Commenting on Bank ABC’s digital achievements, Euromoney Researcher, Aylin Junga, said: “Bank ABC has been at the forefront in deploying cutting edge, customer centric digital innovations across the full scope of its portfolio. It continued to make tangible improvements to its digital mobile-only retail bank, ila, including ‘Hassala’ - a digital saving pot, ‘Jamiyah’ - a collaborative saving tool and “Transfer by Mobile Number” - a service facilitating payments without IBAN.

The bank also collaborated with various stakeholders and Central Bank of Bahrain to pilot a flagship digital currency payment product.
