QNB has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Gulf Organisation for Research and Development (GORD) to promote sustainable building practices with the use of the Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS). As part of the agreement, QNB will provide green mortgage promotions to real estate projects seeking green building certifications under the GSAS framework. QNB is the first in the region to apply GSAS metrics as part of its efforts towards sustainable development, and dedication to its customers to always offer innovative solutions through its products and services. This collaboration with GORD will lead to introducing further attractive promotional interest rates for green properties and assets.
