AEON Credit expects its digital bank to be profitable at 4.5 years
AEON Credit Service (M) Bhd, which in April clinched one of five digital bank licences issued by Bank Negara Malaysia, expects its upcoming digital bank to start making a profit upon 4½ years of operations. “We’re looking at year four and a half to make a profit, and to recover the cumulative losses [of the first few years] in the seventh or eighth year,” chief transformation officer Ajith Jayaram tells The Edge. Bank Negara requires digital banks to break even within the first five years of operations.
