Reaffirming its national responsibility and commitment to supporting strategic national initiatives

Gulf Bank announced a financial contribution of USD 3 million to the Kuwait Emergency Response Fund, administered by the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development (KFAED), in support of national efforts to enhance the country's preparedness to respond to emergencies and exceptional circumstances.

This initiative embodies Gulf Bank's deep sense of national responsibility and its commitment to supporting initiatives that strengthen the country's ability to address evolving challenges and exceptional circumstances with efficiency and resilience. It also reinforces the Bank's support for Kuwait Vision 2035 and its objectives of building a sustainable economy and a more prepared and resilient society, in line with Gulf Bank's role as a key partner in Kuwait's comprehensive development.

Gulf Bank affirmed that the contribution reflects its belief in the importance of coordinating efforts between the public and private sectors. Enhancing national preparedness and ensuring the continuity of vital services are shared responsibilities that help safeguard national achievements, reinforce the foundations of security and stability, and sustain the country's development under all circumstances.

Sustainability remains a core pillar of Gulf Bank's corporate strategy. The Bank continues to launch and support high-impact economic, social, and environmental initiatives, guided by its commitment to investing in people and communities and building partnerships that deliver lasting positive impact. It also applies sustainability best practices across its operations and initiatives, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals and the priorities of Kuwait Vision 2035.

The contribution builds on Gulf Bank's long-standing record of supporting national and community initiatives across education, youth empowerment, entrepreneurship, financial inclusion, volunteerism, and environmental conservation. These efforts reflect the Bank's belief that the banking sector is an essential partner in advancing sustainable development and enhancing quality of life across society.

KFAED's Board of Directors allocated USD 100 million as a founding contribution to the Kuwait Emergency Response Fund. Established pursuant to a resolution of the Council of Ministers, the Fund is intended to finance and support national initiatives that strengthen the country's preparedness to meet emergency requirements and ensure the continuity of essential services under all circumstances.
