This transition is made possible primarily because of DSSA’s long-term investment in top Saudi investment banking talent. We thank Jamal for leading DSSA since inception and wish Tamim success in his new role.”

Al Kishi said: “Tamim was Deutsche Bank’s first hire in Saudi Arabia prior to the establishment of DSSA and has been a key contributor to the development of Deutsche Bank’s overall franchise in the kingdom. Tamim’s thorough knowledge of the Saudi investment banking landscape and high-quality relationships with clients and stakeholders will help position DSSA to continually improve our service to clients in the Kingdom while capitalising on the wide spectrum of opportunities in Saudi Arabia."

Ziyad Al Ashaikh, general manager, Deutsche Bank AG Riyadh, said: "Tamim's appointment to lead our securities subsidiary, DSSA, is a fitting recognition of his contributions to our franchise and will send a powerful signal to our local talent pool as to the potential to grow within the Deutsche Bank Group."
