The Bank for Social Development celebrated World Women ' s Day, a day dedicated to honouring women ' s achievements across history and reviewing their successes in all areas. The Bank emphasized that it pays women ' s great attention and leadership and initiatives to increase women ' s contribution to economic and social participation and to encourage employment as well as to empower women and strengthen their leadership role in the sectors.

On this occasion, the Bank reviewed its role in supporting Saudi women through its financial and non-financial programmes, services and initiatives with a view to achieving the Bank ' s goals and directions in social protection programmes, sufficiency and production and increasing women ' s participation in the labour market in order to achieve financial and social inclusion.I'm sorry.

The Bank provided support and empowerment to Saudi women through a number of programmes and services, where the Bank ' s funding for women was more than 13 billion rials, over 300,000 women. The Bank ' s figures in support of women have contributed to the growth of the number of beneficiaries (400 per cent) over the past three years, so that the Bank continues to achieve successes and achievements in strengthening its development role. I'm sorry.

Bank support for women included not only funding and lending but also non-financial services such as incubation, training and capacity-building, through the Department of Empowerment and Development, business incubators and products and the Delhi Business Centre, as well as in collaboration with pilot rehabilitation centres, to reach 60 a thousand beneficiaries in all regions of the Kingdom. I'm sorry.

These efforts come under the support and empowerment of women and the investment of their capacities according to the Kingdom ' s 2030 vision.I'm sorry.
