The UAE’s fourth largest bank has seen its star ascend in the last few years, posting a solid 11 per cent growth on its asset base throughout 2010 and 2011. The company is listed in Abu Dhabi.
Owned by several sons of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, First Gulf Bank was established in 1979 in Ajman and provides financial services across the UAE.
The bank’s current CEO, Andre Sayegh, has voiced ambitions to expand the banks’ operations into other GCC countries and push into Asia too.
