Our primary focus for the upcoming year is to strengthen our anti-corruption controls, complete the second and third stages of Anti-Bribery Management System (ABMS) certification, and align our policies on anti-bribery and corruption, gift, and vendor codes of ethics with global and current best practices. We strive to become the first Islamic financial institution to achieve ABMS certification. Furthermore, we plan to introduce a Conflict of Interest Policy that will provide clear principles and management guidelines for handling conflicts of interest within the bank. This policy will ensure that all employees act with the utmost transparency, fairness, and ethical standards. To expand our reach and enhance customer communication, we aim to leverage digital platforms such as Indoor Digital Media across all BIMB branches. This will enable us to share information more efficiently, improve customer experience, and boost our digital capabilities. Finally, we aim to simplify the implementation of our corruption risk assessment procedures through automation of risk documents. This will help us streamline our risk management processes, improve transparency, and enable us to identify and mitigate potential risks effectively. At BIMB, we are excited to embrace these initiatives as we continue to lead the Islamic banking industry with our unwavering commitment to integrity and excellence.
