Bahraini Women’s Day logo backs women in finance

MANAMA, April 13, 2015

The Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB) in co-operation with the Supreme Council for Women (SCW) yesterday launched the official logo for Bahraini Women's Day 2015.

Each year, under the patronage of Her Royal Highness Princess Sabeeka bint Ibrahim Al Khalifa, wife of His Majesty King Hamad and SCW president, the work of women is recognised, said a report in the Gulf Daily News (GDN), our sister publication.

This year celebrates the contributions of 'Women in the Financial and Banking Sector'.

The logo has been circulated to all financial and banking institutions licensed by the CBB as the industry launches a series of events promoting the role of women in the sector.

This includes a series of roundtables and mentoring programmes leading up to a main conference on 'Women in Banking and Finance' on November 30, just ahead of the annual Bahraini Women's Day on December 1.

The CBB renewed its invitation to all financial and banking institutions to support the planned activities.

CBB executive director of corporate services Dr Huda Hussain Al Maskati said the launch of the logo forms part of its efforts to showcase the important role that women have played in the development of the industry in Bahrain over the last 50 years.

“The year-long event celebrates women's success stories to encourage a new generation of women to pursue a career in the financial and banking industry.” - TradeArabia News Service
