Kuwait, September 24, 2012: Warba Bank, the most recently opened Islamic bank in Kuwait, today launched a nationwide tour of malls and universities in Kuwait. From 24-29 September, a Warba Bank booth will be located at the 360 Mall, offering people an opportunity to learn more about the bank's products and services. The booth will then move onto four other locations in Kuwait - The Avenues, Marina Mall, Kuwait University and Al Kout Mall before finishing in early January 2013.

Current and potential customers visiting the booths can learn more about the bank's services, including its recently-launched 'La T7aty' campaign for salary accounts, which offers new customers instant valuable gifts, in addition to one or two chances to win a brand new Mini Cooper.

The booth also offers information on Warba Bank's 'Murabaha' service, which meets the financing needs of customers with entire flexibility via basic monthly installments. The new Sharia compliant service allows customers to purchase goods and pay in easy installments within a period that starts from six months up to 15 years. The service includes house finance, construction and renovation, as well as consumer products such as boats and marine equipment, furniture, electronic appliances and cars, as well as other goods, and is available with competitive profit rates.
