BBK, a leader in retail and corporate banking in the Kingdom of Bahrain, has announced the introduction of a comprehensive range of global and Islamic investment solutions through the launch of a new suite of HSBC Mutual Funds, now available to BBK customers as part of the Bank’s Wealth Management services.

This initiative aims to provide investors with direct access to international opportunities for growing their wealth by benefiting from the extensive global asset management expertise of HSBC.

Through this offering, customers gain access to a broad selection of funds that include HSBC Portfolios, HSBC Global Investment Funds, HSBC Islamic Funds and HSBC Global Funds ICAV. The availability of this diversified range of products enhances customers’ ability to build balanced portfolios and tap into global markets through trusted and internationally recognized investment solutions.

Customers can subscribe to these funds by completing the Client Investment Profiling questionnaire through the BBK Mobile App, with the customer’s account required to be funded at the time of application. The minimum investment amount is set at USD 5,000 with the option to increase in increments of USD 1,000. This structure provides investors with flexibility to plan their financial strategies in alignment with both short term and long-term goals. The Bank’s Wealth Management team is also available to support customers with suitable guidance and recommendations to help them select the investment solutions that best match their individual needs.
