David Proctor, al khaliji Chief Executive Officer commented "The impact from launching our first retail branches less than 3 months ago has been immediate. Customer deposits increased QAR936mm in the quarter and customer loans, advances and financial activities now total QAR4.86bn.

The global financial crisis offers tremendous opportunities for a new, well capitalized bank like al khaliji and customers and shareholders can expect to see further expansion in our branch network before the year end. Our Corporate and Islamic Banking businesses are also very active so I'm delighted with our progress - and very proud of the special staff we have at al khaliji!"
