team players of the Funds Department at Hassans. During dinner, ceremonial silverware was presented by Said Ahmed Cheddadi, the Finance Director at Banque Populaire du Tanger – Tetouan. Sunday saw the Hassans funds team face Banque Populaire in a five-a-side football match. Gibraltar international footballer and associate in the Hassans Funds Team, Aaron Payas, made an appearance for both sides. After a competitive match the bank ran out winners scoring 10 goals to Hassans’ 6. A return leg of the match is scheduled for June, offering Hassans the chance to bring the cup back to Gibraltar. James Lasry commented: “For many of the bankers from Morocco this was their first trip to Gibraltar. They were impressed with the Rock as a tourist destination and the hospitality that was shown by the Gibraltarian people they met. They were also impressed with Gibraltar as a business location, by Gibraltar’s dedication to cross-border business and its global reach as an international finance centre. We look forward to welcoming them back to Gibraltar in the not too distant future”. n
