Deposits increased sharply, lending expanded at an even faster pace, and corporate banking grew alongside continued expansion in retail banking. Meanwhile, the non-performing loan ratio improved despite the growth in the loan portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="CA8Ih1"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Business expansion and a stronger funding base&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="4H7h1Q"&gt;According to its standalone financial statements, the United Bank&amp;rsquo;s total assets rose 30.8 per cent to EGP 117.01bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 89.49bn at end-June 2025, an increase of EGP 27.53bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="0NaJ0o"&gt;Deposit growth was the main driver of this expansion, with customer deposits rising 31.4 per cent to EGP 91.58bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 69.71bn a year earlier, an increase of EGP 21.87bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="O5w567"&gt;Growth was not confined to a single segment. Retail deposits increased 18.7 per cent year on year to EGP 50.46bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 42.52bn at end-June 2025, an increase of EGP 7.94bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="L4NROV"&gt;Corporate deposits, meanwhile, surged 51.2 per cent year on year to EGP 41.12bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 27.19bn a year earlier, an increase of EGP 13.93bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="tVkG6R"&gt;The corporate segment therefore accounted for the largest share of the increase in the bank&amp;rsquo;s funding base, while retail banking continued to support deposit growth, providing the bank with a larger and more diversified funding base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="MTfjw6"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Beyond funding: Accelerating credit growth&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="yPYgcf"&gt;The expansion in funding extended beyond financial position growth, translating directly into stronger lending activity. The United Bank&amp;rsquo;s customer loan portfolio grew 42.6 per cent year on year to EGP 49.63bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 34.79bn at end-June 2025, an increase of EGP 14.84bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="7tS6cr"&gt;Loan growth consequently outpaced deposit growth, lifting the bank&amp;rsquo;s loan-to-deposit ratio to 54.19 per cent at end-June 2026, from 49.91 per cent a year earlier, an increase of 4.28 percentage points.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Wvz0Er"&gt;This shift reflects the deployment of a greater proportion of new funding into lending, strengthening the bank&amp;rsquo;s ability to translate deposit growth into credit expansion and increase its income-generating business.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="47A11q"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Corporates drive expansion as retail lending broadens&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="Mh9vYk"&gt;Corporates segment emerged as the main driver of loan portfolio growth. Corporate loans, including lending to small businesses, rose 48.1 per cent year on year to EGP 38.66bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 26.11bn at end-June 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="8wfA3t"&gt;At the same time, retail loans maintained its upward trajectory, with the portfolio growing 26.3 per cent year on year to EGP 10.98bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 8.69bn a year earlier.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="ClgF0T"&gt;The figures highlight two parallel drivers of credit expansion. While corporate lending accounted for the largest share of the increase, retail loans continued to grow, supporting a more diversified loan portfolio and broadening the bank&amp;rsquo;s lending activities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="hWZj0g"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Loan portfolio expands, quality improves&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="l5Y1o4"&gt;The development of the bank&amp;rsquo;s loan portfolio extended beyond growth in its size to an improvement in credit quality. The non-performing loan (NPL) ratio declined to 0.91 per cent at end-June 2026, from 1.45 per cent at end-June 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="jINWZ0"&gt;This placed the United Bank among the 10 leading banks in Egypt by NPL ratio, well below the banking sector average of 1.8 per cent at the end of the same period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="BFI1xy"&gt;The improvement is particularly notable given that the decline in the NPL ratio coincided with an expansion in the loan portfolio, reflecting the bank&amp;rsquo;s ability to maintain lending growth while improving asset-quality indicators.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="GVewP5"&gt;Credit expansion during Fayed&amp;rsquo;s first year therefore had two dimensions: a substantial increase in lending activity and an improvement in the quality of the growing portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="XXkJov"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Business expansion supports profitability&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="c1P24z"&gt;The expansion in business profile was also reflected in the bank&amp;rsquo;s operating performance during the first half of 2026, when the United Bank recorded a net profit of EGP 1.31bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Wcrdjr"&gt;Net interest income rose 8.9 per cent to EGP 2.71bn in the first half of 2026, from EGP 2.49bn in the corresponding period of 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="uW7HQb"&gt;Net fee and commission income also increased 4.5 per cent to EGP 367.38mn, compared with EGP 351.63mn in the first half of 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="V8NeOz"&gt;The bank also recorded a Return on Average Assets (ROAA) of 2.42 per cent and a Return on Average Equity (ROAE) of 14.87 per cent during the first half of 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 data-id="QeKWWP"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Accelerating growth puts the United Bank among Egypt&amp;rsquo;s fastest-growing banks&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p data-id="gjfgYE"&gt;The strength of the United Bank&amp;rsquo;s growth trajectory became particularly evident in its first-half 2026 results, as the pace of its business expansion emerged as a distinguishing factor in comparisons with its peers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="95FfNu"&gt;This was reflected in First Bank&amp;rsquo;s rankings, where the United Bank topped the lists of the fastest-growing banks by customer deposits and customer loans during the first half of 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="dF9UWa"&gt;It also ranked fourth among the fastest-growing banks by total assets during the period and second among banks listed on the Egyptian Exchange (EGX).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="DiGIQN"&gt;Tarek Fayed&amp;rsquo;s first year at the United Bank therefore marked a clear transformation in the bank&amp;rsquo;s growth trajectory, reflected in a larger business and an improved position among Egypt&amp;rsquo;s fastest-growing banks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Y4T4O3"&gt;As a new year begins, the focus shifts from building momentum to testing the bank&amp;rsquo;s ability to sustain it and translate it into long-term expansion.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/27/13408.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>Growth,loan portfolio,Tarek Fayed,The United Bank,deployment</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13407</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13407</link><title>Suez Canal Bank, NBE and ABK-Egypt lead corporates growth over three years</title><description>Suez Canal Bank topped First Banks ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in Egypt in corporates segme</description><pubDate>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 10:29:51 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-27T10:29:51+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;h3 data-id="1A8GQD"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Suez Canal Bank tops the ranking, driven by strong growth in its corporates segment over the past three years&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="inUOJR"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Egypt&amp;rsquo;s two largest state-owned banks secure top-10 positions, reflecting their growing role in development loans&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="Wis1is"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Islamic banks have limited representation, with just one among the top 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="2BZyV5"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Only four banks outperform the banking sector&amp;rsquo;s 39.1% three-year average CAGR&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="gpipgE"&gt;Suez Canal Bank topped First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in Egypt in corporates segment over the past three years, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 57.8 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="ZYnrZ2"&gt;The bank&amp;#39;s corporate loan portfolio nearly quadrupled to EGP 115.49bn at end-2025, from EGP 29.38bn at end-2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="zI1s4e"&gt;National Bank of Egypt (NBE) ranked second, supported by strong growth in its corporates segment.

