KFH is the first and leading Sharia compliant bank in Kuwait and will be the first fully Islamic Financial institution in Kuwait to join GBSA as an active member of GBSA's Kuwait Chapter.

As a member of GBSA's leadership community, KFH-Group intends to engage with the regulatory and investment communities to further advance the Sukuk market.
