are looking at the timeline by end of the year in November or December. We hope to get all the approvals,” he said.

Zafrul said CIMB is continuously looking at any opportunities to increase its collaboration with China companies.

“We are seeing China Galaxy as the first step towards that. We see more investments flow between China and South East Asia,” he added.

Shareholders may not know that CIMB owns Touch-n-go Sdn Bhd.

KUALA LUMPUR: Touch ‘n Go Sdn Bhd will introduce a new digital platform which will be used in the sale and purchase medium nationwide in the next six months, in line with the move to further enhance cashless transactions at the community level.

Its chief executive officer Syahrunizam Samsudin said the platform, currently called Touch ‘n Go e-Wallet, was undergoing several evaluation processes by Bank Negara Malaysia before it could be introduced to the public.

He said the name had yet to be finalised and there was a possibility that it would be changed once it was officially launched next year.

“Our vision is to introduce this cashless payment system more deeply at the community level, not just at the city centre or shopping malls, but also at retail outlets close to the community.

“God willing, in the next six months, we will be launching this platform and we will see the reaction from the users by then,” he told reporters at the Touch ‘n Go Aidilfitri Open House in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.

Syahrunizam said the pilot project for the platform was launched in Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI) here two months ago in collaboration with the resident association, along with retailers, restaurant operators and TTDI Market traders, and the respond had been positive in terms of the system’s stability and user-friendly function.

During the pilot run period, Syarunizam said all the collaborating partners enabled the use of payment of goods purchased from their premises using the platform, which could be downloaded on smartphones.

He said the launch of the platform would be done in phases in order to educate the users on how to use the platform to make purchases.

“What we want to emphasise on our corporate strategy is to increase the number of centres using Touch ‘n Go cards, with the current focus of looking at the parking business, for example, while the retail sector will kick off together with our e-Wallet platform launch,” he added.

To date, Touch ‘n Go active users stood at an average of 18.5 million a year. - Bernama

The ugly finish for the US dollar points to trouble ahead

US dollar closed on the lows



No one stepped up to but the US dollar on Friday, it closed on the lows of very close against the euro, Australian dollar and the Canadian dollar. Sterling wasn't far away.

The market -- generally -- still likes the US dollar but a close on the weekly lows is a technical signal you can't ignore. Add in the breakouts against the pound, CAD and Aussie, and you have a recipe for a brutal week ahead.

What's even worse is that there is no top-tier data on the calendar to give USD a hand; and the Fed is in the communication blackout.

China’s second-quarter gross domestic product topped forecasts with a rise of 6.9 per cent on the year, while retail sales and industrial output from the world’s second-largest economy were both strong.
The data boosted the Australian dollar given the country’s trade relationship with China, analysts said. The Aussie shot to a more than two-year high of US$0.7840, with bulls targeting the 200-week moving average around US$0.8018, before turning negative against the dollar and last trading down 0.3 per cent at US$0.7801.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The outlook for the U.S. dollar turned even more bearish on Tuesday after healthcare reform legislation again failed to pass in Congress, casting further doubt on whether the Trump administration will be able to progress to tax reform, infrastructure improvements, and banking deregulation.

The U.S. dollar index .DXY that tracks the greenback's strength against major currencies slid to an 10-month low in the wake of setback to President Trump's agenda.

And with the euro and yen both gaining on the possibility that the European Central Bank and Bank of Japan will raise interest rates later this year as their economies improve, the dollar's decline of the past five months may well continue.

"The prospects for the dollar have turned bearish for the rest of year," said Minh Trang, senior currency trader at Silicon Valley Bank in Santa Clara, California.

（吉隆坡19日讯）联昌国际集团（CIMB Group Holdings Bhd）持股94.11%的子公司泰国联昌国际（CIMB Thai Bank PCL）次季净利，按年飙涨794%至3亿5664万泰铢（约4636万令吉），因净利息收入及外汇兑汇收益增加，继而推高营运收入。

联昌国际集团今日向大马交易所报备，泰国联昌国际截至2017年6月30日止的财政年次季（2017财年次季）净赚3亿5664万泰铢，上财年同季仅录得3989万泰铢的净利。

总营运收入也从31亿7000万泰铢，扩增至32亿5000万泰铢。

总结2017财年上半年的业绩表现，泰国联昌国际的净利共计4亿7784万泰铢，同期仅净赚3亿6723万泰铢。

然而，合共两季总营运收入则萎缩至63亿8000万泰铢，相比同期的64亿9000万泰铢。

泰国联昌国际总裁兼总执行长Kittiphun Anutarasoti在一则文告中指出：“我们的上半年业绩表现尚算满意，净利增加归因于净利息赚幅走好、营运支出和拨备减少，以及营运收入相对稳定。贷款总额略微萎缩，因一般企业贷款的还款及投资组合重新调整。”

“资产质量也有所改善。我们的客户、批发个资金业务的表现良好，商业业绩在重新调整后也呈正面增长势头。我们有望在2017财年获利。”

截至中午12时30分，联昌国际涨8仙或1.26%，暂挂于6.41令吉，半日一共有400万股易手，市值达579亿3000万令吉。

KUALA LUMPUR (July 19): CIMB Group Holdings Bhd said its 94.11%-owned unit CIMB Thai Bank PCL's second quarter net profit rose 794% to THB356.64 million (about RM46.36 million) from a year earlier as operating income rose on higher net interest income and foreign exchange transaction gains.

CIMB Group told Bursa Malaysia today that CIMB Thai's THB356.64 million net profit in the second quarter ended June 30, 2017 (2QFY17) rose from THB39.89 million. Total operating income rose to THB3.25 billion from THB3.17 billion.

For 1HFY17, CIMB Group said CIMB Thai's net profit climbed to THB477.84 million from THB367.23 million a year earlier. Total operating income was however lower at THB6.38 billion versus THB6.49 billion.

CIMB Thai president and chief executive officer Kittiphun Anutarasoti said in a statement: "Our half year performance was satisfactory. Net profit improved due to better NIM (net interest margin) and lower operating expenses and provisions whilst operating income held relatively steady. Gross loans contracted slightly due to general corporate loan repayment and portfolio recalibration."

"Asset quality has also improved. Our consumer, wholesale and treasury businesses performed well and commercial has shown positive growth traction post recalibration. We are on track to turn profitable in FY2017." he said.

At Bursa Malaysia, CIMB Group shares rose eight sen or 1.26% at 12:30pm to settle at RM6.41 for a market value of RM57.93 billion. The stock saw some four million shares traded.
