Wednesday, June 9, 2021

The United Insurance Company (UIC) announced its strategic partnership with the Bahrain Institute of Banking & Finance (BIBF), as it joins the corporate sponsorship project within the BIBF new iconic building in Bahrain Bay.

The agreement to this effect will see a study hall named after the United Insurance Company at the BIBF’s new state-of-the-art building, with an expected inauguration later this year to serve the training needs of the financial sector in the Kingdom of Bahrain and beyond.

This partnership will further enhance UIC’s strategic position in the Insurance space, as a major supporter of human capital development in the Kingdom’s insurance sector.

The national project comes in line with the BIBF’s expansion plans in and outside Bahrain to further accommodate the growing demand and improve the learning experience, representing an important milestone in the development of Bahrain’s financial services sector and the national economy.

On this occasion, the Manager of United Insurance Company Ms. Maysa Al Kooheji stated, “We strongly believe in the importance of supporting education and developing local talents and competencies, especially in the field of Insurance.”

She also added, “This initiative comes in line with our vision to prepare well-educated generations, with specialised skills to continue advancing the Insurance sector in Bahrain.”

“We look forward to a successful collaboration with the BIBF toward achieving our common goals and contributing to enhancing Bahrain’s strategic position in the field of training and human capital development.” Ms. Al Kooheji concluded.

On his part, BIBF Director, Dr. Ahmed Al Shaikh said, “We are delighted to have the support of the United Insurance Company, as a leading company in offering innovative Insurance services in the Kingdom, that is committed to building the Insurance workforce of tomorrow.”

He also added, “This national project represents a pivotal stage in the journey of human capital development, providing the right training infrastructure for learners to support various sectors in Bahrain and the national economy as a whole.”

The construction on the BIBF’s new landmark commenced earlier last year with a total structural area of 25,000 square meters that stands as a luxury waterfront development; providing the latest technologies, cutting-edge facilities and digital innovation to ensure the highest standards of efficiency, and a unique learning experience.