Despite an increase in customer deposits to USD 232.25bn at end-June 2026, from USD 228.92bn at end-2025, FAB recorded growth of just 1.5 per cent, the slowest among the top 10 and insufficient to preserve its previous ranking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="1dnRy5"&gt;The reshuffle extended to the next positions, with Saudi National Bank (SNB) advancing from fifth to fourth place, supported by 9.6 per cent growth in customer deposits during the first half of 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Ga7xkf"&gt;Its deposit portfolio reached USD 185.82bn at end-June, compared with USD 169.59bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="x903ue"&gt;The advance pushed Al Rajhi Bank down one place to fifth, despite customer deposits rising 3 per cent to USD 183.21bn at end-June 2026, from USD 177.91bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="QTZDRP"&gt;The contrasting growth rates were sufficient to reverse the two banks&amp;rsquo; positions, highlighting how differences in deposit expansion can reshape the ranking even when both institutions continue to grow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="MEWCBX"&gt;Positions six through eight remained unchanged during the first half of 2026. Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB) retained sixth place, with customer deposits rising 5.4 per cent to USD 143.39bn at end-June 2026, from USD 136.07bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="IxJC9O"&gt;National Bank of Egypt (NBE) remained seventh, with a customer deposit portfolio of approximately USD 128.12bn at end-June 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="9mFIvQ"&gt;Riyad Bank also maintained its position in eighth place, recording 4.8 per cent growth in customer deposits to USD 92.69bn at end-June, compared with USD 88.44bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="uDzr9h"&gt;The final two positions among the top 10 also changed, with Saudi Awwal Bank (SAB) advancing one place to ninth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="RmpkjO"&gt;SAB&amp;rsquo;s customer deposits increased 5.7 per cent during the first half of 2026 to USD 91.07bn at end-June, from USD 86.19bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="wAFjU6"&gt;Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB), meanwhile, slipped from ninth to 10th despite recording 2.1 per cent growth in customer deposits to USD 89.03bn at end-June 2026, compared with USD 87.18bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="8ELezl"&gt;UAE banks accounted for the largest number of institutions in the ranking, with 17 banks collectively holding around 30 per cent of total deposits across the top 100, underscoring the UAE banking sector&amp;rsquo;s substantial weight in the Arab deposit market.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="n4qmoH"&gt;Egypt ranked second by number of participating banks, with 12 institutions collectively accounting for approximately 8.1 per cent of total deposits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="RHz6Fp"&gt;Jordan followed with 11 banks, representing around 3.6 per cent of total customer deposits across the ranking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="UNJ4zz"&gt;Although Saudi Arabia ranked behind Egypt and Jordan by number of participating institutions, with 10 banks, its share of deposits was considerably larger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="2ZAJ5p"&gt;Saudi banks collectively accounted for approximately 25 per cent of total deposits, placing the country second by customer deposit volume.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="v7Redb"&gt;Kuwait was represented by nine banks, which together accounted for approximately 7.5 per cent of total deposits among the 100 institutions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="iVO1nk"&gt;The ranking is based on banks&amp;rsquo; reported customer deposit balances at end-June 2026, converted into US dollars to ensure a consistent basis of comparison across institutions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="lY1XHw"&gt;It covers parent banking groups across Arab countries, excluding their overseas branches.

Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="2rdqCO"&gt;The Central Bank of Egypt&amp;rsquo;s (CBE) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) is set to meet on Thursday, 24 September 2026, to decide on interest rates, amid renewed debate over the influence of recent rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve and Gulf central banks on Egypt&amp;rsquo;s monetary policy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="vgWM5B"&gt;The MPC bases its decisions on a broad range of domestic and external indicators, primarily inflation and its outlook, alongside exchange-rate developments, domestic liquidity, economic activity, capital flows and global financial conditions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="myNHYa"&gt;Recent decisions illustrate this approach. Despite regional and international developments, the CBE held interest rates unchanged at its July and August 2026 meetings, maintaining the overnight deposit rate at 19 per cent and the overnight lending rate at 20 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="ulTXP8"&gt;It reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining a restrictive monetary stance and an adequately positive real interest rate to support the disinflation process.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VAJjRU"&gt;CBE&amp;rsquo;s interest-rate decisions in recent years point to a relatively independent monetary policy path compared with those followed by Western and Gulf central banks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="maHzKW"&gt;This distinction is particularly evident in the Gulf, where most central banks move closely in line with Federal Reserve decisions. The relationship is rooted in the region&amp;rsquo;s exchange-rate regimes, with Gulf currencies pegged to the US dollar to varying degrees.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="kOMmoI"&gt;These arrangements mean that Federal Reserve decisions directly affect the cost of maintaining currency attractiveness and exchange-rate stability, explaining the relatively swift response of Gulf central banks, although the extent of that response varies by country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="lnN6dn"&gt;Egypt, by contrast, operates under a different monetary framework. The Egyptian pound is not fixed to the US dollar, giving the CBE greater flexibility to formulate monetary policy in response to domestic economic conditions, while continuing to account for US monetary policy and global capital movements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="pKgN8X"&gt;This flexibility has been evident throughout Hassan Abdalla&amp;rsquo;s tenure, during which the CBE has not automatically followed the Federal Reserve&amp;rsquo;s interest-rate decisions. Instead, it has held or adjusted rates according to its assessment of Egypt&amp;rsquo;s monetary and economic conditions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="D7VCoy"&gt;In Egypt, interest rates remain a key instrument for managing liquidity, containing inflationary pressures and supporting macroeconomic stability. Gulf central banks, meanwhile, face greater constraints on monetary policy independence because of their exchange-rate arrangements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="WoCMvu"&gt;That does not mean Federal Reserve decisions are absent from Egypt&amp;rsquo;s monetary policy considerations. Higher US interest rates increase the attractiveness of dollar-denominated assets and affect external financing costs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="l4hbsj"&gt;These factors form part of the CBE&amp;rsquo;s assessment, but within a broader monetary policy framework rather than as decisions that must automatically be replicated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="oLpbil"&gt;This distinction takes on particular significance ahead of Thursday&amp;rsquo;s meeting as the CBE assesses the latest inflation figures.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="fSOGju"&gt;Annual urban headline inflation eased to 14.5 per cent in August 2026, from 14.9 per cent in July, while annual core inflation rose to 14.9 per cent from 14.7 per cent over the same period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="YLnabw"&gt;Although headline inflation remains on a downward trajectory, it continues to exceed the CBE&amp;rsquo;s target range, reinforcing the case for caution in monetary policy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="pOkovo"&gt;The CBE previously set an inflation target of 7 per cent, plus or minus two percentage points, for the second half of 2027. The extended target horizon is intended to allow the economy to absorb price shocks without requiring further monetary tightening, while the bank continues to deploy its policy instruments to bring inflation back towards its target.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="dlvt63"&gt;The central question facing the MPC is therefore whether domestic economic indicators provide sufficient room for a new phase of monetary easing, or whether persistent inflationary and financial risks warrant keeping rates unchanged for longer, or even an unexpected increase.