His Excellency Shaikh Salman bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Minister of Finance and National Economy, emphasized Bahrain’s unwavering commitment to strengthening its investment climate and creating high-value opportunities that support the Kingdom’s economic development journey. These efforts are aimed at driving further progress and prosperity for both the nation and its citizens, in line with the comprehensive development goals led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and closely followed up by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister.
Speaking at the inauguration of PricewaterhouseCoopers’ (PwC) new Regional Center of Excellence in Bahrain, His Excellency highlighted the Kingdom’s dynamic and innovation-friendly investment environment. He noted that Bahrain is home to highly skilled national talent, making it an attractive destination for leading global companies—particularly in the financial and economic sectors—as it aligns with the nation’s forward-looking vision and development objectives.
The opening ceremony was attended by Her Excellency Noor bint Ali Al Khulaif, Minister of Sustainable Development and CEO of the Bahrain Economic Development Board; His Excellency Shaikh Salman bin Ahmed Al Khalifa, Head of the Crown Prince’s Court; and Ms. Maha Mofeez, CEO of Tamkeen, along with several other senior officials.
Shaikh Salman bin Khalifa noted that the expansion of international firms in Bahrain is a clear indicator of growing confidence in the Kingdom’s investment ecosystem. He added that such expansions play a crucial role in generating quality job opportunities for Bahraini nationals, supporting local talent, and advancing skill development in line with labor market needs—all of which contribute to sustainable economic growth.
He further underlined the importance of the professional services sector, alongside other key economic sectors, in bolstering comprehensive development and diversifying income sources. This, he said, further solidifies Bahrain’s position as a leading regional and global financial hub.
