Over the course of two decades, we have witnessed rapid development and significant growth in the services and products offered by the Bank, which enabled us to expand our client base, which in turn contributed towards strengthening our position in the Islamic banking sector. We have also engaged in strategic partnerships in various business sectors with the aim of elevating our real estate portfolio.