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="9tkTJV"&gt;Egypt&amp;rsquo;s narrow money supply (M1) stood at approximately EGP 4.49tn at end-July 2026, compared with EGP 4.49tn at end-June, recording a marginal monthly decline of 0.1 per cent, according to the latest available official data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="HEAzMn"&gt;Money supply therefore remained broadly unchanged in July, while quasi-money increased by 2.2 per cent, pushing total domestic liquidity (M2) up 1.6 per cent during the month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VtBkU1"&gt;Taken together, the data and preceding analysis point to a potential hold at Thursday&amp;rsquo;s meeting, particularly as inflation remains relatively elevated against the CBE&amp;rsquo;s targets and recent money-supply developments suggest limited movement in narrow money.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/23/13400.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>CBE,US Federal Reserve,Gulf central banks,interest rate,MPC</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13399</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13399</link><title>Al Baraka, Suez Canal Bank lead personal loans growth over 3 years</title><description>First Banks ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in Egypt by personal loans over the past three year</description><pubDate>Wed, 23 Sep 2026 13:07:26 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-23T13:07:26+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;h3 data-id="WF45Uy"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Al Baraka tops the ranking, reflecting the growing importance of personal loans within its loan portfolio&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="zkK5lq"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Islamic banks secure strong representation, with three of the four included in the ranking placing among the top 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="gq8OSE"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Eleven of 24 banks exceed the three-year average CAGR of 26.28%&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="u8GrQ0"&gt;First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in Egypt by personal loans over the past three years, specifically from end-2022 to end-2025, revealed notable differences in the pace of expansion across banks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Enf5Zk"&gt;Al Baraka Bank Egypt topped the ranking after recording the highest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VIP452"&gt;Al Baraka Bank Egypt&amp;rsquo;s personal loan portfolio recorded a CAGR of 67.42 per cent over the past three years, rising to EGP 17.56bn at end-2025 from EGP 3.74bn at end-2022, reflecting the growing importance of personal loan within its overall loan portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="mr8b6o"&gt;Suez Canal Bank ranked second, with its personal loan portfolio recording a CAGR of 63.26 per cent, rising to EGP 11.29bn at end-2025 from EGP 2.60bn at end-2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="JpwNS1"&gt;Kuwait Finance House &amp;ndash; Egypt (KFH-Egypt) ranked third, recording a CAGR of 56.65 per cent over the past three years.

Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="iPY2rs"&gt;First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the 100 largest Arab banks at end-June 2026 revealed a strong Qatari presence, with eight banks securing places among the top 100, led by Qatar National Bank (QNB), which ranked first in the Arab world by total assets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="f7Em9w"&gt;The ranking highlights considerable differences in scale across Qatar&amp;rsquo;s banking sector. While QNB maintains a substantial lead over its nearest domestic competitor, several other Qatari banks have relatively similar asset bases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="CuSaAr"&gt;QNB topped the ranking with total assets of approximately USD 394.72bn at end-June 2026, reinforcing its position as the largest Arab bank and placing it well ahead of its domestic peers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="4ySGyx"&gt;Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) ranked 21st among Arab banks, with assets of around USD 64.24bn at end-June 2026, making it QNB&amp;rsquo;s nearest Qatari competitor by asset size.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="qWuP37"&gt;The gap between the two stood at approximately USD 330.48bn, highlighting the substantial difference in scale between Qatar&amp;rsquo;s largest bank and the rest of the sector.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="j81cKJ"&gt;QNB&amp;rsquo;s assets were approximately 6.1 times those of QIB, underscoring its significant weight in Qatar&amp;rsquo;s banking sector alongside its position as the largest Arab bank in the ranking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="W4D1Rw"&gt;Competition was considerably closer among the Qatari banks that followed. Commercial Bank of Qatar ranked 24th among Arab banks, with assets of approximately USD 50.64bn at end-June 2026, around USD 13.6bn behind QIB.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="FcFTsc"&gt;AlRayan Bank followed in 25th place, with assets of approximately USD 50.52bn over the same period, leaving only a narrow gap between the two banks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="WPHnSd"&gt;The figures reveal a clear distinction in the structure of Qatar&amp;rsquo;s banking sector. While QNB holds a substantial lead over QIB, asset gaps narrow considerably among the banks that follow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="m9swnK"&gt;QIB&amp;rsquo;s assets exceeded those of Commercial Bank of Qatar by around USD 13.6bn, while just USD 120m separated Commercial Bank of Qatar and AlRayan Bank.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="6A9s44"&gt;Further down the ranking, Dukhan Bank placed 34th, with assets of approximately USD 35.46bn at end-June 2026, followed by Doha Bank in 37th place, with assets of USD 33.62bn, leaving a gap of less than USD 2bn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="HrOW8K"&gt;Qatar International Islamic Bank (QIIB) and Ahlibank completed Qatar&amp;rsquo;s representation among the top 100. QIIB ranked 56th, with assets of approximately USD 17.52bn, while Ahlibank placed 57th, with assets of around USD 17.15bn, a difference of just USD 370m.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="E46y7G"&gt;Overall, Qatar&amp;rsquo;s presence in First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the 100 largest Arab banks at end-June 2026 reflects QNB&amp;rsquo;s considerable regional scale alongside a group of banks with relatively similar asset bases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="bZQa1t"&gt;While the eight banks represent different levels of financial scale, QNB maintains a substantial lead over its nearest domestic competitors.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/23/13398.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>QNB,assets,100 largest Arab banks,Qatari banks,Qatar’s banking sector</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13396</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13396</link><title>ADIB-Egypt, ABK-Egypt lead shareholders’ equity growth in H1 2026</title><description>Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank Egypt ADIB-Egypt topped First Banks ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in E</description><pubDate>Wed, 23 Sep 2026 10:11:00 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-23T10:11:00+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;h3 data-id="FjJlv6"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;ADIB-Egypt tops the ranking, climbing from fourth place in 2025&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="8yBOLh"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity at 24 banks operating in&amp;nbsp;Egypt&amp;nbsp;rises 4.8% to EGP 1.11tn in H1 2026&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="gQEprI"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;CIB retains its position as the largest private-sector bank by shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity, followed by AAIB&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="6Nb1T8"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Islamic banks&amp;rsquo; combined shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity rises 11.3% to EGP 126bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 113.22bn at end-2025&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="mVSPLF"&gt;Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt (ADIB-Egypt) topped First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the fastest-growing banks operating in Egypt by shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity in the first half of 2026, rising from fourth place in the 2025 ranking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="mcSNmL"&gt;ADIB-Egypt&amp;#39;s shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity increased 26.1 per cent to EGP 42.45bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 33.65bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="93mgff"&gt;Al Ahli Bank of Kuwait &amp;ndash; Egypt (ABK-Egypt) ranked second, with shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity rising 17.6 per cent to EGP 25.81bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 21.96bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="E28HhR"&gt;Suez Canal Bank placed third, recording growth of 14.3 per cent in shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity to EGP 23.16bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 20.27bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="5Y0Kxk"&gt;First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking covered 24 banks operating in Egypt for which financial data were available.

Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="jnQ07a"&gt;QNB Egypt entered a new chapter five years ago this month when Mohamed Bedeir took over as Chief Executive Officer, marking the start of a period of accelerated business expansion and a stronger presence across Egypt&amp;rsquo;s banking market.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Qn6MLx"&gt;Over those years, QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s growth extended beyond the expansion of its balance sheet to encompass its various banking activities, supported by a strategy focused on broadening its customer base and expanding lending activity, alongside improving profitability and asset-quality indicators.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="sUtqUs"&gt;This reinforced its position as the largest foreign bank operating in the Egyptian market and the second-largest private-sector bank.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="oeg0QH"&gt;From EGP 354bn to EGP 1tn: QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s financial position strengthens under Mohamed Bedeir&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="Ju68OR"&gt;Financial position expansion was one of the most prominent features of this journey, with QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s assets rising by around 200 per cent over the past five years, an increase of more than EGP 708bn, to reach EGP 1.06tn at end-June 2026, from EGP 354.20bn at end-2021.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="EnjnTf"&gt;This growth was supported by a sustained expansion in the deposit base, as the bank succeeded in attracting diverse customer segments and offering savings products tailored to their different needs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="KcMZpQ"&gt;Customer deposits rose to EGP 910.37bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 296.24bn at end-2021, representing growth of 207.3 per cent over the past five years and an increase of EGP 614.13bn. Deposits accounted for around 87 per cent of the total increase in the bank&amp;rsquo;s balance sheet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="5eLKMX"&gt;The corporate segment played a pivotal role in expanding QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s deposit base, as the bank broadened its corporate customer base, strengthened banking relationships with major economic entities and offered advanced banking solutions and products tailored to their different needs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="i84nbo"&gt;As a result, corporate deposits rose to EGP 576.63bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 171.11bn at end-2021, representing growth of 237 per cent and an increase of EGP 405.52bn over the past five years. Corporate deposits accounted for around 66 per cent of the total increase in customer deposits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="WBbcmj"&gt;The bank also expanded its presence in the retail segment by diversifying the products and banking services offered to individuals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="qy2hCb"&gt;Retail deposits rose by around 166.7 per cent over the same period, an increase of EGP 208.61bn, to reach EGP 333.74bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 125.13bn at end-2021, reflecting the growing contribution of retail customers to the bank&amp;rsquo;s business expansion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="rNfQXA"&gt;As its funding base expanded, the growth translated directly into greater capacity for QNB Egypt to expand lending activity. The customer loan portfolio rose by around 180.8 per cent over the past five years to EGP 518.91bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 184.79bn at end-2021.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="ykI8Db"&gt;Corporate loans remained the main driver of this expansion, supported by the bank&amp;rsquo;s growing role in financing companies and major projects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="CBMi1d"&gt;The portfolio surged around 187.5 per cent over the period under review to EGP 426.90bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 148.49bn at end-2021, lifting its share of total loans to around 82.3 per cent from 80.4 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="WACQDh"&gt;At the same time, the bank continued to expand its retail lending, with the retail loan portfolio rising around 153.4 per cent over the past five years to EGP 92.03bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 36.30bn at end-2021, an increase of EGP 55.70bn. This completed a pattern of parallel growth across corporate and retail lending.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="kyKuS2"&gt;Asset quality improves markedly alongside credit expansion&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="93OKtH"&gt;QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s expansion was not limited to growth in its loan portfolio, but was accompanied by a marked improvement in asset quality. The non-performing loan (NPL) ratio declined to 3.93 per cent at end-June 2026, from 5.43 per cent at end-2023, reflecting the bank&amp;rsquo;s ability to continue expanding credit while maintaining portfolio quality and managing risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="DITYkr"&gt;The improvement was supported by a decline in the NPL ratio for the corporate loan portfolio, which accounts for the largest share of total lending, to 4.47 per cent at end-June 2026, from 6.33 per cent at end-2023.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="0OTLHm"&gt;Asset quality also improved in the retail loan portfolio, where the NPL ratio fell to 1.43 per cent at end-June 2026, from 1.87 per cent at end-2023. This reflected stronger quality across the bank&amp;rsquo;s two main loan portfolios alongside the robust growth recorded in lending over the past five years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="JU8PGJ"&gt;From balance-sheet growth to stronger profitability and efficiency&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="qslpMI"&gt;As the asset base expanded and lending activity grew, the key question remains: has QNB Egypt succeeded in translating this expansion in business scale into tangible profit growth and greater efficiency in the use of assets and capital?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="mSNLh9"&gt;On profitability, the bank recorded a significant increase in net profit, which rose by around 291 per cent to EGP 29.12bn in 2025, from EGP 7.45bn in 2021.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="uHHyPC"&gt;The growth was reflected in efficiency indicators, with Return on Average Assets (ROAA) rising to 3.38 per cent in 2025, from 2.33 per cent in 2021, while Return on Average Equity (ROAE) increased to 28.96 per cent from 17.85 per cent over the same period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="lAJT03"&gt;The strong performance continued into the first half of 2026, with the bank recording net profit of EGP 17.79bn, while ROAA stood at 3.60 per cent and ROAE at 30.33 per cent, reflecting sustained strength in returns alongside the expansion of its asset and capital bases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="tkgkjM"&gt;The five years under Mohamed Bedeir&amp;rsquo;s leadership have marked a significant transformation in the scale and scope of QNB Egypt&amp;rsquo;s operations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="3Yborm"&gt;Growth has extended beyond balance-sheet expansion to encompass the bank&amp;rsquo;s core business lines, delivering stronger returns on a substantially larger asset and capital base. Together, these achievements mark a significant chapter in the bank&amp;rsquo;s development within Egypt&amp;rsquo;s banking sector.