CIMB Islamic Bank Gets Global Award

CIMB Islamic Bank Bhd has won the “Leading Islamic Bank” award at the Global Islamic Economy Award, held in conjunction with the inaugural Global Islamic Economy Summit 2013 in Dubai.

“As a global thought leader in Islamic finance and pioneer in many innovative deals and structured products, CIMB Islamic emerged as the only Asean-based bank honoured for its effort in demonstrating significant business impact using the Islamic economic ethos,” CIMB said in a press statement.

The award was managed under the patronage of vice president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
