The unparalleled success of the program has greatly enhanced Doha Bank’s profile and market reputation and contributed to its excellent overall positioning within the banking landscape in Qatar and the region.”

Dr. Seetharaman added: “Doha Bank has announced more than 35 millionaires, 2000 winners and QR 95 million in prizes throughout the past 11 years. This year it’s even more exciting with a bonanza of cash and in-kind prizes to be rewarded every month to AL DANA account holders.

He added, “In all, the 2015 campaign will give away 510 prizes and make millionaires out of at least 6 more Al Dana customers, and the exciting prizes up for grabs in the ‘new customer’ sweepstakes promise to further encourage residents to be a part of Qatar’s best-rewarding savings program.”
