CEO FOREWORD

Dear Colleagues,

 

The closing month of 2023 has proven to be a momentous period for the QFC family. I am especially pleased that we finally brought back our annual Majlis, an undoubtedly enjoyable event for everyone involved. Additionally, we unveiled our Strategic Vision 2030 and outlined key initiatives set to unfold in 2024, including our imminent relocation to Lusail, the future financial capital of Qatar.

The excitement extends to our outstanding performance in December and throughout the year. Notably, we welcomed 36 new firms last month, bringing the yearly total to an impressive 326.

As we embark on the new year, we embrace a fresh strategy and core values that will guide our operations, decision-making processes, and interactions with both internal and external stakeholders. This recalibrated outlook is crucial for navigating the ever-evolving business landscape we find ourselves in. While a robust strategy is paramount, true success hinges on each business unit and department playing their respective roles to achieve our 2030 targets.

I am confident that, in keeping with our organisational history, we will work harmoniously towards a unified goal. I extend my gratitude in advance for your commitment and the invaluable efforts you contributed throughout 2023, which were instrumental to our collective success.

 

 

Sincerely,

Yousuf Mohamed Al-Jaida

Chief Executive Officer, Qatar Financial Centre
