The new Corporate & Investment Banking identity encompasses the division’s market-leading products and solutions, from sophisticated transaction banking and lending services, to capital markets advisory and specialist financing, such as green bonds and loans.
The recent integration of financial markets solutions, which provides investment and risk management services such as hedging and FX advisory, complements the bank’s lending business and enriches its comprehensive product offering for corporates.
Evolving needs

Across the region, ADCB is a key partner for government entities, financial institutions, large corporates, and commercial customers, including SMEs that are playing a growing role in the region’s economic ambitions.
The bank is also using its regional network, including its subsidiary bank in Egypt, to help corporate clients develop cross-border commercial and investment relationships along growing economic corridors.
