RAM Ratings has received confirmation from Zamarad Assets Berhad that it fully redeemed its outstanding Tranche 2 RM20 mil Class A and RM20 mil Class B Sukuk on 24 July 2026. The Class B Sukuk was redeemed on its expected maturity date, ahead of its legal maturity date of 26 January 2028. Following the redemption, we have accordingly withdrawn the AAA/Stable ratings of the Class A and Class B Sukuk and no longer have any rating obligation in respect of these instruments. The ratings were last published on 17 November 2025 (click here).

We will continue to provide rating coverage on the remaining outstanding tranches, Tranches 3 to 11, under Zamarad’s RM2.0 bil Sukuk Murabahah Asset-Backed Securitisation Programme. The transaction is backed by the securitisation of personal financing facilities extended to civil servants and originated through the business partners of RCE Marketing Sdn Bhd, a wholly owned subsidiary of RCE Capital Berhad.

The credit rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold a security, inasmuch as it does not comment on the security’s market price or its suitability for a particular investor, nor does it involve any audit by RAM Ratings. The credit rating also does not reflect the legality and enforceability of financial obligations.

RAM Ratings receives compensation for its rating services, normally paid by the issuers of such securities or the rated entity, and sometimes third parties participating in marketing the securities, insurers, guarantors, other obligors, underwriters, etc. The receipt of this compensation has no influence on RAM Ratings’ credit opinions or other analytical processes. In all instances, RAM Ratings is committed to preserving the objectivity, integrity and independence of its ratings. Rating fees are communicated to clients prior to the issuance of rating opinions. While RAM Ratings reserves the right to disseminate the ratings, it receives no payment for doing so, except for subscriptions to its publications.

Similarly, the disclaimers above also apply to RAM Ratings’ credit-related analyses and commentaries, where relevant.
