CEO’S MESSAGE

Politicians on Boards of PLCs

We have always maintained that it is not good governance for ‘active politicians’ to sit on Boards of PLCs.

Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), in its Corporate Governance Guidelines, states clearly that “A director of a financial institution must not be an active politician”.

BNM states that an “active politician’ refers to an individual who is a member of any national or state legislative body, or who is an office bearer of, or holds any similar office or position in a political party.