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/22/13393.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>Mohamed Bedeir,financial position,QNB Egypt,balance sheet,expansion</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13392</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13392</link><title>The United Bank, ADIB-Egypt lead customer loan growth in H1 2026</title><description>The United Bank topped First Banks ranking tracking customer loan portfolio growth among banks operating in Eg</description><pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2026 12:43:41 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-22T12:43:41+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;h3 data-id="ElcBRf"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;The United Bank jumps from 13th in 2025 to top the ranking in six months&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="Pjj0E5"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Only four banks retain top-10 positions between 2025 and June 2026&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="tUyUPA"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;CIB retains its lead as the largest private-sector bank by customer loans at end-June 2026, with QNB Egypt second&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="agrPA4"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Islamic banks have limited representation, with just one of four securing a place in the top 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="jD93Mk"&gt;The United Bank topped First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking tracking customer loan portfolio growth among banks operating in Egypt during the first half of 2026, climbing from 13th place in 2025 to lead the ranking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="vbK1PX"&gt;The rise was supported by 29.6 per cent growth in the bank&amp;rsquo;s customer loan portfolio in just six months, reaching EGP 49.63bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 38.28bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="5rzCpP"&gt;Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt (ADIB-Egypt) ranked second after its customer loan portfolio rose by around 28 per cent in the first six months of 2026 to EGP 198.23bn at end-June, compared with EGP 154.87bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="cEKYcz"&gt;This made it the only Islamic bank among the top 10 out of the four Islamic banks included in the ranking, supported by the strong growth recorded during the period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="7ywwAO"&gt;Housing and Development Bank (HDB) ranked third among the fastest-growing banks by customer loans, after its portfolio increased by around 23.9 per cent on a half-year basis to EGP 81.44bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 65.72bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="rdHYor"&gt;First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking tracked customer loan portfolios at 25 banks operating in Egypt&amp;rsquo;s banking sector for which financial data were available.

Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="1D9Cnv"&gt;First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of the 100 largest banks in the Arab world at end-June 2026 showed no change among the top 10, even as the order within the group underwent a notable reshuffle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="zx71Ly"&gt;Relatively narrow asset gaps among several of the region&amp;rsquo;s largest banks, coupled with divergent growth rates in the first half of the year, made the pace of expansion a key determinant of ranking positions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="17FR2f"&gt;Despite an unchanged top-10 line-up, competition for position intensified in the first half of 2026, with six banks moving in the ranking and four holding their 2025 positions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="cUyLiS"&gt;The most notable shift came at the top, where QNB Group reclaimed first place from First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), supported by 3.7 per cent growth in total assets during the first half of the year. Assets rose to USD 394.72bn at end-June 2026, from USD 380.67bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Xw8gfI"&gt;By contrast, FAB recorded more modest asset growth of just 0.4 per cent, with total assets reaching USD 383.57bn at end-June 2026, compared with USD 382.23bn at end-2025. The slower growth pushed FAB into second place after it had taken the top spot at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025 for the first time in its history.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="7cwVI9"&gt;QNB Group&amp;rsquo;s return to first place does not reflect a fundamental shift in the scale of the two largest Arab banks as much as it highlights the impact of their differing growth rates. Although QNB&amp;rsquo;s assets exceeded FAB&amp;rsquo;s by around USD 11.15bn at end-June, the gap remains relatively narrow given the size of both balance sheets, leaving room for FAB to regain the lead if it records stronger growth than its Qatari rival.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="tpv1y6"&gt;Emirates NBD climbed to third place from fourth in the 2025 ranking, supported by 13.6 per cent half-year growth in total assets, the fastest pace among the top 10. Assets rose to USD 360.08bn at end-June 2026, from USD 317.04bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VouiB4"&gt;The move pushed Saudi National Bank (SNB) down one place to fourth, despite a 2.7 per cent increase in assets to USD 331.28bn at end-June, from USD 322.61bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="qLr5qV"&gt;Positions five through eight were more stable. Al Rajhi Bank retained fifth place, with assets rising by a limited 0.93 per cent in the first half of 2026 to USD 280.73bn at end-June, compared with USD 278.15bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="aG8sVN"&gt;Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB) also retained sixth place, with assets increasing by around 7.7 per cent over the same period to USD 226.86bn at end-June 2026, compared with USD 210.64bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="f3pObC"&gt;National Bank of Egypt (NBE) remained seventh, with total assets of USD 197.98bn at end-June 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VUdAg9"&gt;National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) also retained eighth place, with assets rising around 1.4 per cent in the first half of the year to USD 150.16bn at end-June 2026, compared with USD 148.14bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="xDhqdC"&gt;The final two places in the top 10 also saw changes, with Riyad Bank climbing one place to ninth and Kuwait Finance House (KFH) slipping to 10th.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="XOV2CW"&gt;Riyad Bank&amp;rsquo;s assets rose 2.6 per cent in the first half of 2026 to USD 142.03bn, from USD 138.50bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="tt5bL9"&gt;Kuwait Finance House (KFH), meanwhile, recorded a 1.3 per cent half-year decline in assets to USD 137.11bn at end-June, from USD 138.88bn at end-2025, making the shift between ninth and 10th place a direct reflection of the contrasting direction of asset growth at the two banks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="RstPXp"&gt;Overall, the top 10 at end-June 2026 remained stable, while the ranking itself saw notable movement.

