Description
This profile examines the economic interests and ties of Mohammad Hamsho. Unlike many of his contemporary, Mr Hamsho is part of a previous generation of businesspersons that emerged after Bashar Al-Assad assumed the presidency in 2000. Up until 2020, the business enjoyed a high degree of influence within the Syrian business elite, and is even considered to be acting as a front for the President’s brother, Maher Al-Assad. Since then, though, Mohammad Hamsho’s influence seems to have been on a gradual decline.
