Eyes on who replaces Tajuddin

Bursa Malaysia CEO Datuk Seri Tajuddin Atan said the Corporate Governance Guide would enable listed issuers improve their corporate governance practices and reporting.

PETALING JAYA: The search for a new candidate to head Bursa Malaysia Bhd, which is one of the two pillars to govern listed companies, has got off to a rather unsettling pace as tacit pressures build up to appoint certain individuals to head the exchange.

Sources said that the board have been looking at several candidates from within and outside the exchange to replace chief executive officer Datuk Seri Tajuddin Atan, who will complete his contract by end-March next year.
