FDH moves in to calm anxious clients over Mpinganjira arrest in bribery saga

FDH Financial Holdings Limited officials have moved in to calm anxious clients and the financial market over the arrest of its group chief executive officer Thomson Mpinganjira in the alleged judge bribery attempt in the presidential election nullification petition case.

Mpinganjira, who is also board chairperson of Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (Escom), was arrested on Wednesday on allegations that he attempted to bribe Constitutional Court judges over the election case.

Mkulichi: FDH subsidiaries not affected
In a statement, FDH chairman Noel Mkulichi says FDH subsidiaries namely  FDH Bank, FDH Money Bureau and First Discount House are not affected by the arrest of Mpinganjira.
“…we would like to assure all stakeholders that the institution operates in a highly regulated environment and remains well capitalised,” says Mkulichi.
He says the business operations of the subsidiaries are fully functional.
Mpinganjira was arrested on Wednesday and released controversially at midnight.
The High Court is reviewing circumstances leading to the release of the business mogul.

Its the same jealousy of Malawians that killed Press Corporation Limited just because it was linked to Kamuzu and MCP. The consequences are so many including our men and women losing their jobs and becoming jobless, Amwenyes infiltrating Malawi with their cheap businesses and then repatriating our monies to their respective countries. If you say you don’t want to associate yourself with FDH and its subsidiaries just because its connected to Mpinganjira then just know that you are killing jobs for several fellow Malawians and mind you, the banks you now want to support are foreign banks, they send all… Read more »

Let’s just imagine that the FDH Bank was a publicly-listed company on the Stock Exchange in a western country; the value of its shares would have tumbled big time overnight irrespective of the fact that an incorporated company is a separate legal entity from the proprietor of the company itself, and cannot, therefore, be deemed to be complicit in the private shady shenanigans of its majority shareholder. The shares would have fallen drastically because depositors would have queued to withdraw their money. Economics 101 – Introduction to Banking: Banks survive on trust. No matter how profitable a bank is, if… Read more »

FDH is operating in a very corrupt culture. Malawi as country is poor and corrupt. Which sector of our economy is corruption free? None!
