Merlin Investor took part in Fintech Forward 2024 in Bahrain, a prominent event dedicated to driving digital transformation and innovation within the Kingdom’s financial sector.

The forum convened regional banks, regulators, and fintech leaders to explore how emerging technologies are reshaping financial services and advancing Bahrain’s vision of becoming a leading fintech hub.

Discussions centered on promoting financial inclusion, enhancing digital infrastructure, and encouraging collaboration between traditional institutions and fintech innovators.

For Merlin Investor, with its regional base in Dubai, the event underscored Bahrain’s strategic role as a gateway for fintech growth in the Gulf.

As the country accelerates its digital finance agenda, Merlin sees strong opportunities to support local banks with WealthTech solutions that empower retail investors and boost digital engagement—particularly among younger generations.
