International Operations
NBK's international operations has been traditionally contributing up to circa 30% of the Group's
bottom line with the Bank aspiring to increase this contribution.
The Bank generally aims to maintain a majority stake in its subsidiaries or at least maintain a decision
making role.
NBK's international presence is a differentiating factor for the Bank and an extension of the MENA
franchise enabling better service and strengthening client relationships.
Specifically within the MENA region, the Bank is focused on growing its business in existing and new
markets through attracting increased corporate and private customers.
Meanwhile, across the international locations, the Bank's focus is on servicing its private and corporate
customers who are active internationally and growing its business with international companies that
are active in the MENA region.
Within its international network, NBK is focused on managing risks and costs to improve efficiency and
achieve long-term cost savings and productivity gains.
