REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE
Loan Syndications continued to be the key
contributor to the unit's revenues. In 2022, it
registered yet another outstanding performance
in terms of transaction value and volume on both
primary and secondary markets as it capitalised
on opportunities provided by high levels of
regional liquidity.
Among the highlights of 2022, the unit announced
a strategic alliance with BNY Mellon aimed at
accelerating the growth of the UAE's capital
markets. The collaboration unites BNY Mellon's
global footprint with Emirates NBD's regional
expertise to provide clients, across the UAE and
globally, access to world-leading capital markets
infrastructure and technology.
During 2022, the launch of Emirates NBD
Securities' dedicated end-to-end IPO subscription
website and digital onboarding platform for
Emirates NBD Securities has significantly
enhanced accessibility to regional capital markets
and improved the customer investment journey.
The end-to-end digital process allows
Emirates NBD customers to instantly acquire a
DFM NIN and Emirates NBD Securities brokerage
account, enabling them to participate in the IPOS
and trade on the UAE exchanges.
Transaction Banking
Transaction Banking's exceptional growth in 2022
was bolstered by its strong and increasingly
innovative digital solutions covering Trade Finance,
Supply Chain Finance and Cash Management.
The unit offers market leading digital banking
suite that covers Virtual Accounts, API banking
and Dynamic Discounting, along with the
newly launched 'API Souq' and merchant
acquiring through Emirates NBD Pay. As part
of C&IB's commitment to continuously
improve its seamless client experience and
solutions, Transaction Banking launched
"Emirates NBD API Souq" in 2022. The interface
represents the region's most comprehensive
financial API developer portal on the market,
providing FinTechs, developers and corporate
clients with a holistic ecosystem to rapidly
develop innovative financial solutions.
The launch of Emirates NBD Pay further adds to
C&IB's all-inclusive suite of innovative solutions by
enabling businesses to enhance their payment
acceptance capabilities. Emirates NBD Pay enables
clients to accept card payments across multiple
channels including POS machines, payment
gateway, Pay by Link, unified commerce, soft POS
along with unattended kiosks.
Islamic Banking
Emirates NBD Islamic continued to support all
areas of the business in the UAE and KSA,
developing best-in-class Islamic products and
originating and executing Shari'ah compliant
transactions.
In 2022, Emirates NBD Islamic and the
Investment Banking team worked closely on
multiple Sukuks and Islamic syndicated financing
transactions across the region. During the year,
Emirates NBD ISLAMIC ensured full compliance
with Shari'ah Governance regulations issued by
