  • 1) RM29.8m for goodwill as opposed to RM10m PPE? What goodwill does this new insurance company have?
    2) “Risk: we depend on AirAsia” – High positive correlation with AirAsia is dangerous. airline business tends to be very volatile.
    3) Competition – Can this company ever compete in general insurance market in the future? Or is the growth limited to certain niche (e.g. airline etc.)

    Conclusion: Stay away until earnings become more visible.
