Bahrain Islamic Bank (BisB) recently won the platinum 'Marketing Effectiveness Award' at the Summit International Awards 2020. The award falls under the social media category in which BisB's 'End-to-End Mobile Account Opening through Face ID Authentication' service was recognized.

The award was granted to recognize the social media strategy outlined to launch the End-to-End Mobile Account Opening through Face ID Authentication.

Commenting on the achievement, BisB Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Hassan Jarrar,, stated: 'We are very proud of the latest addition to our record of outstanding achievements, which is reinforced by this internationally acclaimed award.
