About

A hugely experienced lawyer, Siddig Hussein has spent time in academic, private practice, legislative and in-house legal roles. As such, he contributes a wealth of experience to Al Rajhi Bank’s collective knowledge-base, and has done so since he joined them over a decade ago in February 2007. He is chief legal advisor to the bank with responsibility for providing legal frameworks and compliance and regulatory procedures for corporate, retail and projects finance both domestically and abroad. Hussein is ideally-placed to formulate the bank’s response to new regulations and compliance norms, having first-hand governmental experience at the UAE Ministry of Labour. Here, he was engaged in ensuring compliance of UAE labour law within the country, and thus has experience in drafting regulations that companies must follow. During this period, Hussein also represented the UAE in free trade area negotiations with other major international actors.
