Qatar Islamic Bank Partners with Visa to Boost Cross-Border B2B Payments

Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) has partnered with Visa to enhance cross-border business-to-business (B2B) transactions. The collaboration involves the integration of the Visa B2B Connect platform, which will enable corporate clients to transfer funds from Qatar to 120 countries in a secure and streamlined manner. The platform is designed to support businesses in conducting international transactions more efficiently, aiming to improve the reliability and security of cross-border payments. QIB's adoption of Visa B2B Connect aligns with its broader strategy to strengthen international payment corridors and provide clients with cost-effective and consistent transfer services. Tarek Fawzi, General Manager, Wholesale Banking Group at QIB, said: 'By leveraging cutting-edge technology and digital advancements, we're able to process account-to-account transfers promptly, helping businesses stay competitive and contributing to the broader economic landscape.' QIB is the first Islamic bank in Qatar to adopt the Visa B2B Connect platform, adding to its existing international money transfer services and expanding its digital payment capabilities. Shashank Singh, Visa's Vice President and General Manager for Qatar and Kuwait, said: 'Visa B2B Connect provides seamless, secure and efficient global money movement solutions for financial institutions and their corporate clients. The solution also supports the Qatar government's efforts to drive digital innovation in the financial and business sector.' International money transfers often involve complexities, but this new network aims to improve transparency and predictability. These features may support better financial planning and strategic decision-making for businesses operating across borders.

Sterling holds its own against stronger dollar, trade optimism lends supports

Sterling ticked higher against the dollar on Thursday, one of the few major currencies to hold its own against the greenback which regained ground after weak U.S. data dragged it lower on Wednesday. The pound was up 0.14% at $1.3574, while against the euro it was up 0.1% at 84.16 pence. Sterling remains a touch away from a more than three-year high hit on May 26, underpinned by ongoing dollar weakness with the pound up over 8% this year. Also helping is the fact the UK is the only country to have struck a trade deal with the U.S and was spared from higher U.S. steel and aluminium tariffs, though analysts question how beneficial those factors are. "The trade deal does matter," said Chris Beauchamp, chief market analyst at IG Group. "You might argue it's not a proper trade deal and that it doesn't solve all the problems, but at least it's a sign that there's a more compelling reason to hold the pound rather than be worrying about the euro," Beauchamp added. The Bank of England (BoE) will meet on June 19 to deliver its next policy decision with market bets firmly on the monetary policy committee (MPC) keeping rates steady. There had been expectations of a further 25 bps cut from the BoE at its June meeting but bets were slashed following weak economic data and a hotter-than-expected inflation read last month. On Tuesday, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said he was sticking with a "gradual and careful" approach to cutting interest rates as global trade policy turmoil increasingly clouds the outlook. Reassurance came on Wednesday with a survey showing Britain's services sector returned to tepid growth last month. (Reporting by Lucy Raitano and Johann M Cherian, Editing by Ed Osmond)
