PCB Abruptly Removes Five Solih-Era Appointees From BML Board

The Privatization and Corporatization Board (PCB) abruptly removed five appointees of the former Solih administration from the Board of Bank of Maldives (BML), including Chairperson Yooshau Saeed. This reduction left the board with only five members, below the legal minimum of eight, raising legal questions. Another appointee, Mohamed Sharah, had previously resigned. The remaining board members are CEO Karl Stumke, Deputy CEO Aishath Noordeen, and three public appointees. The dismissals come amid BML's refusal to implement a Cabinet decision to increase student card limits abroad due to dollar supply shortage.
