KFH Promotes Compliance Culture and Internal Audit Awareness
Marking International Internal Audit Awareness Month, Kuwait Finance House (KFH) underscores its firm commitment to the internal audit function as a cornerstone of governance and a driver for achieving the institution’s strategic objectives. As independent, objective discipline, internal audit advances organizational efficiency through proactive risk management, resource optimization, and absolute compliance with professional standards. KFH remains committed to aligning its internal audit framework with both the Central Bank of Kuwait's regulations and global auditing standards. This alignment ensures the bank swiftly adapts to regulatory shifts, strengthens the efficiency of its internal controls, and fosters long-term sustainable growth. To foster a strong internal audit culture and enhance corporate awareness, the bank launched a series of initiatives this month. These included educational emails to employees and introductory videos highlighting how internal audit promotes compliance and risk management, boosting knowledge and encouraging active participation across our workforce. Internal auditing is based on four main pillars: providing the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, and Executive Management with assurance that risks are managed efficiently and controls are working effectively; offering advice on new projects, products, and processes to ensure controls are established from their earliest stages; delivering insight by turning observations into practical recommendations that improve performance; and fostering a commitment to integrity, ethical standards, and a culture of accountability across the entire bank.

KFH Group’s internal audit team comprises highly qualified professionals equipped with specialized certifications, including CPA, CIA, CFE, and CISA. Their diverse experience across banking, financial, and technical operations strengthens the overall quality and efficiency of the bank's audit functions. The celebration of this month serves to emphasize the importance of raising awareness about the role of internal auditing in supporting governance requirements and increasing transparency. KFH continues its efforts to establish internal auditing as an effective strategic tool that protects assets, generates added value, and enhances the bank's position as a leading institution both locally and globally.

This reflects the growing recognition of Sukuk as a reliable and attractive financing instrument supporting the growth and expansion strategies of corporates, governments, and major development projects, while also demonstrating the high level of confidence in KFH and the strength of its financial position. Al-Haddad explained that the Sukuk are perpetual in nature and callable after six years from the issuance date. He added that the transaction builds on KFH’s successful track record, noting that KFH Capital recently arranged several issuances on behalf of the Bank, including a USD 850 million Mudaraba Sukuk issuance in November 2025 aimed at strengthening KFH’s capital base. He noted that KFH Capital was keen to secure balanced, diversified, and comprehensive coverage for the issuance in a manner that reinforces long-term relationships with investors and maximizes participation levels. Al-Haddad added that the issuance represents a valuable addition to KFH Capital’s track record in the Sukuk market and extends several successful transactions arranged by the company, supporting the continued growth and wider adoption of Sukuk instruments. He noted that this reflects the confidence issuers place in KFH Capital’s expertise, capabilities, and institutional strengths, while further reinforcing KFH Group’s leading role in arranging and managing major Sukuk issuances.
