#بنك_الأمل_للتمويل_الأصغر_يصل_إلى_القائمة_النهائية_لجوائز_PAY360_العالمية_2026
تأهل بنك ��لأمل للتمويل الأصغر إلى القائمة النهائية لجوائز PAY360 Awards 2026 ضمن فئة "أفضل مبادرة في الشمول المالي والمسؤولية البيئية والاجتماعية والحوكمة (Best Initiative in Financial Inclusion & ESG)"، في إنجاز دولي جديد يعكس ريادة البنك في تعزيز الشمول المالي والاستدامة في اليمن.
وتُعد جوائز PAY360 من أبرز الجوائز العالمية المتخصصة في قطاع المدفوعا�� والتقنيات المالية، حيث تنظمها جمعية المدفوعات (The Payments Association) في المملكة المتحدة لتكريم المؤسسات التي تقدم حلولًا مبتكرة وأثراً ملموساً في القطاع المالي.
وجاء اختيار بنك الأمل ضمن قائمة تضم عدداً من المؤسسات والشركات الدولية الرائدة، من بينها Ripple وPaymentology وThunes وMoney Carer وNationwide Building Society، الأمر الذي يؤكد المكانة المتنامية التي يحظى بها البنك على المستوى الدولي في مجالات الشمول المالي والتمويل المستدام.
ويكتسب هذا الإنجاز أهمية خاصة في ظل المنافسة القياسية التي شهدتها دورة عام 2026، والتي وصفتها الجهة المنظمة بأنها الأقوى منذ إطلاق الجائزة، حيث خضعت المشاركات لعملية تقييم مستقلة أجراها خبراء ومتخصصون في قطاع المدفوعات والخدمات المالية، مما يعزز من قيمة هذا الترشح وم��داقيته.
ويعكس هذا التأهل التقدير الدولي للجهود التي يبذلها البنك في توسيع الوصول إلى الخدمات المالية، وتمكين الفئات الأقل حصولاً عليها، وتطوير حلول مالية مبتكرة تسهم في تعزيز الصمود الاقتصادي والتنمية المستدامة رغم التحديات التشغيلية والاقتصادية التي تواجهها اليمن.
ومن المقرر الإعلان عن الفائزين خلال حفل جوائز PAY360 الذي سيُعقد في العاصمة البريطانية لندن بتاريخ 7 أكتوبر 2026، بحضور أكثر من 950 من القيادات التنفيذية وصناع القرار في قطاع المدفوعات والخدمات المالية على مستوى العالم.
ويمثل هذا الإنجاز محطة جديدة في مسيرة بنك الأمل نحو تعزيز حضوره الدولي وترسي�� دوره كمؤسسة مالية رائدة تسهم في بناء مستقبل أكثر شمولًا واستدامة للمجتمعات التي تخدمها.
#AlAmalMicrofinanceBank_Shortlisted_for_Global_PAY360_Awards_2026
Al-Amal Microfinance Bank (AMB) has been shortlisted for the PAY360 Awards 2026 in the category of Best Initiative in Financial Inclusion & ESG, marking a new international achievement that reflects the Bank’s leadership in advancing financial inclusion and sustainability in Yemen.
The PAY360 Awards are among the world's most prestigious awards in the payments and fintech industry. Organized by The Payments Association in the United Kingdom, the awards recognize organizations that deliver innovative solutions and create measurable impact within the financial sector.
AMB was selected alongside a distinguished group of leading international organizations and companies, including Ripple, Paymentology, Thunes, Money Carer, and Nationwide Building Society. This recognition highlights the Bank’s growing international standing in the fields of financial inclusion and sustainable finance.
This achievement is particularly significant given the record level of competition witnessed in the 2026 edition, which the organizers described as the strongest and most competitive since the awards were established. Entries underwent an independent evaluation process conducted by experts and practitioners from the payments and financial services industry, further reinforcing the value and credibility of this recognition.
The shortlisting reflects international recognition of the Bank’s efforts to expand access to financial services, empower underserved populations, and develop innovative financial solutions that promote economic resilience and sustainable development despite the operational and economic challenges facing Yemen.
The winners will be announced during the PAY360 Awards Ceremony, scheduled to take place in London on 7 October 2026, with the participation of more than 950 senior executives and decision-makers from the global payments and financial services industry.
This achievement represents another milestone in AMB’s journey toward strengthening its international presence and reinforcing its role as a leading financial institution committed to building a more inclusive and sustainable future for the communities it serves.

