rationale
True to its tradition, the Songket commands value
and stature in Malaysian society. It is the symbol of
beauty, decorum and formality. The process involved
in the weaving of Songket demands perseverance,
discipline and commitment. Much like the business of
the AmanahRaya Group of Companies which requires
an intricate weave of interpersonal relationships and
professional stewardship of capital and assets. True
to the spirit of the Songket which combines a
foundation and network of value, AmanahRaya also
aspires to create lasting products of lasting value for
our customers and shareholders.
Each piece of Songket is exclusively designed with
intricate geometric patterns. This is synonymous with
the AmanahRaya approach to designing products
for its valuable customers, as it believes that each
individual’s needs are exclusive and highly personal.
Thus, it is only fitting that the Songket was chosen to
grace the cover for the AmanahRaya Annual Report
2006.

about songket
Songket is a handwoven textile using a traditional
loom called 'keh'. The use of gold threads to make
up beautiful motifs and patterns involves the
process of 'menyungkit', a Malay word in which the
warp threads are lifted to insert the gold colored
thread to make up the motifs. The weaving is
painstaking for it involves an intricate and
complicated process of simultaneously interlacing
vertically stretched parallel gold threads at right
angles with horizontally stretched parallel silk
threads.

chairman’s statement
EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE
I am delighted to report that AmanahRaya Group has generated another excellent performance
for the second consecutive year. The Group reported a 77% increase in total revenue to
RM109.87 million, from RM62.17 million in 2005. The strong revenue growth was translated to a
116% rise in its profit before tax to RM41.18 million, compared to RM 19.02 million in 2005.
DIVERSIFYING BUSINESS OPERATION
The Group’s business diversification strategy in 2006 has witnessed its operation spreading
beyond its traditional activities of estate administration, trust operation and wills services, to
include asset management, personal financing, offshore operations and property management.
Notwithstanding, the activities of trust operation, estate administration and wills services at
ARB continued to garner stronger footing. The trust business at ARB has grown exceptionally
well with the size of its trust fund, the Common Fund, expanding 54% to reach RM 5.28 billion as
at the end of 2006. ARB has made further inroads in corporate trusteeship with the Net Asset
Value (NAV) of all the trust funds under its trusteeship growing to RM 77.56 billion as compared
to RM 65.59 billion in 2005. In addition, the trust operation and estate administration was
further boosted with the opening of ARB Service Centre to enhance customer services and to
provide a one-stop centre for all ARB products and services. ARB has also positioned itself as
front-runner in the provision of wills services with the strategy of collaborating with strategic
partners to raise awareness and increase the number of wills registered at ARB.
The Group’s financial services activities have progressed strongly during the year. As the fund
manager of the Common Fund, Amanah Raya-JMF Asset Management Sdn Bhd has aggressively
acquired investment opportunities and managed to launch AmanahRaya-Real Estate Investment
Trust (ARREITs) during the year. Amanah Raya Capital Sdn Bhd has also enlarged its range of
financial products to include two Islamic credit option schemes, namely, Bay Al Inah and Bay Ad
Dayn. The Group has successfully launched its first two unit trust funds, AmanahRaya Unit Trust
Fund and AmanahRaya Syariah Trust Fund through AmanahRaya Unit Trust Management Sdn Bhd.
The Group’s offshore operation was boosted by the strong performance of our trustee subsidiary,
Amanah Raya Labuan Ltd., and the granting of licenses to operate AmanahRaya Investment Bank
Ltd and AmanahRaya Asset Management Ltd in Labuan. The Group’s involvement in the property
sector via ARB Hartanah Sdn Bhd has also expanded with the acquisition of mandates for project
management and property development.
DIVIDEND
The Board is recommending a final dividend of 20% for the financial year ended 31 December
2006, subject to the members’ approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.
PROSPECTS
AmanahRaya Group is confident of a better year in 2007 for the Malaysian economy and the
financial services sector in general. In view of the anticipated improved outlook, the Group has
devised business strategies to acquire opportunities to sustain its performance growth. An
internal restructuring of its business operation was recently undertaken to ensure its activities
p.14
Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report
chairman’s statement
chairman’s statement
are more focused and ready to endure future competitive environment. The restructuring