type="html">&lt;p data-id="RVbxVX"&gt;Translated &amp;amp; Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="RVbxVX"&gt;Al Baraka Bank Egypt strengthened its standing in Egypt&amp;rsquo;s financing market, climbing from 20th place at end-2021 to 16th at end-June 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="bZPYCu"&gt;The advance came alongside a sharp expansion in its financing portfolio, which rose from EGP 24.26bn to EGP 83.13bn over the period, an increase of EGP 58.87bn, or 242.7 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Wxwoby"&gt;By June 2026, the portfolio had expanded to around 3.4 times its end-2021 level. Yet the growth was uneven across its components. Corporate financing remained the largest segment by value, while retail financing grew at a significantly faster pace, materially reshaping the portfolio mix.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="XmFruv"&gt;Corporate financing increased from EGP 21.78bn at end-2021 to EGP 63.18bn at end-June 2026, representing growth of 190.1 per cent and taking the portfolio to around 2.9 times its previous level.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="VlWtui"&gt;It contributed EGP 41.4bn to the overall increase, accounting for around 70 per cent of total portfolio growth. Despite this, its share of total financing fell from 89.8 per cent to around 76 per cent over the period, reflecting the stronger expansion in retail financing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="OOmsc2"&gt;Retail financing, meanwhile, surged from EGP 2.48bn at end-2021 to EGP 19.94bn at end-June 2026, an increase of EGP 17.46bn, or 703.7 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="hArxcb"&gt;The portfolio expanded to around eight times its end-2021 level, lifting its share of total financing from around 10.2 per cent to nearly 24 per cent. This shifted retail financing from a relatively limited component into a far more influential part of the portfolio structure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="3VRRIn"&gt;The reshaping of the financing portfolio was accompanied by a sharp increase in its weight within the bank&amp;rsquo;s total assets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="JwMtH6"&gt;The financing-to-assets ratio rose from 29.5 per cent at end-2021 to 54.83 per cent at end-June 2026, meaning financing moved from accounting for less than one-third of total assets to more than half.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="kO53vG"&gt;The figures reveal a clear divergence between growth momentum and absolute contribution. Retail financing expanded at more than three times the pace of corporate financing, yet corporate financing still accounted for the larger share of the increase in value terms, reflecting its substantially higher starting base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="DUkOBR"&gt;Even so, the sharp acceleration in retail financing was sufficient to materially increase its weight within the overall portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="A0DeiB"&gt;Al Baraka Bank Egypt&amp;rsquo;s rise in the ranking by financing portfolio size therefore reflects more than a significant expansion in financing activity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="gaK6B3"&gt;It also points to a notable rebalancing of the portfolio, with corporate financing remaining the dominant component while retail financing assumes a much greater role, resulting in a broader and more diversified financing mix.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/16/13373.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>Al Baraka Bank Egypt,financing market,Retail financing,corporate financing,largest banks,financing portfolio</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13372</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13372</link><title>First Advice: Al Rajhi leads Arab banks by profit for 2nd straight ranking </title><description>Al Rajhi Bank reshaped the race for the top spot among the most profitable Arab banks after topping First Bank</description><pubDate>Wed, 16 Sep 2026 12:18:53 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-16T12:18:53+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{6}" paraid="569077487"&gt;Al Rajhi Bank reshaped the race for the top spot among the most profitable Arab banks after topping First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking for the first time in its history in the first quarter of 2026, with a net profit of around USD 1.80bn.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{8}" paraid="9198462"&gt;The bank jumped from third place in the 2025 ranking to first, replacing Emirates NBD at the top of the list.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{10}" paraid="1979631521"&gt;Al Rajhi Bank continued to strengthen its lead,&amp;nbsp;retaining&amp;nbsp;the top spot in First Bank&amp;rsquo;s ranking of Arab banks by net profit in the first half of 2026.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{12}" paraid="1261365086"&gt;Its net profit rose 14 per cent year on year to around USD 3.67bn, compared with USD 3.22bn in the first half of 2025,&amp;nbsp;consolidating&amp;nbsp;its position at the top of the ranking of the most profitable Arab banks.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{14}" paraid="709591004"&gt;As for the pace of profit growth at its nearest competitor, second-ranked Emirates NBD recorded a much more modest increase of around 2.6 per cent in net profit during the first half of 2026, reaching USD 3.50bn, compared with USD 3.41bn in the corresponding period of 2025.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{16}" paraid="1065565761"&gt;The shift at the top of the profit ranking was driven not only by Al Rajhi Bank&amp;rsquo;s stronger earnings but also by the widening gap in profit growth between the two banks.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{18}" paraid="1217943169"&gt;While Al Rajhi posted robust growth, Emirates NBD&amp;rsquo;s more moderate pace allowed Al Rajhi to widen its lead and strengthen its position at the top of the ranking.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{20}" paraid="1424664234"&gt;The gap between the two banks&amp;rsquo; profits stood at around USD 170mn in the first half of 2026, compared with around USD 190mn in&amp;nbsp;favour&amp;nbsp;of Emirates NBD in the corresponding period of 2025, reflecting a clear shift in the balance of power among the region&amp;rsquo;s most profitable banks.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{22}" paraid="1521003548"&gt;Meanwhile, Saudi National Bank (SNB)&amp;nbsp;remains&amp;nbsp;close to the battle for the top spot after ranking third with a net profit of around USD 3.47bn in the first half of 2026, recording year-on-year growth of 7.2 per cent.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p paraeid="{7c9a4a01-0c51-40ac-b573-d36942accf0d}{24}" paraid="317452910"&gt;Despite&amp;nbsp;Emirates&amp;nbsp;NBD&amp;nbsp;retaining&amp;nbsp;second place, SNB&amp;rsquo;s stronger profit growth rate opens the door to the possibility of overtaking it in the coming periods, particularly if it&amp;nbsp;maintains&amp;nbsp;its current growth pace.

