Meanwhile, KFH later indicated that it was thoroughly studying the potential expansion opportunities in Saudi Arabia, adding that the move aligned with KFH’s strategy of investing in other regional banks, including Saudi Arabia.

 

KFH is committed to fulfilling all the relevant requirements of the regulatory bodies, especially the Central Bank of Kuwait (CBK).
