Banque Misr: Best Corporate Banking Team Egypt 2023

Banque Misr was founded by a pioneering Egyptian economist and has made significant contributions to the country’s socio-economic development over the past century. It was the first completely Egyptian-owned bank in the country and the first to meet international standards for secure payments processing. Banque Misr has been at the forefront of digital transformation among Egyptian financial institutions. It collaborates with fintech companies and multi-sector partners to expand digital offerings, promote financial inclusion and enable the transition to a cashless society. A dedicated corporate banking team helps entrepreneurs and MSMEs harness digital tools to take business to the next level. Corporate clients enjoy the ease of conducting transactions and managing accounts through the secure online platform. With a few simple clicks, they can schedule bulk payments, pay government agencies and make instant transfers. Merchants can accept contactless payments with the tap of the smartphone. The corporate banking team presents clients with financing options to cover working capital and business expansion, from conventional and Islamic financing to trade finance and syndicated financing. Trade finance solutions are facilitated by cross-border partnerships with correspondent banks, assisting Egyptian importers and exporters to compete at a global level. Banque Misr has become a market leader in arranging syndicated loans in Egypt — and a major player in the MENA region. The bank employs more than 20,000 professionals and serves over 13 million clients. The CFI.co judging panel presents Banque Misr with the 2023 award for Best Corporate Banking Team (Egypt).
