Good question Littleprince

@Littleprince, it takes time to build. And if the pricing is right, why not purchase a ready commercial bank? It saves time, and you can also calculate your budget. Just like why you buy a ready made house by developer instead of building your own house.

Quoting report:
Financial weekly "The Edge" quoted people familiar with the matter as reporting that at this stage, the Sarawak state government is seeking approval from Bank Negara to increase its existing shareholding, which is 4.8%, to about 30% in one fell swoop.

It is understood that Sarawak intends to nominate Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Hussan, chairman of its economic development agency, to serve as chairman of Affin Holdings.

Sources said that it is still unclear whether this will be achieved, but Bank Negara Malaysia prefers that Affin Holdings have an independent chairman.

BNM is uneasy about not having an independent chairman for transparency reason. Let's hope they can clear this stumbling block soon.

Anybody knows if there was a door gift announced for people who registered or voted?

LubeTrader

There are more pressing matters to attend to, like vote, understand the financial position and future direction of the bank than door gifts. Why is it so important? Are you a collector?

Affin is consolidating too long, there's no clear direction going up or going down.

Looking at the last 5 target price estimates, the highest is 2.25 and the lowest is 1.70: I suspect that after the dust settles from Sarawaks transaction there will be blood spilled from an over sell. Many fingers could be burned

Already mid-May still no approval for Sarawak to buy Affin. Seems like hot air from Abang Jo.

There's a 50% chance that the Sarawak proposed acquisition of Affin will be called off. Pity Abang Jo.

All IB SELL CALL? HOW ?

raymondroy

IBs give sell call as affin PER is 14x plus plus....when most banks are at about 10x PER.... or below :-) happy hunting

Affin price will not likely to dip below 2.40 because that's the minimum price LTAT selling to Sarawak.

1 month ago

aklobi

I have said this before, IBs are all calling for a SELL. The price is too hyped due to Sarawak news. Once it no longer is news but fact, the price in my opinion will dip.

There's a possibility that LTAT sale of Affin via Boustead to Sarawak will be called off due to pricing disagreement.

Sarawak's revenue is expected to hit RM16 billion this year. Every year expected to grow.
Sarawak can swallow Affin, easily.
My conviction remains. Affin will be gobbled up by Sarawak.

Maybe there will be an announcement tonight : Sarawak buys 20% of Affin from Boustead at RM2.60 per share.

Already June still Bank Negara refuses to approve a deal which is already done and dusted in December? Those LTAT personnel who agreed on the pricing to sell have all resigned back in January. The new Minister of Defense is insisting on higher price for such a sizeable block of Affin shares. The originally agreed price was at around RM2.40 (disclosed in the lastest Edge Weekly as RM2.42). I think LTAT is asking for RM2.60, just a bit more but Sarawak so stingy. So Bank Negara just put everything aside.

Abang Jo made a phone call to Bank Negara to ask why CNY come, CNY go, Raya come, Raya go, still deal for Sarawak to "take over" Affin no go? Bank Negara told Abang Jo to shut up and until today Abang Jo hasn't mentioned Affin.

“If they want to migrate to Sarawak, I say can, so I want to suggest to the Premier (Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg) as well, when we have our own bank later, those wishing to migrate to Sarawak must have minimum deposit of RM2 million in our state-owned bank, or purchase property here for no less than RM1.5 million. …This at least can generate income for our state. They can also get permanent resident status in Sarawak,” Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof said on 27 April 2024.

I would like to suggest people use ChatGPT or google and ask “What is the ownership structure of a state-owned bank?”

Maybe that explains why the regulator is taking so long to assess the (complex) application. A state takeover of a commercial bank, no ?
