ADIB Experiences Remarkable Rise in Digital Banking Adoption

Amid a global banking revolution, Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) stands tall with marked growth in digital banking, reflecting the global shift towards online financial services. The latest figures unveil an impressive 80% of ADIB’s clientele harnessing the bank’s digital avenues – a testament to its commitment to modern, efficient banking.

The past year alone has seen a 27% uptick in ADIB’s mobile banking interactions, with over half of its personal finance offerings now solicited via its digital app. More strikingly, there’s been a 142% surge in fresh accounts initiated using ADIB’s avant-garde Electronic Fingerprint Recognition (EFR) system. This pivot to mobile underscores ADIB’s drive to refine the digital banking journey.

The bank’s app isn’t just a tool – it’s becoming a daily touchpoint. Users, on average, engage with it over 24 times monthly, while mobile transactions show notable growth, underscoring ADIB’s prowess in sculpting user-centric digital environments.

Fernando Plaza Lopez, ADIB’s Chief Digital Strategist, spotlighted the bank’s digital-first mantra. By leveraging top-tier technology and molding it around the customer, ADIB has carved a roadmap for future growth. The bank’s Command Centre insights have been pivotal, refining strategies to resonate with the contemporary user. At its core, ADIB seeks to furnish an unparalleled online banking milieu, empowering patrons to transact with assurance.

2023 heralded a suite of 19 innovative services for ADIB’s digital quiver, ranging from banking certificate issuance to installment deferrals and UAE Pass integrations. Such enhancements amplify ADIB’s online proposition, attuned to the multifaceted financial landscape.

The capital market side paints an equally rosy picture: a 78% year-on-year growth in IPO subscriptions. Remarkably, over four-fifths of ADIB’s retail users now anchor their IPO commitments via the bank’s app, lured by its intuitive design and fortified security protocols. In sync with UAE’s vision for a buoyant capital market, ADIB paves the way for customer immersion in Sharia-compliant IPOs, prominently on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX).
