Public Bank PBB (1295) AGM 2025 🎁 - The prudent bank

 Empowering Sustainability


Public Bank Berhad is the third largest bank in Malaysia, following Maybank, the largest, and CIMB Bank, the second-largest. Established in 1966, Public Bank offers a wide range of financial services, including personal banking, business solutions, and investment options.

Public Bank Berhad's 2025 AGM was held at physical venue,  Shangri-La Hotel Kuala Lumpur.




Public Bank Bhd  intends to increase its dividend payout to 60% of its net profit, up from 57% in 2024. This move is still dependent on standard conditions such as regulatory approval. Since 2018, when the payout ratio stood at 47.9%, the bank has been gradually raising its dividend distribution.




Simple tea and coffee was provided to attending shareholders. However , no door gifts  and lunch packs were provided this year, which led to some shareholders expressing their dissatisfaction to the bank's management. Some of the shareholders also left early to attend RHB's AGM which was at a nearby venue also.

Nonetheless, this bank is widely regarded as one of the better-managed and more prudent institutions in the sector.
