Suzaizi brings over 25 years of extensive experience in the financial markets industry, where he has held senior positions in several leading local financial institutions. His tenure at RHB, which began in 2008 as Treasurer for RHB Islamic Bank, has been marked by exceptional leadership and strategic insight. He has covered various aspects of Treasury business in the Group, being the Head of Group Funding & Liquidity Management from 2014 to 2021. His recent role as the Head of Group Sales, where he led the foreign exchange and derivatives trading and Sales team to win the accolade of “Best FX Bank” by Global Banking & Finance Awards for two consecutive years, further underscores his capabilities.

Meanwhile, Angus Salim Bin Salleh Amran, the newly-appointed Head of Sustainable Finance at Group Wholesale Banking, brings over 30 years of extensive experience in financial markets to his new role. His senior leadership positions in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, and London, coupled with his tenure at RHB since 2013, where he led the Financial Management Team and was appointed Group Treasurer in 2021, make him perfect for this role. 

As the Head of Sustainable Finance, Angus will play a crucial role in supporting the Group’s sustainable financial services. His responsibilities include developing and implementing business plans to grow the Group’s Sustainable Financial Services and focused economic sectors, exploring commercial opportunities, providing advice and support to customers on the ESG transition journey, driving product innovation, developing organisational capabilities, validating ESG financial services classification, as well as staying updated on ESG regulations and trends to ensure relevance.