Edited by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="e2RHsl"&gt;Kuwait Finance House&amp;rsquo;s (KFH) acquisition of Ahli United Bank Group in September 2022 marked a turning point for Ahli United Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="6zxjUW"&gt;The bank subsequently adopted a Sharia-compliant banking model in September 2024 and was officially renamed Kuwait Finance House &amp;ndash; Egypt (KFH&amp;ndash;Egypt) in January 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="GJbfjk"&gt;Between end-2022 and June 2026, the bank underwent more than a change in ownership and identity, as its balance sheet expanded, the weight of its customer segments shifted, and the relationship between the resources it mobilises and the uses to which they are deployed was reshaped.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="eLNOmE"&gt;The comparison between the bank&amp;rsquo;s position at end-2022 and June 2026 shows a transformation that went beyond doubling the size of its balance sheet. Total assets rose 117.4 per cent to EGP 185.90bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 85.49bn at end-2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="kzVEg6"&gt;Deposits grew at a faster pace, surging 162.6 per cent to EGP 149.93bn at end-June 2026, from EGP 57.09bn at end-2022. Corporate deposits rose 136.2 per cent to EGP 101.68bn from EGP 43.06bn, while retail deposits jumped 243.9 per cent to EGP 48.25bn from EGP 14.03bn. As a result, retail&amp;rsquo;s share of total deposits increased to 32.2 per cent from 24.6 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="IZoaE7"&gt;Financing increased 124.9 per cent to EGP 120.31bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 53.50bn at end-2022. Corporate financing rose 110.1 per cent to EGP 105.88bn from EGP 50.39bn, while retail financing surged 364.8 per cent to EGP 14.43bn from EGP 3.10bn. This lifted retail financing&amp;rsquo;s share of total financing to 12 per cent from 5.8 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="PvfqD0"&gt;The data reveal a more nuanced pattern of growth. Individual customers emerged as the bank&amp;rsquo;s fastest-growing segment, but not its centre of gravity. Corporates still account for around 68 per cent of deposits and 88 per cent of financing, underlining their enduring role as the bank&amp;rsquo;s core business base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="wLJ0hS"&gt;The shift is significant because it is evident on both sides of the balance sheet. The bank not only attracted individual deposits at a rapid pace but also expanded financing to this segment even faster. This points to a gradual deepening of its retail franchise, rather than an isolated increase in balances on either side of the balance sheet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Bxk8gz"&gt;The loan-to-deposit ratio declined to around 80.2 per cent in June 2026 from 93.7 per cent at end-2022. Over the period, the bank added EGP 92.84bn to customer deposits, compared with EGP 66.82bn in financing. Although the financing portfolio more than doubled, deposits expanded faster, providing greater scope to manage liquidity and allocate it across different uses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="oFcHII"&gt;Financial investments reinforce this reading, rising 109.6 per cent to EGP 35.56bn at end-June 2026 from EGP 16.97bn at end-2022. The increase in resources was not absorbed by financing alone but also flowed into other asset classes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="5qU9Ys"&gt;The comparison therefore points to a different challenge: no longer simply expanding the resource base, but deploying it more efficiently to generate productive assets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="kZh4Cw"&gt;Shareholders&amp;rsquo; equity expanded alongside the bank&amp;rsquo;s business, rising 121.2 per cent to EGP 23.28bn at end-June 2026 from EGP 10.52bn at end-2022. Its share of total assets remained broadly unchanged, representing around 12.3 per cent at end-2022 and 12.5 per cent at end-June 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Yq3Ftm"&gt;This frames the next phase of the bank&amp;rsquo;s development. The post-acquisition years demonstrated its capacity to expand the balance sheet, strengthen its resource base, and increase the contribution of retail customers, while preserving corporates as a core pillar.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="A9ICz5"&gt;The decline in the loan-to-deposit ratio, however, shifts the question for the period ahead: not how much further the bank can grow, but how effectively it can convert the growth already achieved into higher productivity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="AVEKAh"&gt;The expansion extended beyond the balance sheet to the bank&amp;rsquo;s earnings capacity. Net profit more than doubled over the period, rising 103.5 per cent to EGP 4.08bn in 2025 from EGP 2.01bn in 2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="99lAi2"&gt;The improvement was underpinned by growth across the bank&amp;rsquo;s core income streams. Net interest income surged 152.0 per cent to EGP 7.64bn in 2025 from EGP 3.03bn in 2022, while net fees and commission income increased 71.4 per cent to EGP 849.5m from EGP 495.6m.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="3sMehU"&gt;Net interest income remained the principal driver of the bank&amp;rsquo;s income growth over the period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="krEIl9"&gt;Growth productivity test&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="J4dj3v"&gt;Overall, the comparison shows that the acquisition was followed by a gradual reconfiguration of the bank&amp;rsquo;s business profile, rather than simply an expansion in scale. The bank&amp;#39;s resource base grew faster than financing, the retail segment gained greater prominence and delivered faster growth, while corporates retained their position as the foundation of the bank&amp;rsquo;s business.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="fax0jB"&gt;The bank has therefore established a broader and more diversified platform for growth without diluting its corporate focus.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="7z2WLz"&gt;The next phase will test KFH&amp;ndash;Egypt&amp;#39;s ability to raise the productivity of that growth by deploying its resources more efficiently, turning its retail expansion into sustainable business and preserving the strength of its corporate portfolio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="XIzkXN"&gt;The post-acquisition period laid a wider foundation for growth. The next phase will determine the bank&amp;rsquo;s ability to translate that foundation into a sustainable competitive advantage.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/14/13365.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>Growth,KFH,Ahli United Bank Group,acquisition,KFH–Egypt</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13364</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13364</link><title>CIB, QNB Egypt lead corporate loan expansion among EGX-listed banks in H1 2026</title><description>Commercial International Bank Egypt CIB topped First Banks Corporate Credit Competitiveness Index for EGX-list</description><pubDate>Mon, 14 Sep 2026 11:32:21 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-14T11:32:21+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;h3 data-id="869wFo"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;CIB claims top spot on the index, reflecting its ability to deliver strong, sustained increases in corporate loans that outpace its rivals&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="JxW6pT"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Corporate loans at EGX-listed banks totals EGP 1.61tn, up EGP 216.72bn in H1 2026&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3 data-id="pmRFfT"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc9933;"&gt;Islamic banks secure just one top-five place among the three covered by the ranking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p data-id="bqOirI"&gt;Commercial International Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt (CIB) topped First Bank&amp;rsquo;s Corporate Credit Competitiveness Index for EGX-listed banks in H1 2026, supported by the largest increase in its corporate loan portfolio, reflecting its ability to deliver strong and sustained growth that outpaced its rivals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="DF1DSq"&gt;CIB&amp;rsquo;s corporate loan portfolio increased by around EGP 78.86bn in the first six months of this year, reaching EGP 527.99bn at end-June 2026, compared with EGP 449.13bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="uovsKh"&gt;QNB Egypt ranked second after adding around EGP 43.17bn to its corporate loan portfolio in H1 2026, bringing the total to EGP 426.91bn at end-June, compared with EGP 383.73bn at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="XudlRA"&gt;Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt (ADIB-Egypt) took third place after its corporate loan portfolio increased by EGP 34bn in H1 2026 to EGP 140.54bn at end-June, compared with EGP 106.54bn at end-2025.