entailed the clustering of subsidiaries concentrating on the provision of legacy services,
trusteeship services, property development and capital market products and services.
AmanahRaya Legacy Services Sdn Bhd will commence operation in 2007 with the objective of
providing comprehensive legacy management services comprising wills writing, custodianship
and execution. As the trustee for major trust funds in the country, ARB’s presence in the
corporate trusteeship sector has long been renowned and this position is to be enhanced with
the setting-up of a dedicated trustee arm, AmanahRaya Trustees Bhd in 2007.
The granting of licenses to operate an investment bank and asset management company out of
Labuan is opening further opportunities for the Group to expand its range of financial services and
entrench ARB’s involvement in the capital market.
AmanahRaya Group recognizes the importance of continuously improving its customer services.
Further to the establishment of ARB Service Centre, a Care Unit was established to cater for
estate and trust beneficiaries with special needs. The Group has also incorporated an Integrity
Unit in line with the National Integrity Plan (NIP) launched by the Government and the
comprehensive plans as stipulated in the Amanah Raya Integrity Plan (ARIP).
I am also proud to inform that ARB has successfully received the renewal of its ISO 9001:2000
certification for its business processes. Our asset management company, AmanahRaya – JMF
Asset Management Sdn Bhd (“AR-JMF”) was also accredited with ISO 9001:2000 and the United
Kingdom Accreditation Service (“UKAS”) certification in July 2006.
OUR GRATITUDE
I would like to record my gratitude and appreciation to the Board of Directors, the management
and staff of the AmanahRaya Group who have contributed to the strong performance of the
Group. I take pride in their display of high commitment and professionalism to achieve our
mission and vision. My fellow members of the Board have always been supportive and
continuously providing invaluable insights to steer our Group towards achieving its objectives.
I would like to record my appreciation to the out-going members of the Board, Datuk Mohamed
Bazain Hj Idris, Dato’ Mahadi bin Hj Ibrahim and Hj Ahmad Kamal Abdullah Al-Yafii, and welcome
Dato Abdullah Sani bin Ab Hamid, Puan Azailiza Mohd Ahad and Puan Sharifah Adlina Syed
Abdullah as the new members of the Board of Directors of ARB. I would also like to take this
opportunity to extend my appreciation to the members of the Board of Directors of all the
subsidiaries of Amanah Raya Berhad.
I would also like to extend my gratitude to the Prime Minister’s Department, being our
Ministry-in-charge, our shareholders, Minister of Finance (Incorporated) and Federal Lands
Commissioner, our customers, business partners, financial institutions and regulatory bodies for
their unwavering support and we look forward to their continuous support in the coming years.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW
During operations of the year, AmanahRaya Group has managed to display strong overall
performance in estate and trust administration, legacy services, asset management,
consumer financing, financial services and property management. The Group’s business
diversification and expansion strategy has contributed positively to the outstanding
performance.
Our asset management arm, AmanahRaya-JMF Asset Management Sdn Bhd has contributed
significantly to the Group’s earnings with pre-tax profits of RM4.76 million in 2006.
AmanahRaya-JMF is continuously seeking new investment avenues and generating
innovative products and services to cater to the demanding market. Towards this
objective, it has undertaken various efforts including the conception of the AmanahRaya
Real Estate Investment Trust (ARREITs), Islamic Financial Option and various collective
investment schemes.
The Group has seen favorable returns from its involvement in the offshore capital market
with its subsidiary, AmanahRaya Labuan Ltd securing a number of trusteeship mandates
and reported pre-tax profits of RM4.70 million. We are also pleased with the performance
of our consumer financing subsidiary, AmanahRaya Capital Sdn Bhd, which registered its
first full-year profits of RM3.82 million. In a move towards becoming a more established
financing house, AmanahRaya Capital has undertaken efforts to enhance its operational
efficiencies to ensure superior processing and delivery standards.
AmanahRaya’s foray in the property sector has also displayed encouraging results with its
subsidiary, AmanahRaya Development Sdn Bhd (formerly known as ARB Hartanah Sdn Bhd),
reporting stronger profits of RM3.68 million arising from building management fees and
the securing of new mandates for property development ventures.
The strong performance of the AmanahRaya Group has generated a respectable set of key
performance indicators with huge improvements on its earnings per share (EPS), net
tangible assets (NTA), and Return on Shareholders’ Fund.

