I am a new shareholder of Maybank.

Reasons why I bought:

1. Potential gain from BII:

Maybank's average investment cost in BII was Rp455.

BII's share price closed yesterday at Rp1010.

If Maybank floats 17.5% of BII at a very conservative Rp600 per share, it'll make a one-off gain of RM2 billion - a gain which could be used to pay special dividend or even acquire OSK, probably with spare change left.

2. Currently under-owned by foreign investors.

3. Largest market share in domestic deposits.

4. A laggard compared to CIMB and Public Bank

Want to write more but I'm tired and need to take a bath
