RHB Capital Bhd.
RHB Capital Berhad (company number 312952-H) is a Malaysian public company that served as the ultimate holding company of the RHB Banking Group, one of Malaysia’s largest fully integrated financial services groups. Its ordinary shares were listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad from 29 December 1994.
Under RHB Banking Group’s Group Corporate Restructuring Plan, RHB Bank Berhad assumed RHB Capital Berhad’s position as the group’s ultimate holding company with effect from 13 June 2016, and RHB Bank Berhad’s ordinary shares (approximately 4.01 billion shares) were admitted to the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on 28 June 2016 in place of RHB Capital Berhad’s own listing. RHB Capital Berhad has not been a listed company since that date.
Shortly beforehand, on 14 April 2016, RHB Capital Berhad completed an internal reorganisation in which it sold its remaining direct subsidiaries and joint ventures – including RHB Investment Bank Berhad and its subsidiaries and joint ventures, RHB Insurance Berhad, RHB Finexasia.Com Sdn Bhd and its subsidiary RHB OSK Stock188.Com Sdn Bhd, and other wholly owned subsidiaries – to RHB Bank Berhad for aggregate cash consideration of approximately RM3.71 billion. At an extraordinary general meeting on 24 June 2016, RHB Capital Berhad’s shareholders approved a special resolution for the company’s members’ voluntary winding-up and an ordinary resolution appointing liquidators from Ernst & Young to wind up its affairs and distribute any surplus cash to shareholders.
The registry card associated with this profile records RHB Capital Berhad’s status as “Active,” sourced from the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM); this could not be independently verified for currency against the 2016 winding-up resolution, and an active registry entry should not be read as evidence that the company continues to trade or hold assets beyond that winding-up process. No annual report has been published by RHB Capital Berhad for a financial year after 2015. RHB Capital Berhad’s registered office has historically been recorded at Level 10, Tower One, RHB Centre, Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur.

Shareholders of RHB Capital Berhad
RHB Capital Berhad’s ordinary shares were themselves listed and publicly held on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad until 28 June 2016, when RHB Bank Berhad assumed RHB Capital Berhad’s listing status as the new ultimate holding company of RHB Banking Group. RHB Capital Berhad’s shareholders subsequently approved the company’s members’ voluntary winding-up at an extraordinary general meeting on 24 June 2016. No current, independently verifiable shareholder register for RHB Capital Berhad as a distinct legal entity was located for this profile; a company in members’ voluntary winding-up does not maintain an actively traded shareholder base.
The shareholder data on file for this profile – institutional holdings in Vanguard-, DFA- and iShares-managed funds, verified as of 2 August 2026 – corresponds to the disclosed holders of RHB Bank Berhad, the Bursa Malaysia-listed successor entity, and should not be read as RHB Capital Berhad’s own shareholder base. This discrepancy is flagged here because the two are related but legally distinct companies.
Data availability
Classification: Not found, for RHB Capital Berhad specifically. Public disclosure exists for RHB Capital Berhad’s pre-2016 listed shareholder base and for RHB Bank Berhad’s current shareholders, but no source reviewed for this profile provides a current shareholder register for RHB Capital Berhad itself following its 2016 winding-up resolution.

Directors and officers of RHB Capital Berhad
RHB Capital Berhad’s shareholders approved a special resolution for the company’s members’ voluntary winding-up at an extraordinary general meeting on 24 June 2016, alongside an ordinary resolution appointing Mr Duar Tan Kiat and Ms Khoo Poh Poh, both of Ernst & Young, as liquidators. Under Malaysian company law, the appointment of liquidators in a members’ voluntary winding-up ends the powers of the board of directors, other than any powers the liquidators or members permit the board to continue exercising. No source reviewed for this profile confirms directors currently in office at RHB Capital Berhad, and no post-2016 officer filings for the company were located.
The officer data on file for this profile – records for individuals holding roles such as Group Chief Digital & Technology Officer, Group Head of Retail Banking & Asset Management and Chief Internal Auditor – describes senior executives of the wider RHB Banking Group / RHB Bank Berhad, not appointees of RHB Capital Berhad, which has had no operating business since transferring its subsidiaries to RHB Bank Berhad in April 2016. This discrepancy is flagged here because the two are related but legally distinct companies.
Data availability
Classification: Restricted. The identities of RHB Capital Berhad’s liquidators are publicly confirmed, but no current register of the company’s directors, if any remain formally in office, or its company secretary was located for this profile.

Group Structure
Group structure of RHB Capital Berhad
RHB Bank Berhad was historically a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of RHB Capital Berhad (registration no. 312952-H). Under RHB Banking Group’s Group Corporate Restructuring Plan, this relationship changed with effect from 13 June 2016: RHB Bank Berhad became the new ultimate holding company of RHB Banking Group, and its shares were admitted to the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on 28 June 2016 in place of RHB Capital Berhad’s own listing. As part of the same reorganisation, completed 14 April 2016, RHB Capital Berhad sold its remaining direct subsidiaries and joint ventures – including RHB Investment Bank Berhad and its subsidiaries and joint ventures, RHB Insurance Berhad, RHB Finexasia.Com Sdn Bhd and its subsidiary RHB OSK Stock188.Com Sdn Bhd, and other wholly owned subsidiaries – to RHB Bank Berhad for aggregate cash consideration of approximately RM3.71 billion. Following these transfers, RHB Capital Berhad’s shareholders approved the company’s members’ voluntary winding-up on 24 June 2016. RHB Capital Berhad accordingly no longer holds shares in RHB Bank Berhad or in its former subsidiaries, and no source reviewed for this profile shows it currently holding any operating subsidiary. It is not classified here as a current parent, subsidiary or sister company of RHB Bank Berhad; the relationship is historical.
