Performance from the main banking business was particularly strong as the Bank’s net revenues grew by 17.1% to AED 875.6 million from AED 747.8 million in Q2 2010. The Bank has maintained its strong liquidity position and continues to respect the regulatory ratios, as the advances to stable funds ratio improved to 87.8% at the end of first half of 2011, while continued emphasis on managing the cost of funds saw the bank further reduce its higher cost deposits. In addition, strong year-on-year customer activity in the Retail Banking unit saw ADIB’s customer numbers increase by 13.6% since Q2 2010 to more than 439,000 customers. The growth in customer numbers and a more diversified product offering reduced the impact of the new UAE Central Bank guidelines and, along with ADIB’s enhanced Transaction Banking and Investment Banking franchises, saw a growth in fee and commission income of 62% versus Q2 2010. Furthermore, the Bank continued its conservative approach to provisioning, ensuring a healthy non-performing asset coverage ratio as well as introducing a quarterly impairment review of the portfolio held by the real estate subsidiary, Burooj Properties.
