Customers drawing less than QR7,500 gross monthly salary are not eligible for personal loans, Doha Bank said yesterday. The bank has also decided to trim the amount of a personal loan to 10 times an applicant’s salary. “Moreover, a customer who will be eligible to borrow from us should be from a reputed company,” the bank’s Assistant General Manager for retail banking, Abdul Rahman Mohamed Al Meer, told The Peninsula yesterday. Talking of companies whose employees stood a better chance of accessing loans from Doha Bank, provided they fulfilled the basic criteria, he cited firms listed on the Doha Securities Market or those in the government and quasi-government sectors. http://thepeninsulaqatar.com/Display_news.asp?section=Local_News&subsection=Qatar+News&month=February2009&file=Local_News200902041445.xml
