It is heard in corporate circles that CIMB Bank of Malaysia intend to setup an Investment Bank in collaboration with the Union Bank of Colombo (UBC) and its Chairman Alex Lovell. Ultimate plan of CIMB is to create a full fledged commercial bank, Stock brokering and Investment Bank in Sri Lanka. Invitations have already been sent regarding the press conference to be held on 4th August 2011 at Taj Samudra Hotel.

CIMB Group (MYX: 1023) is the Malaysia's second largest financial services provider, and fifth largest in Southeast Asia by total assets. It is owned by CIMB Group Holdings Berhad, which is listed on Bursa Malaysia with a market capitalization of RM63.2 billion.

CIMB Group offers products and services on a dual banking basis, giving customers a choice of both conventional and Islamic solutions.

As a universal bank, it is able to serve everyone from all walks of life in Malaysia as well as throughout the region, including large regional corporations, domestic listed companies, entrepreneurial start-ups, high net worth individuals, pensioners, and children. Today, CIMB serves over eleven and a half million customers in over 1000 locations through over 37,000 staff.

At present, its main markets are Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand, countries in which CIMB Group has full universal banking capabilities. CIMB Group's presence in 13 countries covers South East Asia and major global financial centres, as well as countries with which their South East Asian customers have significant business and investment dealings.

In addition, CIMB extends its regional reach and range of products and services through strategic partnerships. Partners include the Principal Financial Group, Aviva, Sunlife Financial, Allianz Malaysia Berhad, Mapletree Capital Management, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Standard Bank, Daewoo Securities, the Kanoo Group, Malaysia Airlines, International Currency Exchange, EDS, Pos Malaysia, 7-11, Singer Malaysia, and many more.

CIMB set to make South Asian foray
By Adeline Paul Raj
Business Times
http://www.btimes.com.my/articles/cim4/Article/

CIMB will next week open a representative office in Mumbai, India, and form a partnership with the Kotak Mahindra Group, say sources

Kuala Lumpur: The country's second largest banking group, CIMB Group Holdings Bhd, is set to make its first foray into South Asia.

Sources said it will next week open a representative office in Mumbai, India, and form a working partnership with the Kotak Mahindra Group, one of the country's top banking and financial services group.

It is also expected to form an alliance with some partners in Sri Lanka to tap on the burgeoning investment banking opportunities in the island state.

Group chief executive officer Datuk Seri Nazir Razak said recently that CIMB's strategy for the India, China and Middle East regions would be to form working partnerhips with established players there, rather than acquire equity stakes.

"We're looking at working partnerships, not equity. You'll know our proposition with regard to these three markets by year-end," he told Malaysian reporters in Beijing, China, last week.

Acquisitions would be a priority for the group only in Asean, he said, referring to the grouping of 10 Southeast Asian nations which include Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia.

"We're always talking (to potential targets), but nothing material so far," he remarked.

In India, CIMB is expected to capture opportunities from flows between India and Asean. It is also likely to focus on areas like investment banking, asset management and private equity - segments in which the Kotak Mahindra Group is strong.

The Indian group's many businesses include a bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd, which has over 230 branches and manages assets worth US$11 billion (RM32 billion).

In Sri Lanka, CIMB is poised to have early mover advantage as big and prominent investment banks from the West have yet to enter the market in a big way.

The initial public offering market in Sri Lanka is "boo-ming" and merger and acquisition activities have been on the rise ever since a three-decade-long civil war ended in 2009, investment bankers say.

In China, CIMB has a presence via two representative offices in Shanghai and a 19.99 per cent stake in Bank of Yingkou Co Ltd, a mid-sized lender. It plans to convert one of the representa-tive offices into a branch.

The group is believed to be studying opportunities in the Middle East.