Translated by Aya Elsayed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="5Wz5LM"&gt;The corporate segment at Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank &amp;ndash; Egypt (ADIB-Egypt) has evolved beyond its position as the largest component of the financing portfolio to become a key driver of the bank&amp;rsquo;s expansion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="9WxG8W"&gt;In the first half of 2026, the corporate segment drove most of the increase in both deposits and financing, while expanding its share of the bank&amp;rsquo;s asset base. Its growth outpaced the bank overall on both fronts, reinforcing its influence on the balance-sheet composition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="7LOswC"&gt;Corporate deposits rose from EGP 143.29bn at end-2025 to EGP 184.13bn at end-June 2026, an increase of EGP 40.84bn, or 28.5 per cent. Corporate financing increased from EGP 105.60bn to EGP 139.20bn over the same period, a rise of EGP 33.60bn, or 31.8 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="uDUaEH"&gt;By comparison, the bank&amp;rsquo;s total deposits rose 19.5 per cent to EGP 332.09bn, while total financing increased 28 per cent to EGP 197.92bn at end-June 2026. The corporate segment therefore outpaced the bank&amp;rsquo;s overall growth in both financing and deposits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="UlYfTG"&gt;The significance of this expansion becomes clearer when measuring the corporate segment&amp;rsquo;s contribution to the increase, rather than focusing solely on the size of its balances. The bank&amp;rsquo;s total deposits increased by EGP 54.23bn over the period, with corporate deposits accounting for EGP 40.84bn, or 75.3 per cent of the increase.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="PaRYLR"&gt;On the financing side, the overall increase amounted to EGP 43.25bn, with corporate financing contributing EGP 33.60bn, or 77.7 per cent. These shares confirm that the corporate segment was the largest driver of new business growth at the bank in H1 2026, rather than merely the segment retaining the largest share of existing balances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="V30wHt"&gt;This growth was reflected in the balance-sheet composition, as corporate financing&amp;rsquo;s share of total customer financing rose to 70.3 per cent at end-June 2026, from 68.3 per cent at end-2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="cevqy5"&gt;Corporate financing as a share of the bank&amp;rsquo;s assets also increased to 33.6 per cent from 30.5 per cent over the period. With corporate financing growing 31.8 per cent, compared with 19.5 per cent growth in assets, the relative weight of corporate activity within the balance sheet increased faster than the asset base itself expanded.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="dMK3EC"&gt;This shift was not limited to financing. Corporate deposits rose 28.5 per cent over the period, compared with 19.5 per cent growth in the bank&amp;rsquo;s total deposits, also increasing the segment&amp;rsquo;s weight within the deposit base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Xd7Q22"&gt;The corporate segment therefore grew faster than the bank across both deposits and financing, while simultaneously increasing its share of the financing portfolio and asset structure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This marks a significant shift in ADIB-Egypt&amp;rsquo;s growth profile in H1 2026. Already the largest component of the financing portfolio, the corporate segment has become the leading contributor to growth, expanding faster than the bank overall and increasing its share of deposits, financing and assets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The segment is therefore central to assessing the bank&amp;rsquo;s H1 2026 performance and the changing composition of its balance sheet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Three indicators underpin its growing importance: expansion above the bank&amp;rsquo;s overall pace, a contribution exceeding three-quarters of the increase in both deposits and financing, and a larger share of financing and assets.&lt;/p&gt;</a10:content><enclosure type="image/jpeg" url="https://en.firstbankeg.com/UserFiles/News/2026/09/13/13362.jpg"></enclosure><keywords>ADIB-Egypt,deposits,corporates,Financing,expansion</keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.firstbankeg.com/13361</guid><link>https://en.firstbankeg.com/13361</link><title>CBE launches 4th edition of FinTech Got Talent 2026 for university students</title><description>The Central Bank of Egypt CBE, has launched the fourth edition of FinTech Got Talent 2026 competition for univ</description><pubDate>Sun, 13 Sep 2026 14:59:01 +0200</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-09-13T14:59:01+02:00</a10:updated><a10:content type="html">&lt;p data-id="4hNhfq"&gt;The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), has launched the fourth edition of FinTech Got Talent 2026 competition for university students, under FinYology initiative by FinTech Egypt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="IzP9s5"&gt;The competition aims to award the best ground-breaking projects and innovations in the field of financial technology, in collaboration with the Federation of Egyptian Banks (FEB) and the Egyptian Banking Institute (EBI).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="aXmY3j"&gt;The launch of this contest comes in alignment with the CBE&amp;#39;s commitment to empowering youth, anchoring Egypt&amp;rsquo;s stance as a leading regional hub for financial technology, and capitalizing on the successes achieved during the previous three editions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="dB7w1R"&gt;In this regard, Mr. Hassan Abdalla, Governor of the Central Bank of Egypt, emphasised that investing in young talents is not merely an objective the CBE strives to achieve, but rather a fundamental pillar of its vision to build the future of Egypt&amp;#39;s banking and financial sector.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="afXRaW"&gt;This is accomplished through qualifying a generation that is equipped with the essential knowledge, skills, and capabilities to keep pace with the rapid shifts in the global economy, thereby strengthening the sector&amp;#39;s efficiency and competitive edge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="OToEx4"&gt;Eng. Ayman Hussein, CBE&amp;rsquo;s First Sub Governor, and Dr. Abdel Aziz Nossier, Executive Director of the EBI, inaugurated the competition, which was hosted by the CBE, in the presence of the CBE&amp;rsquo;s leadership and senior representatives from the banking sector, and representatives from a number of Egyptian universities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="pUMuNw"&gt;The competition comprises several stages, starting with qualifiers at the university level and concluding with the selection of the top 11 projects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="Z1OT35"&gt;The final qualified projects were incubated within a comprehensive one-month program at the DMZ Cairo business incubator, where necessary support and mentorship were provided to refine their ideas and enhance their readiness to the competition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="TW8tIp"&gt;At the end of the competition, the winning teams received their awards. The FinFamily project, developed by students from the Faculty of Computers and Artificial Intelligence at Cairo University, secured first place for their innovative application - an integrated digital platform designed to enhance financial literacy among children aged 6 to 15 by combining interactive financial education and AI-powered training in both Arabic and English languages.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="XUL3Ap"&gt;Meanwhile, the PayRamids project, submitted by students from the College of Computing and Information Technology at the Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport (Smart Village branch), obtained second place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="0mydez"&gt;Their application offers an integrated system for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) to manage human resources and payroll, alongside providing access to short-term financing through banks and licensed funding institutions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="AtYCLn"&gt;The School of Business Administration at Nile University placed third with &lt;strong&gt;Pockety&lt;/strong&gt;, a platform through a mobile app and smart bracelet that help children set savings goals, track spending, take part in financial challenges and make secure payments under parental supervision.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="skwG4J"&gt;The three teams earned the opportunity to represent Egypt in the Arab FinTech Challenge during the Jordan FinTech Festival 2026, held in Jordan from 21 to 24 September 2026, with participation from Jordan, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar and Palestine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="ky0Teu"&gt;Noteworthy, Egyptian teams have maintained a strong presence and achieved outstanding results in the &amp;ldquo;Arab FinTech Challenge&amp;rdquo; over the past three years, securing first place in the competition held as part of &amp;ldquo;GITEX North Star&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="FscWfa"&gt;In 2025, they reached a remarkable milestone by attaining both first and second places, highlighting the excellence of Egyptian students and their capabilities to compete regionally across the fields of FinTech and digital innovation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-id="qEAfwX"&gt;The FinTech Got Talent competition, launched in 2023 under the FinYology initiative, is the first of its kind in fintech.
