Arab banks union organizes colloquy on credit cards techniques

The Arab Banks Union will organize a colloquy in Morocco next April 23-25 on payment and credit cards techniques.

This meeting will tackle the protection of credit card-effected payments and related legislation.

The Union will initiate new activities throughout 2002 to promote Arab banking actions, the Union Secretary General, Fouad Chaker, said.

Part of its 2002 program, the union will hold several colloquia in various Arab countries. These include a colloquy on new international rules in matters of loans (Libya), a meeting on money laundering (Lebanon), a colloquy on public relations in the banking sector (Jordan), and a colloquy on new trade and banking orientations (Tunisia). The Arab Banking Congress will be held in the United Arab Emirates.
