Affin Bank is one of the anchor banks in Malaysia.
Affin Bank Berhad (AFFINBANK) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Affin Holdings Berhad which is listed on Bursa Malaysia.
It commenced operations in January 2001 following a merger between the former Perwira Affin Bank Berhad and BSN Commercial (M) Berhad in August 2000. In June 2005, it merged with the former Affin-ACF Finance Berhad. To date, it has a network of 82 branches nationwide. The Bank is constantly reviewing the geographical reach of its branches to better serve its customers. Towards this end, the Bank is on constant look-out for more strategic locations for the existing branches and to relocate if deemed appropriate.
The Bank serves both retail and corporate customers. The business units of the Bank comprise Enterprise Banking, Consumer Banking, Debt and Capital Markets and Hire Purchase. Consumer Banking provides credit cards, personal loans, mortgages and deposit taking services to individuals. Enterprise Banking offers corporations, institutional clients and SMEs services in corporate banking, contract financing and trade finance. Enterprise Banking serves as an important feeder to the other business units by way of contacts and opportunities.
Banking Without Barriers™ signifies the removal of boundaries within the processes of the Bank as well as in its attitude in servicing its customers. The latter means reaching out to the customers, improving relationships with them, making each one of them, and not just a select few, feel privileged and enhancing services to them. Simply put, AFFINBANK is embracing a new approach to banking and changing the face of conventional banking.
AFFINBANK's Islamic banking subsidiary Affin Islamic Bank Berhad (AFFINISLAMIC) commenced operations on 1st April 2006. As a full-fledged Islamic bank, AFFINISLAMIC offers a complete range of Islamic Banking products and services encompassing the areas of Enterprise and Consumer banking.