BUSINESS OPERATIONS REVIEW
During the year, the Groups’ corporate strategy has been one of incorporating both operational
performance enhancement measures as well as initiatives that create new business prospects.
The Group is continuously seeking opportunities that enhance shareholder value and towards
becoming a stronger and more resilient financial services group.
TRUST AND ESTATE ADMINISTRATION
ARB took pride in establishing the ARB Service Centre, a one-stop centre to enhance customer
service excellence philosophy. Our goal is to provide easy access for our customers to reach our
specialized services. The centre is located right in the heart of the city at No 2, Jalan Ampang,
well within walking distance from the city’s light rail system. The centre is fully equipped with
capable staff and a powerful Information System that translates to faster service, access to
critical customer information and efficient implementation. A dedicated Private Trust Unit was
also created during the year to provide personalized services on Trust and Estate Administration
matters for high-nett worth clients and also for clients that require integrated services for trust
and legacy services.
As at 31st December, 2006, there were 51,734 active trust accounts valued at RM5.25 billion
under the administration of ARB. In addition, there were 21,773 active estate administration
cases as at the end of 2006. The Trust and Estate Administration operation received a further
boost of confidence when ARB received a renewal of it Quality Management System (ISO
9001:2000) accreditation in May 2006.
In a move to enhance delivery in the provision of legacy services, a Probate Management
Department was established to undertake the functions of wills writing, registration,
custodianship and execution. The year 2006 alone saw ARB aggressively marketing its wills
services via house promotions and marketing alliances with strategic partners, which brought a
huge rise in the number of wills registered at ARB. As at the end of 2006, ARB has managed to
register a cumulative total wills of 15,015 cases compared to only 5,136 wills at the beginning of
the year.
CORPORATE TRUSTEESHIP
During the year, the Group managed to expand further its corporate trusteeship business with
the number of trust funds under ARB’s trusteeship increasing to 96 funds compared to 76 funds
in 2005. The net asset value (NAV) of total funds under ARB’s trusteeship amounted to more than
RM72 billion, representing 67% market share of total trust funds in the country. The Group has
aggressively participated in the bond market and managed to secure trusteeship for 30 bonds
valued at more than RM27 billion, compared to 16 bonds (valued at RM21.52 billion) in 2005.
CAPITAL MARKETS AND FINANCIAL SERVICES
The year 2006 marked a landmark year for the Group in terms of progressing in the capital
markets and financial services sector. As at 31st December 2006, the Common Fund (Kumpulan
Wang Bersama) of ARB grew substantially from RM3.43 billion in 2005 to RM5.28 billion in 2006.
This fund, which is managed by AmanahRaya – JMF, is the main trust fund of ARB. The intrinsic
value of the Common Fund was further enhanced after the capital appreciation of its property
investments in the AmanahRaya REITs in February 2006.
p.18
Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report
managing director’s statement
performance highlights in 2006
The capital market division contributed strongly to the Group’s earnings during the year.
AmanahRaya-JMF had its full-year of operation under the AmanahRaya umbrella and contributed
substantially to the Group’s profitability. During the year, AmanahRaya-JMF teamed up with third
party financial advisors to launch AmanahRaya REITs, the first real estate investment trust
launched by a Government-owned company. There is a need for ARB as a new entrant to propel
itself towards becoming a significant capital market player by continuously introducing
competitive and innovative products and services. As such, AmanahRaya-JMF and Hong Leong
Bank Bhd is also collaborating on the first Islamic Financial Portfolio Obligations (IFPO), due for
launch in 2007.
Another feather in the cap for the Group’s involvement in the financial services industry was the
incorporation of the AmanahRaya Unit Trust Management Sdn Bhd. The company launched its
first two unit trust funds with a total approved fund size of RM1.0 billion in September 2006. In
the financial market place, these unit trusts have the competitive edge of having the majority
of its investments in financial instruments with guaranteed capital and consistent returns.
AmanahRaya Capital, which commenced its full operation during the year by offering Islamic
consumer financing, saw its total asset portfolio grow substantially to RM 66.38 million at the
end of 2006. The subsidiary registered pre-tax profits of RM3.82 million in 2006 and is extending
its financial products to ARB’s existing trust clients and estate beneficiaries.
Our property subsidiary, AmanahRaya Development Sdn Bhd, reported favorable results with
pre-tax profits of RM3.68 million. The company continued making inroads in project
management and managed to secure contracts for joint-venture development projects with
established property companies.
Amanah Raya Labuan Ltd reported a turnaround performance in 2006 with pre-tax profit of
RM4.70 million. The company generated its revenue from trustee fees of the Common Fund’s
foreign investment and a growing number of private companies with offshore investment.
Amanah Raya Nominees Sdn Bhd managed to increase its pre-tax profits from RM0.87 million to
RM1.29 million in 2006 despite competition from foreign bank-backed trustee companies.
Towards the end of 2006, AmanahRaya’s foray in the capital market was further boosted when it
received the approval from LOFSA to undertake investment banking and asset management
operations in Labuan. The offshore operation is being undertaken by new subsidiaries, namely,
AmanahRaya Investment Bank Ltd and AmanahRaya Asset Management Ltd. Its maiden activities
have received an encouraging start when the Group secured initial mandates on offshore
investment from Morgan Stanley and Faisal Private Bank of Switzerland.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
Market development activities during the year focused on sustaining an awareness program of
ARB’s products and services. This program included focused promotional activities on wills
services and wider media coverage of the Group’s capital market activities. The Year 2006
signified ARB’s commitment to increase mass awareness on the importance of will writing.
Aggressive programs and promotional activities were organized in key market sectors, with
competitive pricing strategies and also strategic alliances with established service providers
such as Hong Leong Islamic Bank Bhd, Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd and Wasiyyah – Shoppe Sdn
Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report

