Salman al-Khalifa, a former top regional banker at Deutsche Bank in the Middle East, is the prime contender to run the $9 billion Bahraini sovereign wealth fund Mumtalakat, two sources familiar with the matter said.
Khalifa, who is a member of Bahrain's royal family, resigned in November as Deutsche's UAE country chief and head of global markets for Middle East and North Africa.
The al-Khalifa family rules Bahrain and many ministerial jobs in the Gulf Arab island kingdom are held by family members.
