HOME About AWB

Who we are.

Since its inception in 1980, Al Watany Bank of Egypt (AWB) has been dedicated to building a sustainable energetic future for clients and corporations operating in Egypt and the Middle East.

Based in Egypt, with a large branch network across the country, we understand entirely the challenging needs of individuals and aspiring businesses, and the change involved to remain one step ahead in today’s rapidly evolving markets.

AWB is a solid, integrated bank that has established an unrivalled network providing proven and superior services. Having been recently acquired by the National Bank of Kuwait (NBK), the acquisition is a strategic alliance with exceptional capabilities and resources that provides us with unique access to the region’s most vibrant segments in an increasingly competitive banking environment.

AWB managed to secure loans for thousands of big and small investors and institutional clients, a fact reflected in its increasing performing loan portfolio.

What we do.

Being active in corporate, retail and investment banking, AWB is one of Egypt's major players of medium, and long-term financing for corporate clients, small and medium sized enterprises (SME). 

AWB's range of financial services and products includes, but its not limited to, corporate finance, investment services, trade finance, commercial and residential mortgages, etc.

Capitalizing on a talented core team, AWB proactively delivers sustainable, integrated and tailored financing solutions to businesses and enterprises across the region.

How we work.

We like to think of ourselves as record-breaking growth seekers and industry trend-setters rather than a typical finance provider. Crucially, AWB tailors effective solutions, maximizes performance and identifies the critical factors to ensure your investment delivers results. Our prime objective is to build customer satisfaction, create values and provide quality and professional service to deliver superior returns for all AWB shareholders.

Our market strategy implies a great deal of responsibility and commitment towards our family members, namely clients and shareholders. Accordingly, we believe long-term value creation depends on what AWB does above and beyond traditional banking. This is why we attach great importance to adopting unrivalled performance standards that are an essential part of our culture, identity and business practice.
