TH investments looking positive after governance revamp

Tabung Haji, Malaysia's endowment fund, reported a record-high investment income of RM4.64 billion for the 2025 financial year, according to religious affairs minister Zulkifli Hasan. The minister attributed the strong performance to the recent transformation and enhancement of the fund's governance processes. Hasan stated that the record-breaking profit demonstrates the success of both new and existing investments managed by Tabung Haji.

During a question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat, Hasan addressed concerns about diversifying the fund's new investment portfolio and strengthening its risk management framework. He emphasized that Tabung Haji employs a systematic investment process, which includes thorough assessments of investment prospects, associated risks, and shariah compliance before making any investment decisions.

The fund's strategic asset allocation is periodically reviewed every three years to ensure that its investment strategy and risk management align with current economic factors and market conditions.

The financial report also revealed that Tabung Haji's total assets reached RM98.58 billion, while liabilities amounted to RM95.63 billion. The profit distribution rate has shown a steady increase, climbing from 1.25% in 2018 to the current level of 3.50% in 2025, marking the highest rate in eight years.
