Private bank appoints new head and deputy head of retail banking.  

International Bank of Qatar (IBQ) has announced the appointment of Andrew Ball and Hassan Al Mulla as its respective head and deputy head of retail banking.

Prior to this appointment Ball worked as the bank’s head of strategic products, after having held senior positions at a number of European and Gulf banks. Al Mulla started out in Islamic finance before moving to the bank’s Qatari Development arm.  

Founded as the Ottoman Bank in 1956, the Qatari division of the group was renamed IBQ in 2004 after National Bank of Kuwait took managerial control through the acquisition of a 20% stake.
