KUALA LUMPUR, July 6 (Bernama) -- AmBank Group (“AmBank”) and Sime Darby Property Berhad (“Sime Darby Property”) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) to offer homebuyers a new sustainable financing option for the purchase of Sime Darby Property homes. This partnership will provide a seamless customer experience within the Sime Darby Property’s home purchase journey that will now include a simplified loan application process through its holistic home ownership ecosystem, in addition to driving forward the nation’s green transformation agenda.
 
As part of its collaboration with property developers who are embarking on digital transformation and reshaping their property developments with environmentally friendly features, AmBank is pleased to offer a special rate pricing to promote these initiatives. 
 
Dato’ Sulaiman Mohd Tahir, Group Chief Executive Officer, AmBank Group said, “We have observed a growing demand for sustainability-linked financing due to the heightened awareness on combating climate change. We are pleased to work with Sime Darby Property as part of our efforts to offer our customers with green financing options as it furthers complements our goal in driving the Group’s Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) sustainability initiative.”
 
Sime Darby Property’s Group Managing Director, Dato’ Azmir Merican said that this collaboration extends the company’s digital initiatives to provide homebuyers with a convenient and complete end-to-end property buying experience.
