Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) said its group CEO Bassel Gamal (pictured) has been honoured at the 2015 top CEO awards, an event held by the Trends business magazine and the INSEAD Business School. The award was in recognition to honour leading CEOs whose success in their respective organisations played a pivotal role in the region’s sustained growth. “The Top CEO Awards distinguishes itself from other schemes by stipulating that only CEOs of listed companies are eligible for entry. The awards are based on the financials of these companies, with the entire evaluation process being fully transparent and audited,” said Julien Hawari, Co-CEO at Mediaquest, the publications and events company behind the initiative.
