DOHA: Al Khalij Commercial Bank (al khaliji) has been named “Best Premium Bank” in the Middle East by the Banker Middle East Industry Awards 2013, according to a statement yesterday.
Organised by CPI Financial, the annual awards set the benchmark for successful banking in the Mena region.
Al Khaliji’s Group CEO, Robin McCall, said: “We are honoured to be recognised by the Banker Middle East Industry Awards 2013 as the Best Premium Bank.
