S&P reaffirms ICIEC's AA- financial strength and issuer credit rating with Stable outlook
Jeddah — The Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit (ICIEC), a Shariah-based multilateral insurer and member of the Islamic Development Bank Group, has marked another significant milestone with the reaffirmation of its "AA-" long-term issuer credit and financial strength rating by Standard & Poor's (S&P), with a stable outlook. This rating remains the highest within its peer group globally. The reaffirmation underscores ICIEC's solid credit profile with robust financial strength and low credit risk. S&P expects ICIEC to continue expanding its business operations while maintaining robust levels of capital adequacy, exceptional liquidity buffers, and steadily increasing profitability. The rating report reconfirms ICIEC's Enterprise Risk Profile (ERP) as 'strong' under S&P's Multilateral Lending Institutions (MLIs) criteria, underpinned by the corporation's supportive shareholder base, strong Preferred Creditor Treatment (PCT), and unique policy role of conducting all business in a Shariah-compliant manner. Moreover, for the second year, S&P assesses ICIEC's Financial Risk Profile (FRP) as 'very strong' under its insurance criteria, as ICIEC's capital adequacy shows a significant buffer above the 99.99% confidence level, as measured by its insurers' risk-based capital model. Additionally, the Corporation maintains exceptional liquidity, reaffirming its upscaled financial strength. ' sincerely congratulate the Member States, His Excellency the Chairman and distinguished Members of the ICIEC Board of Directors, and the dedicated Staff for their unwavering commitment and sustained achievements." said Dr. Khalid Khalafalla, CEO of ICIEC. " Aligned with the IsDB Group's strategic direction, we reaffirm our deep commitment to supporting Member States through advancement of Islamic finance and key development priorities, including green financing, ESG integration, and food security. ICIEC will continue to play an integral role in implementing the Group's strategy in the years ahead." added Dr. Khalid. The reaffirmation of the "AA-" highlights ICIEC's strong financial position, prudent risk management, and sound governance practices. It also underscores the Corporation's ability to navigate complex global challenges and its commitment to supporting sustainable economic development in member states. About The Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit (ICIEC): As a member of the 'AAA' rated Islamic Development Bank (IsDB), ICIEC commenced operations in 1994 to strengthen economic relations between OIC Member States and promote intra-OIC trade and investments by providing risk mitigation tools and financial solutions.

Talabat relaunches riders vending machine initiative for the second year in a row
Kuwait: As part of its summer campaign for riders and broader commitment to their wellbeing, talabat, the region's leading on-demand online ordering and delivery platform, has relaunched its 'Vending Machines for Summer Relief' initiative for the second consecutive year. With temperatures on the rise, an exclusive vending machine has been installed in a high-traffic rider zone, offering talabat riders access to essential hydration and light snacks to help them stay safe, nourished, and energized on the job. This initiative reflects talabat's continued efforts to provide on-the-ground, people-first solutions that support rider health and safety all year long, especially during summer. Commenting on the initiative, Bader Al-Ghanim, Vice President and Managing Director of talabat Kuwait, said: 'After receiving positive feedback from riders last year, we're excited to reintroduce this initiative for the second year in a row as part of our summer campaign for the riders. It's designed to support their health, comfort, and efficiency. We've strategically placed a vending machine that provides riders with quick and easy access to water, refreshments, and snacks — all free of cost — to help them stay hydrated and well-nourished during their working hours." To further strengthen its rider support initiatives, the company continues to invest in rider safety and education, offering regular multilingual workshops and training sessions in collaboration with government bodies and leading institutions in Kuwait. These sessions cover key topics including traffic regulations, vehicle safety, and health tips to help riders manage blood pressure and sugar levels during their shifts. By equipping riders with this knowledge, talabat aims to ensure they adopt healthy coping approaches to the job requirements. Building on the success of last year's rollout, talabat remains committed to enhancing its summer campaign for riders and other rider-focused efforts that reflect its long-term corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy. With initiatives like these, talabat continues to set a benchmark for how companies can support those at the heart of the on-demand delivery ecosystem through inclusive, human-centered programs that prioritize health, safety, and wellbeing in this fast-paced line of work.
