Sharjah — United Arab Bank (UAB) has opened three new branches in Dubai, bringing its total number of branches in the UAE to 30.

A ribbon cutting ceremony — led by UAB’s Tony B.

The launches are part of UAB’s drive to expand its footprint in Dubai.

Paul Trowbridge, chief executive officer at UAB said: “The bank’s strategy of prudent and ambitious growth in service delivery infrastructure continues to yield robust results. We strive to provide accessibility and convenience to our growing customer base and we will continue to open traditional high street banking branches in vital commercial and residential areas to cater our customers’ needs with best in class products”. In addition, the bank has seven branches in Sharjah, eight in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, two in Ras Al Khaimah, one in Ajman, and one in Fujairah.

Yusra Al Baqi said: “UAB’s customer strategy revolves around attracting new clients and we will strive to be on our customers’ doorsteps through our prime and prominent locations. Retail banking customers in the UAE today seek choice and convenience in where, how and when they access banking services.” business@khaleejtimes.com
