Financial targets were met, strategic milestones were reached, and the Group’s capital and liquidity positions stood stronger at the end of the year. The Group’s net profit reached US$193 million at the end of 2017, compared with the US$183 million reported in the previous year, growing by 6%. Operating income increased to US$869 million (2016: US$865 million) on a headline basis, but improved by 7% to US$873 million (2016: US$816 million) on a normalised basis aer adjusting for currency hedges in Banco ABC Brazil. Operating expenses were US$462 million (2016: US$436 million), mainly reflecting sustained investments into the Group’s core strategy projects. One major strategic action adopted in 2017 was the realigning of our global Wholesale Banking and Treasury businesses across geographies, products and clients. This will enable our Wholesale Bank to improve returns and enhance our services to our clients across our footprint. With this business reorientation, the Bank was able to see immediate fruits. Our International Wholesale Banking and Treasury businesses raised revenues on a combined basis, growing client-led activity to encourage repeat business. We were once again ranked number one among syndicated loan lead managers in MENA in terms of the number of deals arranged, while Islamic Finance enjoyed a successful year, taking a lead role in four Sukuk issuances as well as six major syndicated loan deals. As part of our plan to strengthen our geographic footprint, the representative office of the Bank in Singapore was upgraded to a fully-fledged branch, positioning us for greater business initiatives in Asia. Likewise, the opening of a branch in the Dubai International Financial Centre reinforced our coverage capabilities in this important market. Meanwhile, Bank ABC in Europe and our branch in New York have stepped up their contributions to our cross-border and cross-product global business flows. Reflecting on our commitment to provide a better, easier and seamless customer experience, the Bank initiated a comprehensive digital strategy, implementing a new online banking platform in both Jordan and Egypt for retail banking, strengthening our delivery to customers in our key MENA subsidiaries. In addition, a digital banking payments platform for the Group’s corporate clients was also launched during the year. Our focus on the organisational health of the Bank remains unabated. We continued to invest in areas such as compliance, risk management, balance sheet management, Group IT, cyber security and auditing. A new Governance- Risk-Compliance approach was introduced to provide greater efficiency. Moreover, a Group Asset Quality Review Function was created which will be dedicated to performing loan and asset quality reviews across the Group. This structure will further streamline Group Audit responsibilities along best practices in the industry. Although encouraging signs of a relative respite has recently been witnessed in our core markets, most of 2017 had been dominated by the ripple effects of the turmoil of past years. Multiple challenges existed in MENA – including budgetary pressures, currency devaluations and regulatory restraints. Moreover, political uncertainty in Brazil was prevalent, coupled with lingering pressures on assets quality. Against such headwinds, our subsidiaries exhibited remarkable resilience and have maintained steady profitability. We continue to place strong emphasis on our capital ratios, keeping them at a robust level. Our Basel III capital adequacy ratio (CAR) and Tier 1 ratio at the end of the year stood at 18.7% and 17.7% respectively, being higher than most of our peers. At 3.5%, the Group ratio of non-performing loans to gross loans showed improvement, reducing from 4.1% at end 2016 on a headline basis. In fact, the NPL ratio for 2017 would show additional reduction to 2.6% (2016: 3.2%) when adjusted to take account of legacy loans. Similarly, customer deposits at the end of the year were US$16,755 million, up from US$14,270 million in 2016, and loans and advances were at US$15,329 million (2016: US$14,683 million). 16 Directors’ Report It is again a testimony to the Bank’s balance sheet strength and the good management of our business that despite the challenging financial and economic environment that still exists in key markets, ABC has retained its Standard & Poor and Fitch agency investment rating at BBB-. In addition, Bank ABC received the prestigious recognition of Bank of the Year 2017 in Bahrain by the Banker Magazine, acknowledging our industry leadership and further affirming the strength of our business model. Looking forward to 2018 and beyond, the recovery in global and regional markets will provide wider prospects for the Group’s business and growth plans.

  • Dividend Announcement: Is It a Good News to the Bahrain Bourse?
    International Journal of Economics and Finance; Vol. 6, No. 12; 2014 ISSN 1916-971X E-ISSN 1916-9728 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Dividend Announcement: Is It a Good News to the Bahrain Bourse? Batool K. Asiri1 1 College of Business Administration, University of Bahrain, Bahrain Correspondence: Batool K. Asiri, College of Business Administration, University of Bahrain, Bahrain. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 15, 2014 Accepted: September 29, 2014 Online Published: November 25, 2014 doi:10.5539/ijef.v6n12p228 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijef.v6n12p228 Abstract This paper presents a study of 157 dividend announcements made by 40 companies listed in the Bahrain Bourse and an examination of the relationship between dividend announcements and the stock market. The study lasted from 2004 to 2013, and the results indicate that investors have gained cumulative abnormal returns that average at 2.29 percent within the 30-day periods before and after the dividend announcement. Moreover, the findings have revealed that investors gained approximately 0.45 percent of the market value on all stocks that had increasing dividends; therefore, it can be reasonably concluded that, when announced to the public, dividend increases promote a positive message about a company’s future growth and the promise of sustained cash flow. Alternatively, it could be seen as the Bahrain Bourse is inefficient in a semi-strong form. The study further highlights that abnormal returns gained by investors tend to vary across sectors. In general, the findings of this study fail to provide significant evidence in support of the dividends irrelevancy theory; on the contrary, they indicate that dividend payments act as positive signals that assure investors of steady cash flow and substantial future earnings.
