Doha, Qatar, March 18, 2024: Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB), Qatar’s leading digital bank, has recently received three awards at The Asset Triple A Digital Awards. The bank has been honored with the titles of Digital Bank of the Year in Qatar for the fourth year in a row, Best Retail Mobile Banking Experience in Qatar, and Best Mobile Banking Application in Qatar as a recognition of its pioneering efforts in digital banking innovation and commitment to enhancing the customer journey.
QIB has made significant progress in introducing first-to-market digital products and services in Qatar, as part of its commitment to offering customers innovative and convenient banking solutions that match their lifestyles and needs.
