About Dubai Islamic Bank

The bank reported Dhs 1.56 bn in net profit for the year ended December 31, 2006, rising by 47 per cent compared to Dhs1.06 bn for the year ended December 31, 2005. The profit for 2006, including depositors' profits, stood at Dhs 3.3 bn, an increase of 65 per cent compared to Dhs 2 bn for the year ended December 31, 2005. Total assets in 2006 reached to Dhs 64.5 bn reporting an increase of 50 per cent compared to Dhs 43 bn in 2005.

Customer deposits also showed an aggressive growth of 43 per cent over last year, reaching Dhs 47.7 bn in 2006.
DIB recently announced the breaking of another world record by raising US$3.52 bn sukuk for the Nakheel Group. This sukuk adopted a structure never used before in Islamic or conventional banking history. The Nakheel sukuk brings the total sukuk raised by DIB in the UAE to more than US$9 bn (Dhs 33 bn), an unprecedented amount in the history of Islamic banking.
The bank has been proactive in creating partnerships and alliances at both the local and international level. DIB has adopted an aggressive expansion strategy, which started with the establishment of DIB Pakistan Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of DIB. DIB opened its first representative office in Turkey to enhance its access to that market. DIB has acquired 60 per cent of Al Khartoum Bank and is among the parent banks of Emirates and Sudan Bank (ESB). These steps mark DIB's ambitious plans to roll out its operations into regional and international markets as part of its overall strategic plan.
