Annual Reports
| 2021 Annual Report | | Throughout 2021, Bank ABC Islamic remained focused
on generating growth, particularly with respect to our
institutional business, while maintaining a prudent risk
management stance. Despite the challenging operating
environment, travel disruptions undermining new-tobank
(NTB) corporate customer origination, and excess
market liquidity, the Bank was successful in maintaining
its business momentum and usual level of activities with
its customers.
In 2021, Bank ABC Islamic collaborated with the Group
on expanding the outreach of Islamic products to
network markets. The launch of our Islamic banking
proposition, ‘alburaq’, in Algeria in February was highly
successful, delivering encouraging customer acquisition
statistics for the first year. Work is now underway to
Bank ABC Islamic
successfully navigated
the continuing headwinds
of the economy related to
the COVID-19 pandemic
and supply chain bottle
necks to deliver robust
results.

expand the alburaq branch network in the country in
2022. alburaq represents a significant enhancement to
product capability in one of the Bank’s core markets
and paves the way for roll-out in other geographies.
Over the coming three years, we expect the new Islamic
window to account for a meaningful contribution to the
Bank’s performance in Algeria. Bank ABC Islamic also
collaborated during 2021 with the Group to launch Islamic
products for ila, Bank ABC’s award-winning mobile-only
digital bank in Bahrain. Our Islamic coverage and product
teams are committed to providing support to clients
throughout the network. | |

| 2020 Annual Report | | Bank ABC Islamic entered 2020 with an optimistic outlook following the exceptional performance it had in 2019, achieving double-digit growth in both total operating income as well as net profit. By the end of the first quarter, however, the COVID-19 pandemic had arrived, and the Bank had to swiftly adjust its focus to deal with the unprecedented challenges that came with it. “A year like no other” as described by the IMF, 2020 has had an indelible impact on the world and the financial services industry is no different. However, for Bank ABC Islamic, this exceptionally trying year has highlighted its formidable resilience. The disciplined execution that was followed in the delivery of our robust strategy, in line with the Group’s transformation journey, and its value drivers, enabled the Bank to endure these extreme conditions. | |

| 2019 Annual Report | | Bank ABC Islamic performed exceptionally well in 2019
achieving double-digit growth in both total operating
income as well as net profit, with investments in new
products, expanded geographic coverage and reduction
in credit losses. These outcomes indicate that through
the robust execution of the Bank’s 3 year strategy, in
line with Group’s transformation journey, and its value
drivers, significant progress has been made during very
challenging economic conditions.
The headwinds that we had to overcome during 2019
included sluggish growth in the GCC throughout the
year and geopolitical concerns across the region that
continued to dampen confidence. The UAE and Saudi
Arabia, which are core markets, experienced low (yet
steady GDP growth) whilst, further afield, the devaluation
of the Turkish Lira and political environment in Turkey
subdued growth potential. Looking ahead we expect to
see lower demand for financing in Turkey set against a
backdrop of increased competition. | |

| 2018 Annual Report | | Financial performance in 2018 maintained its positive trend, despite a difficult operating environment, Bank ABC Islamic grew its income
and profits. Business sentiment was subdued in our core GCC markets as the higher oil price that persisted for much of the year did not result in public sector spending, which has historically been the key driver for economic growth in the region. Even so, total operating income increased by 17.6 % while operating expenses decreased by 17%, resulting in a healthy 25.3% growth in net profit for the year.
Illustrating Bank ABC lslamic's robust growth, the balance sheet expanded by 11.9% to US$1.7 billion at the end of 2018, up from US$1.6 billion at the end of the previous year. By the Grace of God, the portfolio proved resilient and there were no credit-related (i.e. FAS 30 stage 3) provisions for the year. Capital base remained extremely strong, as shown by a capital adequacy ratio of 34%, well above the regulatory requirement of 12.5%. | |

| 2017 Annual Report | | Financial performance for 2017 is an affirmation that investments made over the last few years are showing accretive results.
The originate-to-distribute model adopted earlier continued to show positive outcome without putting additional strain on the Bank’s balance sheet.
Total operating income increased by 17.6% while operating expenses increased by only 9.6%, resulting in a healthy growth of almost 12% in net profit, despite a very challenging year. | |

| 2016 Annual Report | | Financial performance for 2016 has built on the good results shown in 2015. The de-risking process initiated in
late 2015 for vulnerable sectors in the regional economy allowed us the benefit of reshaping balance sheet with
higher yielding and lower risk weighted assets. Total balance sheet footings grew by 21.6% to $1.6 billion at
yearend with an actual decrease of 6.7% in Risk Weighted Assets. Total operating income increased by almost
12% while operating expenses were kept flat, resulting in a healthy growth of 16% in Net Profit, despite a very
challenging year. Most notably asset churn of $752 million, combined with lead managing Sukuk issues and Islamic
Syndications, contributed to boosting fee income while retaining a 20:80 proportion between fee and margin income

| 2015 Annual Report | | Financial performance for 2015 has sustained the momentum of good results shown in 2014.
While successfully managing a moderate growth of Risk Weighted Assets, with only a one percent increase over last year, total operating income increased by a healthy 23%. This, combined with a controlled growth in total operating expenses of 7%, allowed Bank ABC Islamic to achieve a robust growth of 31% in net profit for the year of $19.7 million in 2015 compared to $15.1 million in 2014. | |
