Emirates and Sudan Bank IPO witnesses strong investor response
- United Arab Emirates: Tuesday, May 31 - 2005 at 15:05
- PRESS RELEASE
Emirates and Sudan Bank's (ESB) US$28.5 million initial public offering (IPO) has been receiving strong response from investors in UAE, Sudan, Yemen, Jordan, and other GCC states since the IPO launch on May 15, 2005.
Commenting on the IPO, an official at ESB's steering committee, said: "Strong response indicates investors' confidence in the prospects of a well capitalized bank like ESB in a country which is on the threshold of growth unprecedented in the recent past."
Increased oil production in Sudan has contributed to a healthy GDP during the past few years and the Sudanese Government has successfully reduced inflation during this period also. Based on these positive economic indications, Sudan is expected to witness a boom especially after signing the recent peace agreement between the South and North.
