Achieving excellence in an unprecedented year - Public Mutua

By
Goh Thean Eu   
Public Mutual, the largest private unit trust company in Malaysia, is no stranger to winning awards and accolades.
However, it carries a special meaning to be able to win multiple awards during an unprecedented year – a year largely influenced by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Kuala Lumpur-based asset manager bagged four titles in the
Asia Asset Management Best of the Best 2021 Awards: Best Retail House (Malaysia), Islamic Retail House of the Year (Malaysia), Best Sukuk Manager (Malaysia), and Best Investor Education (Malaysia).
Yeoh Kim Hong, chief executive officer of Public Mutual, attributes the company’s success to its investment philosophy, which is to invest in fundamentally-strong companies throughout various economic cycles.
