The next step for Qatar's banks is to attract greater numbers of retail customers CBQ has named their such campaign 'Listening, understanding and succeeding.' This trend involves an attempt by both local and overseas banks looking to grab the better margins available from higher-salaried personal customers by offering improved services in standard product categories such as loans, accounts, investments, savings and credit cards. Due to the influx of people of all nationalities into Qatar, personal banking facilities are in great demand.
