QIIB announces liberal lending product

DOHA: International Islamic ( QIIB or Qatar International Islamic Bank ) announced yesterday a bonanza in the form of a liberal lending product for those who transfer their salaries to the bank.

But the minimum monthly salary of a customer wanting to take advantage of the new scheme should be QR5,000.

The new 'lending product' is available to both citizens and expatriates, the QIIB said in a press statement issued yesterday.

The bank's Deputy CEO, Jamal Abdullah Al Jamal said the new financing scheme has been designed in a manner that would attract a largest number of customers.

He, however, did not explain what the product is but said it was being launched keeping in mind customers' requirements in line with the QIIB 's customer-centric banking practices.

A person with a minimum salary of QR5,000 a month can avail this facility provided his salary is transferred to the bank. Importantly, no limit has been set for the amount one can avail under the new lending scheme, he said.

Existing QIIB customers can also take benefit from the scheme which is a straight forward product. The 'profit rate' (margins to be charged) starts at a minimum of 2.72 percent.

A key feature of the product is six months of grace period for the first instalment payment for the loan. Customers of the scheme will also receive a free credit card, the bank said. Those interested may contact any of the QIIB branches or the bank's 24-hour call centre for enquiries and details about the scheme.
