entrepreneurs, namely Hussain Najadi. Hussain operate the bank in 1975 to bring
in investments of state - Arab countries to Malaysia. After the purchase, Tan
Sri Azman was appointed as chairman.At the height of the currency crisis, he
almost lost his banking empire. Under the central bank-driven banking
consolidation programme, Azman's bank was to be swallowed by a smaller
financial group. However, Azman managed to convince the authorities to give his
group anchor bank status. In the aftermath of the financial crisis, the
Arab-Malaysian group's financial arm rebounded strongly. Its strong performance
paved the way for Azman to package a restructuring scheme to address the
group's RM1.4 billion debts.
Creditors approved the scheme in January
last year. Azman's personal debts, which in 1998 was said to be about RM600
million, has also been reduced to a more manageable level. In addition, during
the economic downturn in Asia in 1997 Tan Sri Azman has managed to survive in
the current situation compared with other banks that have been affected by the
crisis. Tan Sri Azman not only managed to maintain its position in the AmBank
Group, but he also managed to increase its share in the banking industry with a
merger with a subsidiary of MBF Finance AmBank Group, the Arab - Malaysian
Finance Berhad. Tan Sri Dato’ Azman Hashim is an entrepreneur who likes to look
and willing to accept the challenge on the way to achieve his success. In his
view, "the harder the challenge, the stronger we strive." He is the
one who does not tolerate failure and very proactive in his career.
