Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena
A little off topic, but I'll post it any way. It's looking ever so possible now that the Qatar Foundation are going to be buying into troubled Italian bank Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena.
Now how cool, and prestigious will it be if one day Qatar Airways has a credit card with the oldest bank in the world for it's frequent fliers collecting points.
Good luck to you guys.

OT, but as I know your posts on the EK Forum are always helpful and informative, I'll leave the post here for a while

You can't buy prestige.
That being said, a lot of people from the Gulf want to try.
Even if QIA invests in the bank (it'll be a minority share), it doesn't mean there will be QR branded stuff. Look at QIA investments in Barclays or ABC or Volkswagen which haven't yielded any partnerships.
