This year's Ramadan shall bring joy to over 3.000 people thanks to a charitable campaigne of the Bank of the Year in the UAE - the United Arab Bank (UAB). Together with Awqaf & Minors' Affairs Foundation they will disburse meals during the holy month. Thus, they will become part of the giving spirit of the Ramadan and hope to make their contribution to the development of the society towards betterment.

Paul Trowbridge, the chief executive of United Arab Bank (UAB), notes that eccentricity is a virtue, pulling out the lender's newest Islamic credit card, printed vertically more than horizontally. He added that the bank has to work hard in order to get acknowledged, but the bank's advertising blitz is worth it.
It seems that the lender tried to be distinct through high-profile events such as enlisting Fabio Cannavaro, a former captain of the Italian national football team.
The bank extended its loan book last year and wants to conserve the pace of expansion with four branch openings this year.
