With a paid up capital of over US$291 million, we work to proven processes, internationally recognized standards and are true to Shari’a principles, being licensed and regulated by the Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB).The Bank was formed in 2006 by a number of prestigious financial, industrial and commercial partners mainly from the GCC region. The core premise for its creation was an ambition to create a distinguished, progressive, global Shari’a compliant investment bank with its principles firmly rooted in the region.
Today, as the Bank is now established and continues a plan of growth and improvement, its long-term vision is to become not only one of the region's most prestigious investment banks, but also to attain greater recognition and respect within international financial markets.
With increasing numbers of investors choosing to support values-based financial institutions there is no doubt that banks like ours will continue to be in a healthy position. Islamic banking is growing faster than any other banking sector and it is anticipated that by 2010 the value of assets managed by Islamic banks will grow by 33% to $1 trillion.
