KUWAIT: Burgan Bank announced its latest winner of the semi-annual draw of the Kanz account, during a recent event held at 360 Mall. At the center of the festivities, Mohammad Hassan Zeinalpour was crowned as the winner of the KD 500,000 cash prize, in the presence of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry representative and representatives of Burgan Bank’s Executive Management.

Presented by prominent media figure Dana Al-Owaisi, the event featured a competition that called on the audience to guess the number of coins in the Kanz treasure chest for a chance to enter the cash draws. The festivities also included the introduction of Kanz’s new song, "The Call That Changed My Life”, by the creative artist Khaled Al-Muthafar, which was met with public enthusiasm and wide engagement for its catchy tune and memorable lyrics that center on Kanz’s ability to turn its winners’ lives around.

"We are delighted to announce our latest semi-annual draw winner as Kanz account upholds its success for a third year,” Yousef Al-Ali, Manager - Products and Segments at Burgan Bank, said. "On behalf of the Burgan family, I would like to congratulate Mohammad Hassan Zeinalpour on winning the KD 500,000 cash prize, and I wish all of our Kanz customers better luck in the upcoming Kanz draws, especially the annual draw, which will grant our third millionaire winner a life-changing KD 1,500,000 cash prize.”

He noted that Kanz is among Burgan Bank’s most special draw accounts, thanks to its regular year-long cash prizes, whether the monthly KD 2,000 prize awarded to 20 winners, the semi-annual KD 500,000 prize granted to one customer, or the annual KD 1,500,000 prize allocated to a single lucky winner. This comes as part of the Bank’s committed strategy for rewarding its loyal customers with life-changing experiences and a progressive banking journey that is line with their modern lifestyles and financial aspirations.

"Through the Kanz account and its innovative benefits, Burgan Bank seeks to raise awareness about the importance of saving and adopting a sound and balanced financial plan that guides our customers’ spending,” Al-Ali added. "Kanz is also a testament to the Bank’s commitment to reinforcing financial literacy across Kuwaiti society, in line with its continued support of the banking awareness and financial literacy campaign, ‘Let’s Be Aware’ (Diraya), which was launched by the Central Bank of Kuwait and the Kuwait Banking Association, with the support of Kuwait’s local banks.”

To enter the Kanz draws, existing or new customers must have a Kanz account with a minimum balance of KD 200 – or the equivalent in USD, GBP, or EUR. Upon meeting the entry requirements, every KD 25 counts as a draw entry.
