Penang’s new financial hub


JALAN Sultan Ahmad Shah, popularly known as “the millionaire’s row”, has since the mid-90s emerged successfully as the alternative prime financial district on the island, overshadowing Beach Street, the oldest commercial hub of Penang.  

Many of the country’s well-known foreign and local banks are now located on this famous road, where local millionaires such as the late Lim Lean Teng, Yap Chor Ee, and Tan Sri Loh Boon Siew built their mansions and resided.