Bhd. As a measure of our commitment toward the development of the wills and estate
administration sector, we initiated and took the lead towards the formation of the Malaysian
Legacy Management Association, PERWARIS which was established in March 2006 to serve as a
reference body for all practitioners in Malaysia.
Throughout 2006, the AmanahRaya Group celebrated it’s 85th anniversary as the Public Trustee
of Malaysia with various events and programs. The Group launched AmanahRaya’s Corporate
Batik and Tepak Sireh icon in June. The Corporate Batik was adopted as the corporate attire for
the AmanahRaya Group to clearly define and signify our corporate identity as a true blue
Malaysian entity with a strong sense of our heritage. The Tepak Sireh was chosen as an icon for
AmanahRaya to symbolize the continuity of a proud tradition which has evolved into a legacy.
To commemorate the evolution and inception of Amanah Raya Berhad from it’s role as the Public
Trustee, a special corporate logo of an abstract hibiscus, the national flower of Malaysia was
created. The Group marked the Anniversary Celebration with a grand dinner and the publication
of the AmanahRaya Souvenir Book in August 2006. The event was graced and officiated by His
Majesty Seri Paduka Baginda Yang DiPertuan Agong, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin ibni Al-Marhum
Tuanku Syed Putra Jamalullai. The occasion also commemorated the official relocation of ARB’s
headquarters from Jalan Damansara, Kuala Lumpur to Wisma AmanahRaya, Jalan Ampang.
ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
As a Government-owned company, it is one of ARB’s objectives to elevate its corporate social
responsibility to a higher level. During the year, the Group has allocated more than RM1.0
million for various charity programs which included distribution of school bags to
underprivileged children, donations to flood victims and contributions to social and charity
events. As a caring corporate entity, the Group has also established a dedicated Care Unit in
September 2006 to ensure the welfare and social development of its minor beneficiaries and
physically-challenged clients are well-taken care.
Quality Management is another aspect of the Group’s focus for the coming years. Sharing the
holding company’s vision, Amanah Raya-JMF was also awarded quality certification from both
SIRIM and UKAS during the year. It is anticipated that all the subsidiaries of the Group will be
accredited with ISO certification to ensure its work processes are of superior standards.
In line with the Government’s call for corporations to adopt the National Integrity Plan (NIP),
AmanahRaya Group has initiated a positive move to instill the NIP into the work place by being
the first private entity to introduce a comprehensive integrity plan namely AmanahRaya
Integrity Plan (“ARIP”), which was officially launched in April 2006. An Integrity Unit was
specifically set up to create awareness and outline appropriate code of business ethics and
practices to be observed by the Group.
HUMAN CAPITAL
As the AmanahRaya Group is widening its current business operations and expanding into new
business territories, there is the need for the Group to continuously build its human capital to
ensure the resources are more resilient and competitive. During the year, the Group
implemented a new and competitive remuneration scheme to all ARB employees. The Group has
seen its staff strength grow by 29% to 546 staff from only 423 staff in 2005. The Group has also
p.20
Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report
managing director’s statement
performance highlights in 2006
raised expenditure on staff training, which encompasses in-house and external seminars, courses
and conferences, executive education and attachments with established industry players.
In support of the Government’s initiatives to reduce unemployment, the Group has taken its
corporate social responsibility to a higher level by providing job training and attachments to
local graduates. To reinforce AmanahRaya’s commitment into building knowledgeable future
leaders, the Group has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with 3 local universities to
offer Internship Programs for their graduates.
The welfare of the staff has always been one of the priorities of the AmanahRaya Group. During
the year, the staff enjoyed their Family Day in Pulau Langkawi, whilst the Sports Club also
organized various activities among the staff and sports competition with participation from
other companies and Government Departments. Towards the end of 2006, Koperasi Amanah Raya
Berhad was incorporated to provide opportunities for staff members to participate in potentially
good business ventures.
PROSPECTS
On behalf of the management team and the staff of ARB, we wish to inform our shareholders
that the prospects for the Group are very promising in the near to medium term. The
commitment shown thus far will be further intensified and focused towards strengthening our
existing businesses and monitoring new activities to ensure continuous good returns. We will still
continue to exercise prudence and care in our stewardship of the capital and assets entrusted to us.
In order to sustain the momentum of growth and to transform ARB into a resilient financial
services group, the company has taken the initial steps of restructuring its business operations.
ARB, the company will be the holding company engaged in the core activities of Trust and Estate
Administration whilst providing strategic support services to all the subsidiaries within their
areas of expertise. The subsidiaries of ARB are strategic business units, which are grouped under
four major divisions as described below.
Capital Markets And Financial Services
– provision of products and services related to capital market such as asset management,
investment banking, unit trust operation, retail financing
Trustee Services
– provision of corporate trusteeship services, custodial, nominee services for local
and offshore market
Legacy Services
– provision of comprehensive legacy services including wills writing, registration,
custodial and execution
Property Services
– focusing on property management, project management and property development
The Capital Markets And Financial Services is expected to be at the forefront of all activities in
2007 with the listing of AmanahRaya REITs in February 2007. The Division is spearheading the
AmanahRaya Group into building the foundation to enhance its position as a capital market
player by introducing innovative investment instruments and collective investment schemes. The
Group is also expected to launch new products and services for offshore markets in relation to
Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report
p.21
managing director’s statement
performance highlights in 2006
treasury, corporate finance and advisory, investment banking and asset management when our
investment bank commences its operations in 2007.
The business of corporate trusteeship is expected to expand further in positioning ARB as a
full-fledged investment services provider. The year 2007 will see the concentration of all the
activities of corporate trusteeship and nominee services for local and offshore markets under a
dedicated subsidiary, AmanahRaya Trustees Bhd. The focus of the new subsidiary is to ensure
smoother delivery and efficient data management. The company is also expected to work
closely with established global market players to gain from the transfer of technology and
expertise in the global environment.
In sustaining ARB’s position as the premier trustee company, the year 2007 will carry the ‘Trust
Year’ theme whereby the company will launch new trust products namely Amanah Premier Trust
Deposits and Amanah Savings Trust. These products are additional trust accounts with different
features than the existing ARB Trust Account to cater to the different needs of the market.
ARB’s commitment towards the organized development of wills is to be further boosted when
the Malaysian Wills Registry (‘DaftarWasiat Malaysia’) is to be launched in June 2007, in a move
to register all wills in the country.
The Group’s commitment to the objectives of its Quality Management System (ISO 9001: 2000) is
expected to see subsequent enhancements on its operational and financial processes. The move
would also incorporate process technology enhancements for its operations with the expected
commissioning of ARB’s Trust and Estate Information Management System (TIMS) in 2007. The
Group is also upgrading and expanding its process technology for an integrated accounting,
trustee services and legacy management. In line with the corporate objective of inculcating the
culture of customers service excellence, the year will also see the Group embarking on
extensive customer service initiatives and improvement programs.
The Group’s drive for knowledge enhancement of its human capital will see a substantial budget
allocated for training and development programs. The investment in human capital
enhancement program will include intensive training and skill-enhancement exposures via
courses, seminars and attachment programs, continuing education programs and the formulation
of an expertise program in Trust and Estate Administration with a local educational institution.
We are looking forward to an enriching and successful year in 2007 for the AmanahRaya Group
and I am confident that the Group is well-positioned to achieve its objectives. I take this
opportunity to thank the Government of Malaysia and the Malaysian public, including the private
sector, for their continuous support to the AmanahRaya Group.
Lastly, on behalf of the management and staff, I would like to thank the Board of Directors for
the guidance and advice that they have provided thus far.

