Business continuity exercise takes place at the Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait

On June 23rd BBK (the Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait) conducted its annual Crisis Management Simulation Exercise. The aim was to invoke the bank-wide business continuity plans to test their effectiveness and to allow the crisis management team to exercise their roles.

This was the third year in succession that this large-scale exercise has been conducted. In previous years it had involved all the executive management team but no board members. This year BBK chairman, Mr Murad Ali Murad, and some other board members also participated, along with over 100 employees from various areas of the bank.

The exercise was managed and coordinated by BBK’s Business Continuity Management & Governance Team.
