Emirates Islamic Rewards 55 SMEs Through AED 1 Million Business Banking Campaign

Emirates Islamic, one of the leading Islamic financial institutions in the UAE, has successfully concluded its Business Banking Promotional Campaign, rewarding 55 Business Banking customers with prizes worth a total of AED 1 million.

The nationwide campaign, which ran from 1 April to 30 June 2026, was launched to empower small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the UAE by encouraging sustainable balance growth and rewarding customer loyalty.

Envisioned to accelerate business growth, the campaign observed high levels of customer participation and engagement across the bank’s SME portfolio. Monthly draws awarded cash prizes to businesses that maintained and grew their account balances, culminating in a prize draw post-campaign where one lucky Business Banking customer won the grand prize of AED 250,000.

Mohamed Al Hadi, Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management at Emirates Islamic, said: “We are pleased to celebrate the successful conclusion of our Business Banking promotional campaign, which validates our ongoing commitment to the UAE’s vibrant SME sector. SMEs are central to the UAE’s vision for economic diversification. By rewarding our customers for practising disciplined financial management and growing their balances, we are proud to play an active role in fostering a more resilient, competitive and future-ready business landscape.”

The successful conclusion of the initiative underscores Emirates Islamic’s strategic focus on deepening relationships with its Business Banking clients, growing Current Account/Savings Account (CASA) balances and supporting the growth ambitions of entrepreneurs and start-ups across the country.

Ghazanfar Naqvi, Head of Business Banking at Emirates Islamic, added: “At Emirates Islamic, we are dedicated to delivering innovative Shariah-compliant solutions that cater to the needs of business owners as they expand their enterprises. This campaign was designed to offer tangible value beyond traditional banking, recognising customer engagement while empowering SMEs to achieve their financial aspirations. We congratulate all 55 winners and remain committed to championing entrepreneurship across the UAE.”
