Wall Street Bound

 
 

The lack of diversity on Wall Street is a problem. Yet the data is clear. A diversity of people, ideas and backgrounds leads to the best possible outcomes.

By teaching the technical “hard” skills of finance and the “soft” skills of corporate culture, we empower under-represented young adults to achieve beyond their present horizons.

We believe that the urban finance talent of tomorrow, applying those skills in their lives and communities, can become agents of positive change and sustainable economic development.

With such a large distribution and diverse group of readers, Arab News is the first choice among executives in local and foreign financial institutions. Because of its wide readership profile, the paper serves as a much sought-after medium for advertising and regional brand building. With the advent and growing popularity of the Internet as a source of information, the daily's website (www.arabnews.com) gets hundreds of thousands of hits every day from Web surfers worldwide.

Arab News was the first newspaper to provide a Saudi perspective in English on a wide range of national, regional and global issues through its diverse collection of columnists. This content keeps track of the Kingdom's policies and developments in Saudi society. Arab News is printed in color simultaneously at its state-of-the-art facilities in Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam.