the long term interests, not only of the shareholders, but also of employees, customers, and

STATUTORY INFORMATION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Before the income statements and balance sheets were made out, the Directors took reasonable
steps:
(a) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and
the making of allowance for doubtful debts and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had
been written off and that adequate allowance had been made for doubtful debts; and
(b) to ensure that any current assets, other than debts, which were unlikely to realise in the
ordinary course of business their values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and
Company have been written down to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.
At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances:
(a) which would render the amounts written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for
doubtful debts in the financial statements of the Group and Company inadequate to any
substantial extent; or
(b) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the
Group and Company misleading; or
(c) which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or
liabilities of the Group and Company misleading or inappropriate.
No contingent or other liability has become enforceable or is likely to become enforceable within
the period of twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the
Directors, will or may substantially affect the ability of the Group and Company to meet its
obligations when they fall due.
At the date of this report, there does not exist:
(a) any charge on the assets of the Group and Company which has arisen since the end of the
financial year which secures the liability of any other person; or
(b) any contingent liability of the Group and Company which has arisen since the end of the
financial year.

directors’ report (continued)
At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances not otherwise dealt
with in this report or the financial statements which would render any amount stated in the
financial statements misleading.
In the opinion of the Directors:
(a) the results of the operations of the Group and Company during the financial year were not
substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature; and
(b) there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this
report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely to affect
substantially the results of the operations of the Group and Company for the financial year in
which this report is made.

