The bank’s board had recommended a dividend of a 24.52 per cent when it announced financial results for 2016 in February.
In the bank’s annual report 2016 which was released on Sunday, Tirad Al Mahmoud, Group Chief Executive Officer said the prospects for the UAE as a whole in 2017 are encouraging, supported by stability in oil prices and emphasis on non-oil growth.
“Nonetheless, we continue to forecast modest customer financing growth in the UAE. Our focus remains on pursuing growth strategies in select segments.”
Al Mahmoud is currently on medical leave and the annual general meeting was chaired by Khamis Buharoon who is the vice-chairman of the ADIB Board of Directors.
