BAFT recently formed the Global Regional Bank Council to bring regional banks – those with total assets of USD$250bn or less, regardless of geographic location – together as a community to discuss issues that matter most to this group and amplify their collective voices. Joy Macknight from The Banker sat down with our very own board chair, Maram Al-Jazireh, SVP and Global Head of Financial Institutions at Arab Bank, for a closer look at the new council, and top-of-mind issues of regional banks today.
