KUALA LUMPUR: BIMB Holdings Bhd has appointed Khairul Kamarudin (pic) as chief executive officer of its unit Bank Islam Malaysia Bhd for a three-year period effective June 14.

In a statement to the stock exchange, the Lembaga Tabung Haji subsidiary said Khairul was currently Bank Islam deputy CEO as well as chairman of two Bank Islam subsidiaries, BIMB Investment Management Bhd and Farihan Corp Sdn Bhd.
