As a new bank in the Yemeni market, we believe that the success will never be achieved without strong partnerships. Our new partnership with ICSFS will lead to corporate sustainability and maintain our business growth and economic value in the future. Considering the special circumstances in our region and especially in Yemen, the selection criteria elements for the core-banking software were very critical. Fortunately, ICSFS’ decent reputation and wide experience in Yemen, and other similar markets for both; conventional and Islamic banking, had made the technical selection decision relatively easy for HCB’s management, and outweighed ICSFS as a strategic partner for our new business.
