This recognition emanates from KFH’s long standing endeavors to support and patronize the Kuwaiti champions who raise the name of Kuwait at the international forums and global events. It also reassures the bank’s ongoing commitment towards assuming its part in society.
Al-Mutairi lauded KFH for this recognition that affirms the bank’s keenness to recognize the distinguished people, while reflects its prestigious status as a global leading Islamic financial institution.
