Ratings agency Capital Intelligence (CI) has given Emirates NBD’s financial strength a strong rating of A1 with a stable outlook, reported Al Bayan newspaper, adding that this follows the Bank’s efficient capitalisation, high operational profit, improved liquidity and high market stake, particularly in the emirate of Dubai.
Moreover, the strong support factors and low bad-loan rate have contributed to the rating. CI maintained its long-term credit rating for the foreign currency at A1. Moreover, it highlighted that Emirates NBD is a major player in the local market.
