According to an exclusive survey published by the magazine, ADCB has been named the ‘Best Bank in Payments and Collections’ in the Middle East region and the ‘Best Bank in Trade Finance’ in the UAE. The survey evaluates banks in 83 countries and regions, based on their transaction volume, scope of global coverage, customer service, competitive pricing and innovative technologies. In addition, the magazine has incorporated corporate readership in this year’s poll to increase the accuracy and reliability of results.