report of the auditors
TO THE MEMBERS OF AMANAH RAYA BERHAD
We have audited the financial statements set out on pages 45 to 91. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's Directors. It is our responsibility to form an independent
opinion, based on our audit, on these financial statements and to report our opinion to you, as a
body, in accordance with Section 174 of the Companies Act, 1965 and for no other purpose. We
do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this report.
We conducted our audit in accordance with approved auditing standards in Malaysia. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosure in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by Directors, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion:
(a) the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the
Companies Act, 1965, and the MASB Approved Accounting Standards in Malaysia for Entities Other
Than Private Entities so as to give a true and fair view of:
(i) the matters required by Section 169 of the Companies Act, 1965 to be
dealt with in the financial statements; and
(ii) the state of affairs of the Group and Company as at 31 December 2006
and of the results and cash flows of the Group and Company for the financial
year ended on that date;
and
(b) the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to be kept by the
Company and by the subsidiaries of which we have acted as auditors have been properly kept in
accordance with the provisions of the Act.
The names of the subsidiaries of which we have not acted as auditors are indicated in Note 13 to
the financial statements. We have considered the financial statements of these subsidiaries and
the auditors’ reports thereon.
We are satisfied that the financial statements of the subsidiaries that have been consolidated
with the Company's financial statements are in form and content appropriate and proper for the
purposes of the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and we have received
satisfactory information and explanations required by us for those purposes.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The principal activities of the Company consist of administrating estates of deceased persons,
acting as trustee for minors, public and unit trust schemes, and the management of trust funds.
The principal activities of the subsidiaries are set out in Note 13 to the financial statements.
The number of employees at year end were 546 (2005: 423) employees in the Group and 446
(2005: 377) employees in the Company respectively.
The Company is a public limited liability company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia, and
not listed on Bursa Malaysia Berhad.
The address of the registered office of the Company is Tingkat 15, Wisma AmanahRaya, No. 2,
Jalan Ampang, 50450 Kuala Lumpur.
2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including interest rate risk, market
risk, liquidity and cash flow risk. The Group’s overall financial risk management objective is to
ensure that the Group creates value for its shareholders. The Group focuses on the
unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on financial
performance of the Group. Financial risk management is carried out through risk reviews,
internal control systems and adherence to Group’s financial risk management policies. The Board
regularly reviews these risks and approves the treasury policies, which covers the management of
these risks.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk refers to risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to
changes in market interest rates. The Group is not exposed to any significant interest rate risk as
the majority of the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are non-interest sensitive, except
for the fixed income investments and deposits which are placed with licensed banks at market
interest rates.
Market risk
Market risk is defined as risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of
changes in market prices, whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual
security of its issuer or factors affecting all securities traded in the market. Market risk exposure
arises from investments in quoted shares as the value of the investments will fluctuate as a result
of changes in equity market prices.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Credit risk
Credit and counterparty risk is defined as the possibility of losses due to an unexpected default or
due to a deterioration of the counterparty’s credit-worthiness. The Group manages its credit
risks by placing its deposits with major financial institutions in Malaysia with good financial
standing and by requiring guarantors for staff loans.
Liquidity and cash flow risk
Liquidity and cash flow risk relates to risk that an enterprise will encounter difficulty in raising
funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. Prudent liquidity risk
management implies maintaining marketable securities and sufficient cash for operation and
ability to close our market positions. The Group aims at mitigating liquidity risk by adopting a
prudent policy in accepting funds and maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping the cash in the
short term money market and marketable securities.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items that are
considered material in relation to the financial statements. These policies have been
consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements of the Group and the Company have been prepared in accordance with
the Financial Reporting Standards, the MASB Approved Accounting Standards in Malaysia for
Entities Other Than Private Entities and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965. The financial
statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except as disclosed in the
summary of significant accounting policies.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MASB Approved Accounting Standards
in Malaysia for Entities Other Than Private Entities requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. It also requires Directors
to exercise their judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Although
these estimates and judgment are based on Directors’ best knowledge of current events and
actions, actual results may differ.
Trust assets held in the name of the Company and its predecessor organisation are not included in
these financial statements. The activities and assets of the various unit trusts and other funds in
which the Company is the trustee are not included in these financial statements as they are
separate entities.

for the Group and the Company’s financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2007 or later
periods, but which the Group and the Company has not early adopted, are as follows:
• FRS 117 Leases (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 October 2006).
This standard requires the classification of leasehold land as prepaid lease payments. The
Group and the Company will apply this standard from financial periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2007.
• FRS 124 Related Party Disclosures (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1
October 2006). This standard will affect the identification of related parties and some
other related party disclosures. The Group and the Company will apply this standard from
financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2007.

