Dubai

In recent years, Emirates NBD has evolved into the outward-looking full-service lender that Dubai – an outward-looking city with global aspirations of its own – needs.

Last year was a busy one in Asia for Emirates NBD. The Dubai-based full-service bank, which has branches in Singapore, China and India, and across the Middle East, was co-arranger on a November 2017, $740 million credit facility for Mercuria Energy, with the capital set aside by the Swiss energy and commodities group for use across its Asian operations. The oversubscribed deal included investor meetings in Dubai, Shanghai, Singapore and Abu Dhabi.
