The Malawi Stock Exchange listed FMBCH has subsidiary banks in Botswana, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The company said in Zimbabwe, business had a difficult 2019 “owing to exchange rate challenges in the market” but performed well above expectation.
While businesses in Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia “have remained profitable.”
This bank only employs Indians like Kadankat to top managerial position. Racists. They never trust an indigene Malawian. Crooks No 1.
No doubt you mean Thomas Kadandat, Yes he has been renewing his work permits for last 20 years. This bank does not trust Malawian employees. Close the bank down.
Yes you can keep on renewing. The last renewal for all expatriates was done and the immigration got a gift of one double can left hand drive VW
Why r u racist . Introspect .
The profit looks too big for our economy, are the customers not being ripped?
The profit would have been more if they had not bought an aircraft worth 1.2 million dollars and parked at Chilkha. They pay huge parking fees. Even NBM or Sb dont own aircrafts. No wonder they do not declare dividends for last four years
