Bank ProfileIn 1969, when Commercial Bank of Dubai (CBD) started out as a Public Shareholding Company little did was know that sheer grit and determination would get us where they are today. An Emiri Decree issued by His Highness the Late Sheikh Rashid Bin Sayeed Al Maktoum, the founder of modern Dubai, laid the cornerstone of Commercial Bank of Dubai. They started out as a joint venture of Commerzbank, Chase Manhattan Bank and Commercial Bank of Kuwait. A minority stake was held by a few UAE businessmen.By 1982, little more than a decade later, CBD evolved into a National Public shareholding company. A feat complimented by an exponential increase in the capital base and mammoth restructuring of our operations. The feather in the cap came when the Government of Dubai became a key shareholder.Over the decades, CBD have transformed into a progressive and modern banking institution. It is supported by a sturdy financial base and reigned by a strong, stable management.
