Abu Dhabi, UAE: Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), a leading Islamic bank in the region, delivered strong financial results for H1 2021.

Net Profit surged 89% year-on-year to AED 1,109 million from AED 588 million in H1 2020. The growth in net profit reflects the strong underlying performance across the business supported by a 3.4% growth in total Revenue to AED 2,644 million compared to AED 2,557 million in the same period last year. Growth in revenue was driven by an increase in non-funding income of 19%, boosted by a 11% improvement in fee income.

The financial results were also supported by an 8% decline in Operating Expenses with cost to income ratio improving 5% due to the successful implementation of technology-led initiatives that helped reduce the cost of sales and customer acquisition while also streamlining internal processes.  

ADIB continued to demonstrate strengths and depths in its balance sheet with a 5% year-on-year increase in total assets, driven by a 7% growth in deposits and a 3% growth in gross customer financing compared to H1 2020.
