The Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB) has wrapped up its participation in the 14th edition of Youth City 2030, held at Exhibition World Bahrain.
The CBB’s involvement from August 17 to 21 was part of the GCC Mulim Campaign, an investor awareness initiative aimed at boosting financial literacy and encouraging investments in capital markets.
Representatives from the bank’s Capital Markets Supervision Directorate, Rayyan Ali and Zahra Mahfoodh, highlighted the GCC Smart Investor Award and encouraged young participants to submit creative ideas on various financial concepts through photography, drawing, or writing.
CBB Capital Markets Supervision director Ali AlAamer said the bank was proud to support an initiative that empowers youth to drive future growth. “At CBB, we are committed to initiatives across the financial sector that aim to empower our youth to lead the kingdom’s future,” he said.
Launched in 2022 by securities authorities across the GCC, the Mulim Investor Awareness Programme seeks to raise awareness about financial transactions and investing through various initiatives, including the Gulf Investor Week and the GCC Smart Investor Award.
