Accad said: "Our plan since 2009 has focused on building trust and returning to profitability as quickly as possible. Looking back over the period I believe we have made considerable progress towards these objectives.The last two years have seen us put Gulf Bank in a strong position; we have strengthened our balance sheet significantly; made good progress to resolve our legacy issues; delivered satisfactory results by re-focusing on our core competencies in retail and corporate banking; and we have seen our customer service levels improved. Our most recent results at 2011 half year showed a continuation of the progress we had seen in the previous year, with a further improvement in core operating profits before extraordinary items to KD 50 million. This reflects the consistent efforts of the Bank's employees to deliver excellence in service and to focus on our core skills. More importantly, we have seen increases in the amount of money deposited by our customers, indicating that we are being successful in our efforts to rebuild trust with our customers and expand our customer base," continued Accad. Gulf Bank 's progress has been closely monitored and endorsed in the many prestigious awards the Bank has received.
