            THE BOARD

            The Board comprised eight Directors, of whom five are Independent Non-Executive Directors (INEDs) and three Non-Independent
            Non-Executive Directors (NINED).

            The Board takes cognizance of the requirement of BNM CG in relation to the board composition with a majority of independent
            directors.
            i.   Appointment and Re-appointment of Directors

                 The Bank adheres to the BNM CG in relation to the nomination of new Directors and the renewal of tenures of existing
                 Directors upon their expiration, as authorised by BNM. All nominations and renewals of Director positions are contingent on
                 the endorsement of BNM.

                 The Board Nomination & Remuneration Committee (BNRC) has been assigned the primary duty of evaluating potential
                 candidates for new appointments or re-appointments of existing Directors. The BNRC further ensures that each
                 candidate/Director fulfills the necessary prerequisites of a Director in terms of expertise and fundamental competencies
                 and meets the standards of being fit and proper to be appointed/re-appointed as a Director in accordance with the criteria
                 outlined by BNM. Following the assessment, the BNRC will subsequently propose the appointment of the candidate
                 as a Director for approval by the Board.
                 The  Directors  have  demonstrated  exceptional  commitment  and  dedication  in  fulfilling  their  duties  and  responsibilities,
                 as evidenced  by their  attendance  record that  surpasses the  prescribed  criteria outlined in  the Charter.  Moreover,
                 the Directors have fully complied with the attendance requirements of at least 75 per cent, as per the BNM CG. The table
                 below provides the attendance record of each Director at the Board and Committee meetings held in 2024:

            ii.   Re-election of Directors

                 Clause 76 of BMMB’s Constitution provides among others, that one-third of the Directors for the time being
                 or, if their  number is not three  or a multiple  of three, then the number  nearest to one-third, shall  retire from office.
                 The Directors to retire shall be the Directors who shall have been longest in Office. A retiring Director shall be eligible for
                 re-election and shall act as a Director throughout the meeting at which he/she retires.
                 Tan Sri Tajuddin Atan, Dato’ Ibrahim Taib, and Puan Roshidah Abdullah are retiring by rotation in accordance with
                 Clause 76 of BMMB’s Constitution and have been eligible and have offered themselves for re-election.
