Al Abed will report to Sobhi Tabbara, global market head in private banking for the Middle East and North Africa, and Abdul Hakeem Mostafawi, CEO of HSBC Qatar.

He joined the bank’s Qatar office in 1999 and since then has worked across digital business services and global operations before moving to wealth and personal banking. In 2004, he joined HSBC’s markets and securities services to become head of corporate sales.

“During his time at HSBC, Ibrahim has developed strong client relationships and gained a reputation within the region as providing valuable counsel during unprecedented times,” Hakeem Mostafawi, said.
 
HSBC has a 67-year history in Qatar, where it offers wealth management, retail, commercial, and global banking, and markets and security services.
