Established in 1930, the Arab Bank has evolved from a small bank into one of the largest financial institutions in the Middle East. Today, the Group has an unmatched Arab banking branch network, the largest worldwide, with over 500 branches in 30 countries spanning five continents.

Our legacy has been to act as an active and leading partner in the socio-economic development of the region; this was derived from the vision which guided the life and achievements of the Bank’s founder, the late Abdul Hameed Shoman, and carried on through his son, the late Abdul Majeed Shoman.

Arab Bank Group works together as one, and will continue to collaborate as a committed team sharing each other’s successes and achievements. Our visions and goals aligned, we choose each of our activities and take the necessary steps to yield the best results for our clients, shareholders, business partners and employees.

With our deep roots, historical and future accomplishments, financial strength, human assets and wide global network, the Arab Bank Group will continue moving forward towards setting new standards of leadership and becoming the leading financial institution of the Arab World, a vision which we very much believe in.
