Referring to SAMA circular No. BCI/150, dated 29/6/1422 H, No. BCI/97, dated 13/03/1424 H, No. BCS/207 dated 05/03/1430H, No. BCI/15969, date 03/07/1431H and all previous circulars concerning the mechanisms of disclosure of banking data and information, and the emphasis of adhering to not providing any information about customers except after addressing SAMA and obtaining a non-objection.

In the interest of ensuring that banks comply with the directive not to provide any local or foreign entities (such as international payment companies) with information about customers' transactions and personal data, based solely on the presence of the logo of those entities on some banking products, including bank cards, SAMA wishes to emphasize the necessity of adhering to the aforementioned circulars. It is imperative not to disclose customers' data and transactions except after consulting SAMA and obtaining its approval.

For information, we hope to fully comply with the aforementioned and instruct the relevant administration to verify that the various departments and branches of the bank adhere to its content and provide feedback within a month from its date.
