Gulf Bank hails the success of the 6th Euromoney Conference in Kuwait

Gulf Bank hailed the successful completion of its sponsorship of the 6^th Euromoney Conference which took place on 9 September 2014 at the JW Marriott Hotel in Kuwait. This year’s conference included keynote addresses from the Minister of Finance, H.E. Anas Al-Saleh and Governor of the Central Bank of Kuwait H.E. Dr Mohammed Al-Hashel.   

During the conference, Omar Kutayba Alghanim, Chairman of Gulf Bank expressed his thanks to a number of groups, including the Central Bank of Kuwait, Gulf Bank’s Board of Directors, and the Bank’s dedicated staff and loyal customers reiterating the important role they play and that without their support the Bank would not have emerged from the financial crisis with the stability and strength that it now exhibits. 

Mr Alghanim said: “Gulf Bank’s recovery could not have been achieved without the consistent support  from the Central Bank of Kuwait, our loyal customers, the board of directors and, of course, our committed and dedicated employees.  

“Moving forward, we want Gulf Bank to be the ‘bank of choice’ within Kuwait, known for its innovation and dedication to delivering the highest quality service and products. For investors, we want to be known for providing superior long-term return on investment and financial solidity, and for regulators to be certain that we will continue to deliver a superior return on investment while fully adhering to the necessary restrictions required to insure regional stability within the financial sector. These things cannot be achieved without a great team, and so I want Gulf Bank, to be renowned for its performance-driven culture, built on clearly defined goals. A meritocracy, not just of people but of ideas as well. 

“This year’s Euromoney Conference has been a fantastic platform for the industry to discuss future developments in Kuwait’s financial sector.  With new technology, products and opportunities, I am sure that there are exciting times ahead for the industry and I am very proud that Gulf Bank will be a part of this.”
