OSK – will we see a profit boost?

Over the past 8 years, OSK has transformed itself from a financial services company to a property group although financial services still accounted for more than half of the net assets.

Because of this set-up, while OSK's main operation is property development, a big part of the profits still came from its investment in RHB. The Malaysian property market had been soft for many years, but there are signs of recovery. Hopefully we will then have both cylinders firing thereby boosting OSK performance.
