Abu Dhabi - Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), a top tier Islamic financial institution,is offering a new 100 percentcapital-protected note that gives investorsexposure to blue chip German companies that are experiencing potential export growth as consumer confidence and spending rebounds across Europe.

The two-year sharia-compliant note is specifically tailored for risk-averse investors looking to diversify their portfolio with access to top performing German companies that export across the Globe. The noteis linked to a basket of top performing German companies,including Bayer, SAP, Siemens, Continental, Henkel, Adidas, Airbus and Deutsche Post.

Investors should benefit from the buoyancy in the European retail market as consumer confidence rises boosted by lower fuel prices. Consumer confidence indices have climbed in Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain, with retailers, including Next and H&M, reporting strong sales.

This is the latest in a series of investment solutions offered by ADIB that aim to provide returns while ensuring the investment is at minimum risk, andalso allowing investors to diversify their portfolio. ADIB recently launched a 100 percent capital-protected note that provides access to Emerging Market equities. Last year, the bank issued a similar 100 percent capital-protected note tracking the Dow Jones Islamic Market Titans.