يتصدّر دور الغابات المشهد اليوم في #COP30.
هل تعلمون أن 53 مليون شخص يعتمدون على الغابات الاستوائية المعرضة للخطر للحصول على المياه والغذاء والقدرة على الصمود؟
يمكن أن تساهم مضاعفة الاستثمارات في تعزيز النمو ومواجهة تغيّر المناخ وفقدان التنوع البيولوجي: https://t.co/iVHDZNlyy5
Yemen’s displaced communities bear the brunt of a crisis they did not create.
At #COP30, frontline voices must not be left behind. We urge:🌍
Climate action and mobilizing finance for frontline communities to achieve climate justice.

نشارك في قمة COP30 بمدينة بيليم في جمهورية البرازيل الإتحادية لإيصال صوت المعاناة التي تواجهنا جميعاً جراء الأزمة و الحرب التي زادتها انعكاسات التغييرات المناخية ..
و خلال السنوات الأخيرة وفي ظل الأزمة و الحرب ضربت موجات من المنخفضات الجوية و التقلبات المناخية القاسية، وخلفت أضرارا جسيمة على البيئة والبنية التحتية وسبل عيش المواطنين مما فاقم من تدهور أوضاعهم الهشّة أصلاً.
لذا فإننا نحرص في هذا القمة على عرض التحديات المناخية التي تواجهها بلادنا ، و ندعو إلى دعم وتمويل مشاريع التكيّف و الإصحاح البيئي وإعادة التأهيل المستدام، و نأمل الاستفادة من التجارب الدولية الناجحة في الحد من آثار التغيّر المناخي.
إن مواجهة التحديات المناخية لم تعُد خياراً مؤجلاً، بل مسؤولية مشتركة تتطلب شراكات فاعلة و تمويلاً وافياً و التزاما بمسار استراتيجي مدمج مع جهود التسوية السياسية و إعادة الإعمار و بناء قدرات المجتمعات المحلية و تأهيل مؤسسات الدولة لضمان حلول شاملة و عادلة و تنمية مستدامة لمستقبل أجيالنا القادمة بإذن الله تعالى.
Yemen’s displaced communities bear the brunt of a crisis they did not create.
As the world looks to #COP30, we urge:
🌍Scale up climate finance to include those who live with the climate crisis every day.
💧Protect frontline communities.
⚖️Deliver Climate Justice.
Our ICCIDPY findings show that climate shocks and disasters have exacerbated displacement and vulnerability in Yemen.👇

💰 Climate action & financing are crucial to prevent repeated displacement.

As #COP30 spotlights climate action, let’s not forget climate-displaced communities.
Our study “At the Mercy of the Climate: The Impact of Climate Change on IDPs in Yemen” shows how climate shocks force repeated displacement of 500,000 in 2024 alone: https://t.co/BAc10G6u8z

"In fragmented political contexts, climate activism is a way to contest both ecological harm and the structures of violence and neglect that allow it to persist. Despite these challenges, some civil society organizations and researchers are working to reframe the national conversation on climate and environmental governance.
One prominent organization, Holm Akhdar for Environmental Consultancy @HolmAkhdarC, highlighted that more than half of Yemen’s internally displaced people have been forced to adopt harmful coping mechanisms (such as selling livestock or reducing food intake) because of worsening extreme weather. The group called for the establishment of a national disaster response plan and greater international engagement.
Environmental researcher Maha Al-Salehi @maha_salehi has issued similarly ambitious proposals, advocating for the revival of Yemen’s suspended Water Law, modernization of irrigation techniques, and the declaration of a national climate emergency. She points to the collapse of groundwater systems as a case study in institutional failure, emphasizing the lack of regulatory oversight and the disappearance of state authority.
