TWENTY BIBD employees were awarded certifications for wealth management in Islamic banking yesterday.
The Certified Qualification in Islamic Banking (CQIF) in Wealth Management received by BIBD’s employees elevated the bank’s capability to provide better Islamic wealth management consultation for its customers, a press release said.
