QIB opens ‘model’ branch in Muaither

Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) recently inaugurated its state-of-the-art “model” branch in Muaither in a new and improved location. The initiative is part of QIB’s strategy to expand its domestic network and ensure that a variety of customer needs are met through services that are provided closer to home. QIB’s expansion scheme aims to cover all vital locations in the country, thereby reinforcing its geographical presence and enabling its customers to take advantage of the country’s economic prosperity. The redesigned Muaither branch aims to provide QIB’s customers with a fresh banking experience without detaching from the values of the bank. According to a statement issued by the bank, the layout has been redesigned to optimise the space and make it more welcoming, and the open-plan design emphasises QIB’s values of transparency. The use of colours, along with white, adds to the modern and fresh feel to conduct business in. The branch features upgraded technology, which, along with the new look and feel, reflects QIB’s identity as a progressive Islamic bank, it adds.The branch is divided into three sections – the main banking hall, where comprehensive banking services are provided for all; a dedicated Tamayuz centre to meet the demands of affluent customers; and a special women’s section complete with a separate entrance where customers can bank in complete privacy.D Anand, general manager of the Personal Banking group, said: “The Muaither branch has been relocated to a larger location in order to offer a more convenient service to all our customers in and around the area. It is part of QIB’s strategy to constantly improve our offerings and provide a ‘whole new way of banking’ experience to our customers.”The Muaither branch will remain open from 7.30am to 1.30pm (9am to 2pm and 9pm to 11.30pm during Ramadan).
