CIB feted at dinner with investors, corporates, journos in London

CIB feted at dinner with investors, corporates and journos in London: On Monday evening, Egypt’s ambassador to the UK, Nasser Kamel, held a dinner at his London residence in honour of CIB and the bank's contributions to business and the nation’s economy. Among those in attendance were senior executives from multinationals (including Vodafone, KPMG, and BP), institutional and private equity investors, CIB independent board members, senior editors from The Economist, the Wall Street Journal, and the BBC. The ambassador cited CIB as an example of the high caliber of Egypt's private sector and noted, in particular, the international recognition of CIB's performance when it was named the World's Best Bank in Emerging Markets by Euromoney this past July. Among our friends attending from CIB were Chairman and Managing Director Hisham Ezz Al-Arab and CEO Hussein Abaza as well as Amr Ganainy, Sherif Khalil, Nevine Wefky, and Islam Zekry.
