The Palestine Monetary Authority issued Circular No. 157 (2012) to formally notify all Palestinian banks of the official renaming of Al-Rafah Bank for Financing Small Enterprises to The National Bank Company. This regulatory notice mandates that all banking records, communications, and operational references be updated to reflect the new corporate identity. The change was effective as of the circular's issuance date on November 21, 2012.
