Speaking to us this week is Ala Aljayyusi (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ala-aljayyusi-dba-74b84515a\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>), managing director at CBIx. Edited excerpts from our conversation below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I\u2019ve been a banker for most of my life<\/strong>, though I prefer to call myself now a financial services provider, because what I do is not limited to just banking anymore. I'm very fond of financial markets in general. I like how money moves. I went to business school \u2014 contrary to what my parents wanted at the time \u2014 and as soon as I finished, after getting graduation training in Jordan Ahli Bank, I came to Dubai. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I worked on mortgages and home finance<\/strong> in 2005 as a product development manager at Tamweel, which was a subsidiary of Dubai Islamic Bank. I later moved to sales, then to Barclays doing mortgages again, and then to an investment company, which is where I was exposed to direct investments and equity shares and that side of finance. I then moved to Saudi Arabia for six years to work with Deutsche Bank, before coming back to Dubai to work at DIFC for a couple of years, and landed at CBI after that. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>When I joined, our CEO had just taken over and the bank was going through a housekeeping overhaul.<\/strong> The number of branches was significantly reduced, from 28 to 8, and there was a plan to focus purely on corporate banking. I joined in 2020, so we, along with the rest of the world, had to work against the odds. Despite the fact that this phase passed and we remained profitable, it was an eye-opener in terms of how behind we were innovation-wise. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We realized that if we want to do things better, faster, and cheaper, we need to innovate. <\/strong>We found the best approach for a bank of our size is not to build from scratch, but to partner with the people who are already doing it. We started going to fintech hubs like DIFC, Hub71, Kazakhstan, and Silicon Valley to learn more about the innovations happening across the world. This is how we started finding technologies that are useful not only for the bank, but for the wider financial services industry across the UAE and GCC. We started directly investing in those companies, and that\u2019s how the corporate venture arm of CBIx came to be. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The bank was very busy at the time and decisions like these took time<\/strong>, so we decided to offload the responsibility to CBIx, and add fresh blood and fresh ideas through an innovation lab and corporate venture capital arm. It was a good chance to find alternative revenues for the bank, and to diversify beyond just financial services. We invested in companies that do things ranging from carbon credits, to holographics, to AI-enabled credit scoring. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>For upcoming investments, I\u2019m really interested in the wealth that will exchange hands in the next five to ten years, and understanding the priorities of Gen Alpha<\/strong>, which are already doing things completely differently. They don\u2019t want a relationship manager to call and update them, they want everything to be a click away. They\u2019re also not interested in traditional assets like real estate or your typical S&amp;P 500 fund. I think AI will play a huge role in their wealth management journeys and in helping investment managers define the right investments for this generation. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I sleep very early, and wake up at 5am<\/strong> with my kids, and when they're off school, I'm off to the office. I usually start by catching up on my emails just on my phone before even getting to the office, and leave the bigger stuff for the office. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We\u2019ll be getting our own premises with different hours and policies to the bank<\/strong>, but for now, we follow their hours and their half-day policy on Fridays. That makes Friday my day for meetings. I\u2019m usually in DIFC, meeting people for coffee and casual chats. From Monday to Thursday, the schedule can change every day. We\u2019re in the building phase now, so every week is different to the next. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Our CEO does not micromanage, so we tend to follow that approach. <\/strong>We operate in isolation from the bank, and try to act more like a startup, while still benefitting from the bank\u2019s capabilities and the strong policies they do have. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Every day I make sure I catch up on my podcasts.<\/strong> On all my drives, I listen to podcasts, not music. I really enjoy <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stevenbartlett.com\/doac\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Diary of a CEO<\/a>, and I like some episodes of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.abtalks.ae\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">ABTalks<\/a>, like the one with Mo Gawdat, for example. I also like it because it\u2019s mostly in Arabic, and since my children don\u2019t speak much Arabic, it\u2019s a good way to get them familiarized while they\u2019re with me in the car. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I also read a lot, but on the plane usually, or when I take my son to football or my daughter to gymnastics.<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Good-Great-Some-Companies-Others\/dp\/0066620996\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Good to Great<\/a> is my favorite. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman\/dp\/0374533555\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Thinking, Fast and Slow<\/a> is another really good one.

By that I mean, AED 500-600 mn in financing every month. In micro-loans terms, that\u2019s a lot of transactions. I also want us to continue investing in companies and supporting entrepreneurs in the region through partnerships with accelerators. We\u2019re already in a partnership now with UC Berkeley for their accelerator, and we have a separate one with an accelerator in Central Asia called Al Farabi. We can later \u2014 say, in five years \u2014 offer up a portfolio of companies to our VIP clients to invest in as a product for high net worth individuals. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>There\u2019s a quote that I really like and I think sums up the concept of innovation for me.<\/strong> The quote is from Henry Ford, who said \u201cif I ask people what they want, they would have said faster horses.\u201d We don\u2019t know what we need until someone puts it in front of us.
