To Whom It May Concern,
Greetings,

Subject: Partial Update on Financial Institution Performance Indicators (KPIs).

Reference is made to the Saudi Central Bank instructions superseded by Circular No. (42,27544) dated 28/04/1443H regarding the performance indicators for complaint processing quality via the "SAMA Muhtam" system.

We wish to inform you that it has been decided to update the target values for the following indicators:

Indicator Name	Customer Satisfaction Rate with Complaint Processing	Percentage of Escalated Complaints Closed in Favor of the Customer After Processing
Target Value	Not less than 80%	Not more than 5%

This takes effect from the first quarter of 2023, while other indicators and their target values remain as stipulated in the instructions referenced in the aforementioned circular. Please note that the Saudi Central Bank will monitor financial institutions' performance against these indicators on a quarterly basis and take regulatory actions against non-compliant entities.

Yours faithfully,
