KIB’s participation in the program comes from its social responsibility program designed to benefit all segments of the community, and especially students of schools and universities. From their end, representatives of the bank took the students through the essence of saving and the different concepts related to the value such as the difference between the “need” to spend and the “desire” to spend, and the between necessities and luxuries in our daily lives in addition to the negative consumer behaviors that people may have. Lecturers also warned of the serious economic consequences that result from over consumption of what others produce without awareness or appreciation which eventually hinders our resources and capabilities.

In addition, KIB’s representatives gave an elaborate explanation about the bank’s diverse Sharia Compliant services and products with emphasis on Habboub Account for children and Rimas Account for ladies that were received with great interest from the students and teachers.

KIB looks forward to enroll future awareness campaigns about the values of saving and other economic and financial values at all schools in Kuwait.
