Emirates Bank was established 30 years ago through a decree issued by HH Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum under the name Union Bank of the Middle East, which was later renamed Emirates Bank International, following its merger with Dubai Bank Ltd and Emirates National Bank Ltd.

Emirates Bank's range of products and services encompasses conventional and Islamic commercial banking, investment services, property development, insurance, credit card and brokerage services. The bank's network covers regional and international markets, including Riyadh, London, Tehran, Mumbai and Singapore. The bank has also established strategic alliances by acquiring a stake in Bank of Beirut and Al Baraka Banking Group.

Emirates Bank has also been active in launching major business initiatives to boost the national economy and has taken part in the financing of the nation's major projects. It also launched the Al Tomooh Scheme for financing young entrepreneurs, as well as supported different educational, philanthropic, sporting and cultural activities.