(ii) Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards
that are not yet effective (continued)
• FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (effective date yet to be
determined by Malaysian Accounting Standards Board). This new standard establishes
principles for recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some
contracts to buy and sell non-financial items. Hedge accounting is permitted only under
strict circumstances. The Group and the Company will apply this standard when effective.
(b) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are those corporations, partnerships or other entities (including special purpose
entities) in which the Group has the power to exercise control over the financial and operating
policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities, generally accompanying a shareholding of
more than half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are
currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls
another entity.
Investment in subsidiaries are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where there is
an indication of impairment, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed. A write down is
made if the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all its
subsidiaries made up to the end of the financial year.
Subsidiaries are consolidated using the purchase method of accounting.
Under the purchase method of accounting, the results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of
during the year are included from the date of acquisition up to the date of disposal. The cost of
an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and
liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the
acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a
business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date,
irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the
fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired at the date of acquisition is
reflected as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the
subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(b) Subsidiaries (continued)
Minority interest represents that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of a subsidiary
attributable to equity interests that are not owned, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, by
the parent. It is measured at the minorities’ share of the fair value of the subsidiaries’
identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date and the minorities’ share of changes in
the subsidiaries’ equity since that date.
All material transactions, balances and unrealised gains between group companies are eliminated
and the consolidated financial statements reflect external transactions only. Where necessary,
accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed to ensure consistency with the policies
adopted by the Group.
The gain or loss on disposal of a subsidiary is the difference between net disposal proceeds and
the Group’s share of its net assets as of the date of disposal including the cumulative amount of
any exchange differences that relate to the subsidiary is recognised in the consolidated income
statement.
(c) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of
the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a
separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated
with the item will flow to the Group and Company and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are
incurred.

notes to the financial statements (continued)
31 DECEMBER 2006
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(c) Property, plant and equipment (continued)
The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each balance sheet date
to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. An impairment loss is recognised in
the income statements whenever the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and
equipment exceeds its recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and
are included in profit/(loss) from operations.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the period in which they
are incurred. The cost of major renovations is included in the carrying amount of the asset when
it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed standard of
performance of the existing asset will flow to the Group.
(d) Other investment
Investment in golf club membership is shown at cost and an allowance for diminution in value is
made where, in the opinion of the Directors, there is a decline other than temporary in the value
of such investment. Where there has been a decline other than temporary in the value of an
investment, such a decline is recognised as an expense in the financial period in which the
decline is identified.
(e) Investments
The investments are carried at lower of cost and market value. Market value is calculated by
reference to quoted selling prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date.
Increase/decrease in the carrying amounts of investments are credited/charged to the income
statement.
The carrying value of fixed income securities are valued at cost adjusted for amortisation of
premium or accretion of discount over their par values at the time of acquisition on an effective
yield method. The premium or discount is amortised or accreted over the remaining term of the
securities from the date of acquisition.
(f) Receivables
Receivables are carried at anticipated realisable values. Known bad debts are written off in the
period in which they are identified and specific allowance is made for any considered to be
doubtful of collection. An estimate is made for doubtful debts based on a review of all
outstanding amounts at the financial year end.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(g) Income taxes
Current tax expense is determined according to the tax laws of each jurisdiction in which the
Group operates and includes all taxes based upon the taxable profits.
Deferred tax is recognised in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising
between the amounts attributed to assets and liabilities for tax purposes and their carrying
amounts in the financial statements. However, deferred income tax is not accounted for if it
arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or
loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses can be utilised.
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising on investment in subsidiaries
except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled by the
Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related
deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
(h) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand
and bank balances, demand deposits, bank overdraft and short term, highly liquid investments
that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.
(i) Hire purchase payables
Assets purchased under hire purchase agreements are capitalised as property, plant and
equipment and depreciated in accordance with the policy set out in Note 3(c) above. The
corresponding obligations due under the hire purchase agreements after deducting finance
charges are included as hire purchase payables while finance charges are charged to the income
statement on a straight line basis over the term of the respective hire purchase agreements.

Amanah Raya Berhad 2006 annual report
financial statements
notes to the financial statements (continued)
31 DECEMBER 2006
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(j) Impairment of assets
Property, plant and equipment and other non-current assets (except for amounts due from
subsidiaries, associates and deferred tax assets) are reviewed for impairment losses whenever
events or changes in circumstances (for depreciable non-current assets) indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. Impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the
higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, the recoverable amount is determined on an identified
asset basis or on the cash generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs to. An assets
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less cost to sell or its value in
use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
value using a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital. Where the carrying amount of an asset
exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its
recoverable amount.
The impairment loss is charged to the income statement unless it reverses a previous revaluation
in which case it is charged to the revaluation surplus. Any subsequent increase in recoverable
amount is recognised in the income statement unless it reverses an impairment loss on a revalued
asset in which case it is taken to revaluation surplus.
Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. An impairment loss for an
asset other than goodwill is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates
used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.
The carrying amount of an asset other than goodwill is increased to its revised recoverable
amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the
asset in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill is recognised
in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case, such reversal is
treated as a revaluation increase.
(k) Intangible assets
(i) Goodwill
Goodwill arises on business combinations when the cost of acquisition exceeds the fair value
of the Company’s share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities
acquired. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. Gains and losses on the disposal of
an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

