As Mashreq celebrates over 50 years in Qatar, we are eager to continue our journey of partnering with businesses and contributing to the Qatar Vision 2030. Qatar holds a special place in our history, as it was the location of the first offshore Mashreq branch in 1971. Since then, Mashreq-Qatar has remained committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions through our talented teams to our clients. Our clients have entrusted us with central roles in key strategic projects, including prestigious infrastructure developments in the country. We take pride in the trust our clients place in us, and our teams are dedicated to meeting their needs. This commitment has been recognized by industry-leading awards, such as Euromoney Best Trade Services for the past two years and Market Leader Cash Management in 2022. This recognition serves as a responsibility for us to continue our journey by deploying the most advanced solutions, digitizing our interface, and maintaining a strong focus on building and nurturing relationships with our clients. As we look ahead, we are excited to continue contributing to the growth and success of Qatar, aligning ourselves with the country's vision and evolving to meet the changing needs of our clients.
