The RM10.4 billion payout – the highest annual since inception – benefits 11.4 million unitholders and raises cumulative distributions to RM206.7 billion. The rate offers a strong spread over the 2.29% Maybank 12-month fixed deposit benchmark.

President and group CEO Datuk Abdul Rahman Ahmad cautioned on 2026 volatility from global shifts and AI overvaluation concerns.
