US Market

Stocks are up by notable margins in mid-morning trading on Monday, as the markets are reacting to fresh banking regulations and another spike in merger-and-acquisition activity. The strength in the markets has lifted the major averages to their best intraday levels in a month.

The major averages have been moving sideways in recent trading, hovering near their session highs. The Dow is currently up 92.03 points or 0.9 percent at 10,554.80, the Nasdaq is up 33.98 points or 1.5 percent at 2,276.46 and the S&P 500 is up 12.59 points or 1.1 percent at 1,122.14.

The banking sector has been spearheading the day's gains after the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's new requirements for bank capital reserves were less stringent than some had expected, despite a tripling of reserve requirements.

The major averages have been moving sideways in recent trading, hovering near their session highs. The Dow is currently up 92.03 points or 0.9 percent at 10,554.80, the Nasdaq is up 33.98 points or 1.5 percent at 2,276.46 and the S&P 500 is up 12.59 points or 1.1 percent at 1,122.14.

The banking sector has been spearheading the day's gains after the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's new requirements for bank capital reserves were less stringent than some had expected, despite a tripling of reserve requirements.

The impact of the new regulations has also been lessened as most financial firms have already raised substantial reserves in the wake of the global economic crisis.

Sad or good news?

Good - This signals that   those    rich investors  might slowly   remove their money from  US and Europe and part money in the newly set up Islamic bank.

So sad, Our 3 local banks dont have that kind of attraction to catch the eyes of that kind of  multi billionaires deposting thier money here for all those years?

Islamic banking in the heart of Geylang Serai

Julie Quek

SINGAPORE

The bank did not disclose the details of the new Islamic financial products at Friday’s launch but confirmed they were in the pipeline and formed part of its strategy to grow its Islamic banking business beyond its domestic market in Malaysia.

The new Islamic banking branch in Singapore is located in the heart of Geylang Serai, home to a large base of Muslims.

It is part of Maybank’s bigger plans for its Islamic banking unit as it aims to be the leading Islamic bank in Asean.

Malaysia’s biggest lender also said it hoped that earnings from outside its home country would contribute a higher percentage to its overall profits over the next five years.

Maybank chief executive Abdul Wahid Omar said: “The idea here will be to grow our profit to make up about 40 per cent from our international operations by 2015.”

Apart from the Asean region, the bank also expects demand coming from the Middle East, China and India.

Analysts say that oil-enriched Middle Eastern investors are attracted to Asia as the outlook for the United States and Europe remain sombre.

Mr Raj Mohamad, managing director of consultancy firm Five Pillars, said: “Asia is very well-positioned now to offer what is commonly known as Syariah-compliant products, to attract these monies from the Middle East.”

With about two-thirds of the world’s Muslim population in Asia, there is a huge potential for retail Islamic banking products to grow, analysts said.— Maybank Singapore has launched the first dedicated Islamic banking branch here and plans to roll out home loans and motor insurance products that are based on Syariah principles.

Maybank eyes foreign currency deposit market

Shortly after it shook up the home loan market with mortgage rates below 1 per cent, Maybank’s Singapore unit is now launching attractive rates for its foreign currency time deposits.

For deposits of at least $10,000, it is offering interest rates of up to 5.4 per cent per year for the Australian dollar and up to 4.15 per cent for the New Zealand dollar.

The rates will be extended to both fresh funds as well as funds in existing time deposits.

Australia extended its pause in raising the cost of money, leaving the key CASHrate on hold at 4.5 per cent for the fourth month yesterday, with the central bank saying inflation was close to its target and the global outlook uncertain.
