OLP Modaraba (formerly ORIX Modaraba) (ORIXM) started its operations in 1987 as the First Grindlays Modaraba (FGM). Its initial public offering still holds the record for the most oversubscribed share (14 times) in the history of the PSX. The first few clients were Pakistan Burma Shell, Pakistan State Oil and Siemens. The Modaraba, since then, continues growing its clientele and financial footing. In the year 2000, Standard Chartered Bank acquired the ANZ Grindlays Bank Asia operations. With this acquisition, FGM became a part of the global banking Standard Chartered Group PLC conglomerate. During these years, Standard Chartered Modaraba (SCM) became a pioneering Islamic Financial Institution in Pakistan. In 2016, ORIX Group of Japan acquired the SCB shareholding in SCM. This was a landmark transaction where one of the world’s largest rental and asset management conglomerates entered into specialized Islamic finance space, acquiring an entity that is undoubtedly a thought leader in the Pakistani Islamic Financial Market
