Tan Sri Tay Ah Lek - Managing director and Ceo Of Public Bank Bhd
There aren’t many bankers today quite like Tan Sri Tay Ah Lek, the managing director and CEO of Public Bank Bhd (KL:PBBANK).
A pioneer staff member when Public Bank was founded in 1966, Tay has poured blood, sweat and tears into helping build the bank over the course of almost six decades together with its founder, the late Tan Sri Teh Hong Piow, who was Tay’s mentor.
Under their watch, Public Bank grew to become the country’s third-largest banking group by assets — after Malayan Banking Bhd (KL:MAYBANK) and CIMB Group Holdings Bhd (KL:CIMB) — and the second-largest listed company on Bursa Malaysia by market capitalisation.
