KUALA LUMPUR, April 30 (Bernama) -- Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank) has appointed Shafiq Abdul Jabbar as group chief financial officer (CFO), effective July 7, 2025.
He succeeds former group CFO Khalijah Ismail.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the banking group said Shafiq would play a key role in supporting president and group chief executive officer Datuk Khairussaleh Ramli in driving value creation and strategic decision-making.
