Regional News - all that's new in the local industry. Includes results, new products, mergers, new technology, staff changes, awards etc.
High level interviews with leading figures in the local industry
Global News - banking barriers are falling, therefore Middle East players need to know what's happening in the global arena. This section includes news from the global players and global analysis of breaking news.
IT - A news driven section featuring the latest developments in IT, and how various (local and global) banks and institutions are integrating IT to their advantage.
Special features, such as money laundering, trends, and special articles such as "When will Internet banking really take off?" "Are call centres worth the investment?" "Should there be a Euro style currency across the Arab nations?"
Cards - A chance for readers to find out what the competition is doing, what's available, new card production methods, smart cards
Special reports - A number of features looking at different banking operations, new technologies, and case studies.
Profiles - Studies of different banks and institutions.
Country focus - Every month, Banker Middle East will lift the lid on a different country to see what the major players are doing.

As well as this, Banker Middle East will feature comment and analysis from key players.

Banker Middle East is set to become an essential information tool for busy Middle Eastern banking executives. It will act as a voice for the industry, drive the pan-Arab banking industry forward and act as a mouthpiece for the Central Banks of the region.

Publisher Dominic de Sousa said: "Market reaction to this launch issue has so far been fantastic. This magazine is unique, and our team is putting all its efforts into making this an extremely high quality, useful, entertaining and enlightening publication."

"Bahrain, as the traditional financial hub of the region, seemed like the ideal location to launch the new magazine, and what better event to launch it at than such a high level, advanced event as this Internet Banking conference."

"The Year 2000 is a great time for us, and a fantastic time for this region. We are enormously positive about the future for our business and the publishing industry in the Gulf," added de Sousa.

Banker Middle East is guided by an editorial advisory board, made up of regional bankers, in order to ensure the content is appropriate, correct and timely.
