NCB Capital wins prestigious fund awards

NCB Capital, Saudi Arabia’s largest investment bank and a leading regional wealth manager, has been named winner in two categories at the second MENA Fund Manager annual performance awards. The bank is Saudi Asset Manager of the year and its AlAhli Saudi Mid Cap fund is the Saudi Equity Fund of the Year.
