Kuala Lumpur, 30 June 2026 – PMB Investment Berhad ("PMB Investment"), a wholly Shariah-compliant Islamic fund management company under Pelaburan MARA Berhad, today announced that its PMB Shariah ESG Global Equity Fund recorded a one-year return of 34.31% for the financial year ended 30 April 2026, a significant turnaround from the previous year's -7.66%.

The Fund declared an income distribution of 0.55 sen per unit, totalling RM799,551.17 in gross distributions to corporate and retail investors. This translates to a yield of 3.84% based on the closing NAV per unit of RM0.1926 as at 30 April 2026, with the NAV adjusting to RM0.1871 post-distribution.

En Hang Tuah Amin Tajuddin, Chief Executive Officer of PMB Investment, attributed the outperformance to the firm's disciplined investment framework. "Our unitholders' trust drives everything we do, and this year's enhanced distribution reflects our commitment to sustainable long-term value. The 34.31% return demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach, which leverages the Nasdaq Dorsey Wright, a momentum-based technical analysis system to identify high-quality global Shariah-compliant companies with strong ESG characteristics. Despite market uncertainties, our disciplined portfolio and prudent risk management enabled this significant recovery."

PMB Shariah ESG Global Equity Fund, formerly known as the PMB Shariah Mid-Cap Fund, seeks to provide Malaysian investors with medium to long-term capital appreciation through a globally diversified portfolio of Shariah-compliant companies with strong ESG practices. It is suitable for investors with a high-risk tolerance seeking international equity growth.

Datuk Mohd Idzwan Izuddin Ab Rahman, Chairman of PMB Investment, reinforced the Fund's strategic importance. "The Fund continues to demonstrate PMB Investment's ability to deliver competitive long-term returns while remaining steadfast in our commitment to Shariah principles and ESG integration. Our focus remains on building lasting value through disciplined management, robust governance, and the highest standards of integrity."

Beyond investment performance, PMB Investment is exploring opportunities in the carbon credit ecosystem and other sustainability-driven initiatives as part of its long-term ESG strategy. Integrating responsible finance, environmental stewardship and social impact, the company aims to create sustainable value for investors, communities and future generations.

In line with this commitment, PMB Investment will soon launch an Autism Awareness short film to promote greater understanding and acceptance of individuals on the autism spectrum. Featuring a child with autism as one of its key talents, the initiative underscores PMB Investment's dedication to fostering a more inclusive and compassionate society.
