Barwa Bank, Qatar’s fastest growing Shariah-compliant bank, has been selected as co-lead manager on the Government of Dubai’s $750m sukuk issuance which is the first sovereign sukuk of 2013 in the region.
Barwa Bank has opened the year in the Debt Capital Markets in the same manner as the previous, being chosen for the second time as co-lead manager by government of Dubai, for what is one of the most sought after credits in the Mena region.
Steve Troop, CEO, Barwa Bank, said, “We are extremely proud to have been selected as repeat co-lead manager by the Government of Dubai. Having the opportunity to be associated for the second time with a transaction of such significance indicates our credibility, strong regional relationships and delivery, as well as access to liquidity. We are working on many initiatives in the region in order to maintain our market standing and have a strong business pipeline for the coming year.”
