The internationalization of the industry is at the core of Maybank Islamic's growth strategy.

Another key focus for Maybank Islamic is emphasis on Shariah Governance and robust risk management framework. This is a continuous focus and drive in ensuring the right risk and Shariah Governance culture across the Group.

More importantly, Maybank Islamic is at the forefront of humanising financial services and the industry. True to our moral standards, we strive to positively contribute to communities we coexist with. Through financial inclusion, community work and corporate responsibility, we make it a point to serve as an example of ethical business. For 2012, our Zakat contribution stood at RM15.2 million changing the lives of countless families and making us Malaysia's single largest Zakat contributor. For 2013 and beyond, our contribution to the needy and the vulnerable will only increase, in all our markets, because we believe in humanising financial services.

Having the largest market share in almost all key segments, the largest distribution channels serving considerable market segments and a significant expansion of our customer base reflects our strength, credibility and capability as the Global Leader in Islamic Finance by 2015.
