The recognition comes as a testament to Bukhamseen's remarkable leadership and unwavering commitment to driving KIB's development and growth.
Distinguishably among the honorees this year came Bukhamseen, chosen for his visionary guidance, under which KIB has established a clear strategy and vision for the future, demonstrating outstanding corporate communication and management across all sectors.

Celebrating his award, Bukhamseen said: “Receiving this accolade for the year 2023 from such a prestigious entity continues to make me proud of what we do. I would like to thank the Central Bank of Kuwait and all regulatory authorities for their invaluable support and distinguished supervisory role in the banking industry. I am also thankful for the continuous guidance and tireless efforts of the Bank’s Chairman, the Board of Directors and the Executive Management team as they continue contributing to KIB’s growth and success. Lastly, I am grateful to all KIB employees for their dedication, cooperation and hard work in meeting the requirements of our customers and shareholders alike.”
