  • Message from the CEO
    Message from the CEO Dear Colleagues, I hope that most of you have been able to spend some well-deserved time off with your families during the summer months and are ready to support the bank’s continuing growth for the remainder of the year. As expected, the first six months of 2013 have indeed shown solid growth in our loan portfolio across all clients segments, with consumer loans growing at more than 10% and corporate and commercial lending up 7% compared to the end of 2012. It is fair to say that a combination of our focused sales activities and the improved UAE economy have helped us to achieve this positive result. For the rest of 2013, we anticipate further growth of both loan and deposit volumes as well as interest and fee incomes. However, in view of the increasing competition, we need to ensure that we continue to provide top class service, so that we can continue to cross sell our products and become the “Main Banker” for most of our clients. The deliberate efforts to provide our clients with a range of products have been quite successful so far, as the cross-sell ratios especially for Al Dana and other consumer clients have increased significantly. Of course, the increased sales volumes that we have witnessed required the support of departments to improve their productivity and efficiency which, by and large, is happening. The turn-around times are gradually improving for most processes, which is Editorial a key factor in keeping our clients satisfied. Going forward, we will have to continue to Team meet and exceed our clients’ expectations.

  • By Nick Langer in Mid-2009, Dubai Authorities Announced the Arrest Of
    By Nick Langer In mid-2009, Dubai authorities announced the arrest of two top government officials in two separate cases of corruption related to bribes to facilitate the acquisition of properties. The first arrest involved Hashem Dabel, a leading government official from Dubai Holding, the investment arm of the government. Believed to have received around US$270 million, Dabel was arrested for embezzlement and misuse of power in a public post, a crime that has become commonly known in Dubai in the aftermath of its real estate boom. He was indicted on a total of 15 accounts of fraud and abuse of public office. Dabel was released from custody shortly after handing out nearly US$36 million to the government of Dubai, although the prosecutor general’s office said the investigation continues in what is considered one of the biggest cases of corruption in the history of this wealthy nation. During the same year, Mohammad Shareef Abdul Razaq, CEO of Dubai Islamic Bank — owned by the government of Dubai — was arrested in fraud-related charges. In March 2010, he was sentenced to three years in prison and a US$30 million fine. Even though corruption and financial irregularities are normally carried out by the police, both of these arrests were carried out by the financial regulatory committee, personally chaired by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, United Arab Emirates (UAE) prime minister and ruler of Dubai. The regulatory committee has been tasked with investigating suspected corruption cases in the public sector and in companies in which the government is a major stakeholder.
