It has maintained its place in this ranking, which accounts for the best 20 banks in promoting the syndicated loans in the MENA region over the past six consecutive years.
The bank noted in the statement that its ranking came as a result of its success in arranging major funding operations for numerous projects in all major fields. This is in addition to its sufficient participation in a number of national projects.

These loans are worth approximately EGP 38.8bn while the bank's expected financing coverage in these loans amounts to EGP 9.5bn.
The bank noted that arranging such loans highlights its role as one of the leading national banks in the Egyptian market.
