Among the issuers, the Dubai International Financial Centre, the Arab Republic of Egypt, the Government of Sharjah, Emirates airline, Noor Bank and Oman Electricity Transmission won awards for their successful sukuk and bond transactions on the international markets.
Dubai Aluminium, Emirates National Oil Company, Stanford Marine, Zakher Marine, Dubai World Trade Centre and Shuaa Energy 1 all won awards for their efforts in the syndicated loan markets. Abdulrahman Al Saleh, director-general of Dubai's Department of Finance, won the award for "Lifetime Achievement and Outstanding Contribution to Middle East Capital Markets".
In a speech to the attendees Al Saleh said: "It is wonderful to see so many of the industry's senior executives in one room, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all stakeholders for bestowing this honour on me."
More than 270 of the Middle East's banking and finance elite attended the awards reception.
