Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB) has won the best Islamic Bank Award at the Banker Middle East Awards 2007. This is the third consecutive year that DIB has won the award, said a press release on Tuesday.
DIB was chosen among fierce competition from a list of the biggest global financial institutions at a gala ceremony organised by Banker Middle East Magazine that was held recently in Doha, Qatar.
DIB Senior Vice President, Abdullah Al Hamli accepted the award on behalf of the bank management. Saad Abdul Razak, CEO of DIB Group, said: "Winning the best Islamic Bank Award for the third year in a row is a triumph for the bank's staff and management, and confirms the strength not only of the bank's offering to customers but also its overall direction and strategy."
DIB has been continuously awarded the highest international accolades, including 'Best Islamic Bank in the Middle East' by Euromoney Magazine, in addition to a host of other prestigious regional and international awards.
He added: "Being a leader in Islamic banking is a great achievement, yet attaining this status amid the increasing competition in the sector is a far greater accomplishment."-PR