notes to the financial statements (continued)
31 DECEMBER 2006
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(k) Intangible assets (continued)
(i) Goodwill (continued)
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (‘CGU’) for the purpose of impairment testing.
Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment
losses. Impairment testing is performed annually and it is done by comparing the present
value of the CGU’s projected cash flows against the carrying amount of its net assets which
include the allocated goodwill. The allocation is made to those cash-generating units or
groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the
business combination in which the goodwill arose. The Group and the Company allocates
goodwill to each business units (Note 16).
(ii) Other intangible assets
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to
acquire and bring to use the specific software.
Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, or are not yet ready for use, are tested
for impairment annually. This impairment test may be performed at any time during the year,
provided it is performed at the same time every year. An intangible asset recognised during
the current period is tested before the end of the current year.
(l) Financial instruments
(i) Description
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to both a financial asset of one
enterprise and a financial liability or equity instrument of another enterprise.
A financial asset is any asset that is cash, a contractual right to receive cash or another
financial asset from another enterprise, a contractual right to exchange financial instruments
with another enterprise under conditions that are potentially favourable, or an equity
instrument of another enterprise.
A financial liability is any liability that is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another
financial asset to another enterprise, or the exchange of financial instruments with another
enterprise under conditions that are potentially unfavourable.
(ii) Financial instruments recognised on the balance sheet
The particular recognition adopted for financial instruments recognised on the balance sheet
is disclosed in the individual policy statements associated with each item.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(l) Financial instruments (continued)
(iii) Fair value estimation for disclosure purposes
The fair values, less any estimated credit adjustments for financial assets and liabilities with
a maturity of more than one year are estimated using a variety of methods and assumptions
that are based on market conditions existing at each balance sheet date. Other techniques,
such as estimated discounted value of future cash flows, are used where possible, to
determine the fair value for the remaining financial instruments. In particular, the fair value
of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at the current market
interest rate available to the Group for similar financial instruments.
The face values of financial assets (less any estimated credit adjustments) and financial
liabilities with a maturity period of less than one year are assumed to approximate their fair
values.
(m) Employee benefits
(i) Short term employee benefits
Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits are
accrued in the financial year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of
the Group.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
The Group’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the income statement
in the period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no
further payment obligations.
(iii) Defined benefit plans
The liability in respect of a defined benefit plan is the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the balance sheet date minus the fair value of plan assets, together with
adjustments for actuarial gains/losses and past service cost. The Group determines the
present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of any plan assets with
sufficient regularity such that the amounts recognised in the financial statements do not
differ materially from the amounts that would be determined at the balance sheet date.
The defined benefit obligation, calculated using the projected unit credit method, is
determined by independent actuaries, considering the estimated future cash outflows using
market yields at balance sheet date of government securities which have currency and terms
to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability.

(n) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised upon performance of services and net of service taxes, and after
eliminating sales within the Group.
Interest income from fixed income securities are recognised on an accrual basis.
Dividends from quoted investments are recognised on the ex-dividend date.
Realised gain and loss on sale of quoted investments is arrived at after accounting for cost of
investments, determined on the weighted average cost method.
Realised gain and loss on sale of fixed income securities is measured by the difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments.
(o) Dividends
Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised as liabilities when proposed or declared before the
balance sheet date. A dividend proposed or declared after the balance sheet date, but before
the financial statements are authorised for issue, is not recognised as a liability at the balance
sheet date.

management fees earned from Kumpulan Wang Bersama to be tax exempted for a period of 16
years from 1 January 1996 to 31 December 2010. As a result, tax submissions for prior years will
be revised, giving rise to a recovery of overpayment of tax in prior years amounting to
approximately RM7.98 million.

The earnings per share for the Group has been calculated based on the net profit attributable to
the equity holders of the Company of RM41,983,534 (2005: RM13,004,414) by the weighted

Impairment test for goodwill
During 2006, impairment testing was performed on goodwill arising from the acquisition of ARJMF. The
recoverable amount of ARJMF (for goodwill arising from business combination prior to 2006) is
determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections
based on the 2007 financial budgets approved by management, projected for 5 years based on 10.0%
growth rate. The cash flow projection after the fifth year are extrapolated in perpetuity using a
nominal long-term growth rate of 5.7% per annum which takes into consideration the current GDP and
inflation. The discount rate used is 5.7% which reflects the specific risks relating to the ARJMF.
Impairment will only arise if the discount rate increases to 94.1%.
17. DEFERRED TAX
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current
tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred taxes relate to the same tax authority.

(a) Defined contribution plan
Group companies incorporated in Malaysia contribute to the Employees Provident Fund, the national
defined contribution plan. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no further payment
obligations.
(b) Defined benefit plan
The Group operated an unapproved and unfunded final salary defined benefit plan for its employees.
This plan was valued by an independent actuary every three years using the projected unit credit
method. The last actuarial valuation was carried out as at 30 September 2004. An unrecognised
transitional liability was identified in the 30 September 2002 actuarial valuation. This was being
amortised over five years as allowed under FRS 119.
The movements during the period in which the amount recognised in the balance sheet in respect of the
Group and the Company’s lump sum retirement benefit plan are as follows:
