Manama : Ithmaar Bank has been named as the Best Islamic Retail Bank in Bahrain in a ceremony attended by senior bankers from across the Middle East.

The award was received on behalf of the Ithmaar Bank Chief Executive Officer, Ahmed Abdul Rahim, by the Ithmaar Bank Head of Commercial and Financial Institutions, Abdulla Talib.

“Winning this award is testimony to the fact that the vision spelled out by the Ithmaar Bank Board of Directors, led by the Chairman His Royal Highness Prince Amr Al Faisal, is being translated into a tangible reality,” said Abdul Rahim.

“Enhanced customer satisfaction, as well as the subsequent growth of our core retail banking business, is great reward in itself and I am confident that the recognition will help inspire us to even greater achievements,” said Abdul Rahim.

Ithmaar Bank was presented the prestigious award following a comprehensive selection and review process conducted by a committee of high-level economists and banking professionals, as well the research department of the Union of Arab Banks and the World Union of Arab Bankers.

Wissam Fattouh, Secretary General, World Union of Arab Bankers (WUAB) and Union of Arab Banks (UAB) congratulated Ithmaar Bank on winning the award and wished the Bank continued success.

“Winning the Best Islamic Retail Bank in the Bahrain category is testimony to Ithmaar Bank’s reputation for excellence, and we congratulate them on this major achievement,” said Fattouh.

“It is a great achievement and a powerful testimony to the Bank’s remarkable success,” he said.
