Business as usual for Bursa CEO and team


Tajuddin: We want to invite new investors. Being able to invest and trade should not cost an arm and a leg.

KUALA LUMPUR:  It's business as usual for Bursa Malaysia Chief Executive Officer Datuk Seri Tajuddin Atan and his team in sustaining the exchange's performance for the current financial year onwards.

“My team is straightforward and remains professional. We have a very strong team and have a duty to complete our task.

“We do have a succession plan in place and we hope that both the company and the industry is stable and in good hands,” he told a media and analyst briefing after announcing Bursa Malaysia's first-half 2018 financial results here, on Monday.

The media had earlier asked Tajuddin if his position was at stake amid the new government's move to change the top management at some of the corporates, especially that his contract will end on March 31 next year.

Tajuddin declined to comment further and said that “as of now, the exchange does not have any calls or speculations in this area.”  Last week, Khazanah Nasional Bhd announced that all nine members of its Board of  Directors including Managing Director Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar had offered to resign from their posts.

The move was to facilitate a smooth and orderly transition under the new Government. - Bernama
