As of early November, Lord Neil Benjamin Gibson, via SFBBL
AG, successfully completed a creative, limited merger with Trust Investment
Bank Limited, a reputable, full banking institution with headquarters in
Lahore, Pakistan. The transaction resulted in a 10% equity stake as part of the
owner group, including a seat on the Board of Directors.
Trust Investment Bank Limited was the result of an
international travel campaign to further and finalize a number of well-time
business opportunities in Pakistan, specifically the areas of Islamabad, Lahore
and Karachi, having identified that part of the world as “emerging”, and
finally ripe for investment and major development.
"Pakistan is completely misrepresented
to the American and European population through media portrayals showing the
area as undeveloped and antagonistic towards westerners,' Lord Neil Benjamin
Gibson stated during a telephone interview from London. "I
personally can attest to the fact that the cities are completely cosmopolitan,
the highways are modern and the citizens are in no way aggressive to
westerners."
Going back some months, Lord Neil
Benjamin Gibson has openly stated on multiple occasions the growing strengths
in the Pakistani financial markets, and that with the right infrastructure,
Pakistan will most likely become one of the stronger countries for long term
investments and healthy short term gains. The acquisition of Trust Investment
Bank Limited further proves Lord Neil Benjamin Gibson’s commitment toward investing
in Pakistan, gaining the attention of a number of watchful hedge funds and
investment firms, and once again leading the way innovatively.
The partnership with the Trust
Investment Bank, founded in 1992, expands the institution’s current 11 branches
through the country, including a developing branch in Dubai. The bank is an
institutional lending and speculative investment group comprised of more than
40 highly educated managers, offering loans from automotive to agricultural
products. Trust Investment Bank’s portfolio strength lies in its diversity,
making the institution healthy enough for expanding into new markets outside of
Pakistan and into other Middle Eastern countries. Lord Neil Benjamin Gibson’s
involvement reinforces that position and solidifies his faith in the Pakistani
economy.
“The future is bright for Pakistan.
I am extremely pleased to be a part of it and encourage others to look closely
at what this great country has to offer,” concluded Lord Neil Benjamin Gibson.
Lord Neil Benjamin Gibson is an accomplished world
humanitarian and businessman, presently working with SFBBL AG, a Swiss based
company, along with the SEED Foundation, a registered 501(c)3. Collectively
their efforts are to further the lives of impoverished communities through low
cost, shipping container housing along with enhancing the local economy.
