PROUD HISTORY NBAD was founded in 1968 by Emiri decree of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, then ruler of Abu Dhabi and visionary founder of the UAE. NBAD was Abu Dhabi’s first bank and has played a formative role in building the country’s financial system, from facilitating the issuance of the Dirham as the UAE’s currency to helping launch Abu Dhabi’s stock exchange. Across the UAE, NBAD now has 113 branches, from the centre of Abu Dhabi to the Northern Emirates. It was also the first UAE bank to expand overseas, starting in Cairo in 1975, followed by expansion to Khartoum in Sudan and Muscat in Oman, and soon afterwards to London in 1977 and Paris in 1979. Now NBAD is over 45 years old, with a strong domestic base and a growing international presence.
