Summit Bank get another chance to grow

According to the stock filing, Summit Bank Limited informed that it received a letter from the Chairman of the Nasser Abdulla Lootah Group, who is also the Chairman of the Summit Bank.

Summit Bank has received a notification of interest from a Dubai-based investor HE Nasser Abdulla Hussain Lootah who has expressed his intention to acquire a controlling stake in the bank through fresh investment.
I, Mr. Nasser Abdullah Hussain Lootah, am writing to explore the possibility of acquiring at least a controlling stake in Summit Bank Limited by subscribing to fresh equity in the bank. It is also envisaged that this equity injection enable the bank to with the minimum capital requirement and capital adequacy ratio requirements as required by the State Bank of Pakistan.
In this regard, an exclusivity agreement has been shared with the board of directors for the confirmation that will ultimately give a green signal to the transactions for executing the deal.

The Dubai-based investor and chairman is controlling the bank through Suroor Investment Limited, a Mauritius based investment group, which owns 70 percent stakes. However, he offered the investment or equity injection through personal capacity.

Summit Bank has been running in losses since it was founded with the merger of two banks,My Bank and Atlas Bank in 2011.

In 2017, Summit Bank and Sindh Bank entered into an agreement of a merger and amalgamation by way of shares swap. The process was later seen as objectionable and was stopped through an intervention of the Supreme Court of Pakistan. Ultimately, the merger deal could not be sealed on the litigation ground that also resulted in the arrest of its former CEO and President.

The board of directors of Summit Bank had outlined its backup plan earlier which mentions that its major sponsor Suroor Investment Limited would inject funds in the bank which is falling short of paid-up capital (less than Rs. 10 billion) and solvency requirement of the regulator. However, it discovered an offer from its sitting Chairman from a different capacity.

Summit Bank’s losses have surged to over Rs. 1.1 billion with non-performing loans at Rs. 17 billion. It has been operating with nearly 200 branches across the country with an asset value of Rs. 233 billion.

Mr. Thomas Schaefer, 54, was found dead near a railway track on Saturday.  He knew the culprits behind the Corona epidemic and that Culprits are the killers. It could be possible Mosaad  killed Thomas Schaefer for the sack of their interest because Mr. Thomas Schaefer was exposing all facts of Corona Epidemic,  Mossad and its allies MI & CIA didn't like and killed him. Main stream media which is under control of Mossad and its allies continuously reported this murdered as Suicide. According to media reports; "The finance minister of Germany's Hesse state Thomas Schaefer committed suicide apparently after becoming “deeply worried” over how to cope with the economic fallout from the coronavirus, state premier Volker Bouffier said on Sunday."

Justice for Tabrez Ansari- trend viral on social Media

"تبریز انصاری", بھارت کے علاقے پونے کا رہنے والا ایک نوجوان جس کی تین ماہ پہلے شادی ہوئی تھی. چھٹیاں منانے گھر آیا تھا.  کسی کام سے گاؤں سے باہر گیا جہاں ہندو بلوائیوں نے روک کر نام پوچھا اور چوری کے الزام میں پکڑ لیا.  کھمبے سے باندھ کر آٹھ گھنٹے تک مسلسل مارتے رہے اور ہندوانہ نعرے لگواتے رہے. اس دوران پولیس بھی وہاں پہنچ گئی لیکن خاموش تماشائی بنی رہی. آٹھ گھنٹے تک مارنے کے بعد پولیس نے شدید زخمی حالت میں پکڑ کر جیل میں ڈال دیا اور بنا کسی علاج اور مرہم پٹی کے چار دن تک اسے جیل میں بند رکھا.  یہاں تک کہ تبریز کے اہلِ خانہ تھانے پہنچے اور اسے لے کر ہسپتال میں داخل کروایا.  ہسپتال میں ظلم یہ ہوا کہ ڈاکٹر نے ایک زندہ انسان کو مردہ قرار دے دیا.  جب گھر والوں کو پتا چلا کہ زندہ ہے تو انہوں نے پولیس سے بڑے ہسپتال میں لے جانے کی درخواست کی. لیکن یہاں بھی پولیس نے جان بوجھ کر تاخیر کی. پہلے تو بڑے ہسپتال منتقل کرنے کی اجازت نہیں دی اور جب اجازت دی تو دیر سے ہسپتال لے کر پہنچے جس کی وجہ سے تبریز راستے میں ہی اپنے خالقِ حقیقی سے جا ملے.  ا...

Custodial Killing of a Human being is an act of Terrorism

SRINAGAR: A prominent pro-independence leader in Indian Kashmir on Saturday condemned the killing of Moamer Qaddafi, saying the fallen Libyan dictator had been a “friend” and supporter of Kashmiris. “In his death, the people of Kashmir have lost their friend,” Yasin Malik, chairman of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), said in a statement. A marathon United Nations diatribe by Qaddafi in September 2009 annoyed India but won him an enthusiastic fan base in Indian-administered Kashmir. Qaddafi berated Western powers for an hour and 35 minutes from the General Assembly podium in a speech covering issues as diverse as John F. Kennedy’s assassination, swine flu and his support for Kashmiri independence. “Kashmir should be an independent state, not Indian, not Pakistani. We should end this conflict,” Qaddafi told the UN assembly. His remarks were splashed across the front pages of Kashmir’s leading dailies, as the region’s separatist leaders applauded. Malik’s JKLF wan...

پاکستان کو پانی کے لئے بھارت پر ایٹمی حملہ کرنا پڑے گا؟

آئیے آپ کو بتاتے ہیں کہ بھارت پاکستان کے ساتھ کس طرح جنگ چھیڑ چکا ہے اور اس جنگ میں بھارت کو مسلسل کامیابی مل رہی ہے جب کہ پاکستان کی عوام اور اس کے حکمران گھوڑے بیچ کر سو رہے ہیں۔ اور اس غلط فہمی میں چپ سادھ رکھی ہے کہ کونسا بھارت نے پاکستانکے خلاف میدان جنگ اپنی فوج اتار دی ہے۔ توقع کے عین مطابق عالمی بینک نے کشن گنگا ڈیم کی تعمیر پر پاکستان کی شکایات اور شواہد کو ناکافی قرار دے کر مسترد کر دیا ہے۔ یہ پاکستان کی بھارت سے سفارتی محاذ پر ایک بڑی شکست ہے۔ کشن گنگا ڈیم کی تعمیر 2009 میں شروع ہوئی جب پیپلز پارٹی کی حکومت تھی اور ن لیگ مضبوط اپوزیشن تھی۔2011 کے بعد دو سال تک یہ کیس عالمی عدالت میں چلتا رہا لیکن بالآخر عالمی ثالثی عدالت نے نہ صرف پاکستان کے اعتراضات مسترد کر دیے بلکہ بھارت کو پانی کا رخ موڑنے کی اجازت دے دی۔ یاد رہے کہ یہ وہ دور تھا جب بھارت کو پسندیدہ ترین ملک قرار دیا جارہا تھا اور خارجہ امور کا قلمدان بھی وزیر اعظم میاں نواز شریف کے پاس تھا۔ بھارت نوازی کی داستان صرف یہیں ختم نہیں ہوئی بلکہ دریائے سندھ پر تحقیق سے پتہ چلا کہ انڈیا نے ڈیم بنا کر دریائے سندھ کا سا...
