PETALING JAYA: RHB Bank Bhd’s first-half financial year 2017 (FY17) results came within analysts’ expectations and it is back rebuilding the bank after the merger deal between it and AMMB Holdings Bhd failed.

However, asset quality issues and the lack of revenue growth may weigh down on the share price performance of the banking stock, said analysts.
