  • BBK and Ithmaar Holding Sign Acquisition Plans Mou
    BBK and Ithmaar Holding sign acquisition plans MoU MANAMA, BAHRAIN – 14 September 2020 – The Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait (BBK), one of the largest commercial banks in Bahrain, and Ithmaar Holding, the parent of Ithmaar Bank, which operates the largest Islamic retail banking network in Bahrain, signed today (ed note: 14/09/20) a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on the potential acquisition by BBK of Ithmaar Bank’s Bahrain operations as well as specific assets of IB Capital, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ithmaar Holding. The MoU, which was signed by BBK Chief Executive Officer, Dr. AbdulRahman Ali Saif, and Ithmaar Holding Chief Executive Officer, Ahmed Abdul Rahim, who is also the Ithmaar Bank Chief Executive Officer, builds on the joint BBK-Ithmaar Holding statement made on 26 August 2020 announcing initial talks regarding the potential acquisition. The plans, which are subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals, are still in the discussions phase and subject to the completion of due diligence by both parties. When implemented, the plans will significantly expand BBK’s already large operations in Bahrain and add a turn-key, full-service Islamic banking solution, while also bolstering the already well established Ithmaar Bank brand and position it to better capitalize on opportunities for growth.

For almost a decade, the BME100 has served as a benchmark for financial institutions in the W Middle East. The BME100 is a ranking of financial institutions licensed and domiciled within the Middle East region. To be included in this ranking an institution must have its head office based INTRODUCTION in the Middle East and be regulated by one of the region’s central banks. Every year, in the second quarter of the year, we undertake a study of published audited financial reports from financial institutions in the region. This year we have adopted a rigorous new methodology, which you can read about in detail from page six. Because this marks a new chapter for the BME100, we won’t draw on any comparisons to last year’s rankings. Instead, we will simply present the top 100 banks and the 10 fastest-growing banks in the region.
