Despite a difficult year for many financial institutions across the GCC – ADCB included – Ala’a Eraiqat ensured that he and the bank took large steps to invest in human capital. A financial literacy programme aimed at young people in cooperation with the Emirates Foundation, and a ‘work from home’ initiative to empower Emirati women are two examples of ADCB’s push to benefit people living in the UAE. Add to this the launch of a new private banking proposition, a partnership with money transfer company Xpress Money, and the launch of an informative website for new expatriates to the UAE and 2016 adds up to a positive one for Eraiqat and ADCB.
