Overview
AFFIN Holdings Berhad (AHB) was incorporated in Malaysia on 31
May 1975 as a private limited company under the name of I.M.A Sdn
Bhd. It started off as a credit company providing hire-purchase
financing for motor vehicles. On 15 September 1978, it changed its
name to AFFIN Motor and Credit Finance (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd.
Subsequently it changed its name again to AFFIN Credit (Malaysia)
Sdn Bhd on 16 January 1979 and thereafter to AFFIN Holdings Sdn
Bhd on 2 March 1991. It was converted into a public company under
its present name on 6 May 1991. In the last decade, AHB has
changed substantially in terms of group organisation structure
through a series of mergers and acquisitions which had been
undertaken to facilitate AHB's status as the flagship financial
services subsidiary of its major shareholder, Lembaga Tabung
Angkatan Tentera (LTAT).
