QNB Group CEO Abdulla Mubarak al-Khalifa expressed confidence in the global and regional markets' trust in QNB, stating that the strong response reflects the bank's position as a high-quality borrower.

DBS and HSBC also served as syndication coordinators, while Standard Chartered acted as the documentation coordinator, and Mizuho served as the facility agent.",
