Gulf Finance House s CEO Quits
MANAMA - Bahrain’s Gulf Finance House, or GFH, said on Wednesday Chief Executive Ahmed Fahour had quit after just five months, a setback for the loss-making bank’s efforts to restructure and find new revenue streams.
GFH said in a statement Fahour had been appointed by the Australian government as managing director at Australia Post and current Group Deputy Chief Executive Ted Pretty had been appointed acting CEO.
“It was a surprise, and sudden,” Pretty told Reuters in a phone interview.
Fahour was appointed chief executive in late July and oversaw a $300 million rights issue in October, and GFH is now planning to build new revenue streams in asset management, investment and commercial banking.
