Dubai, UAE
Yacin Mahieddine, Partner in the Global Financial Services practice at Arthur D. Little said "The UAE’s approach to banking isn’t just about staying competitive; it’s about setting a global standard. With the Central Bank’s digital currency initiative and groundbreaking strides in blockchain integration, the UAE is redefining what it means to be a modern financial hub. This isn’t just a trend—it’s a structural shift, and it will ripple across markets globally. The UAE is building a banking ecosystem where technology and customer-centricity are woven into its very fabric."
With a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.7% over the past two years, the UAE’s digital banking sector has accelerated faster than any of its neighbours, with continued growth projected at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2024 to 2029. The sector is on track to reach $175.7 billion by 2029. UAE banks are advancing through cutting-edge AI, blockchain, and cloud technologies, setting a new standard for customer experience and operational efficiency.
Nelson Danam, Principal and a member of the Global Financial Services Practice at Arthur D. Little commented "The UAE’s banking transformation is as much about mindset as it is about technology. The willingness to adopt AI, blockchain, and advanced fintech solutions speaks to a culture that embraces change at every level. By investing in both innovation and the talent to drive it, UAE banks aren’t just catching up to global standards; they’re challenging them. The next generation of digital banking is being shaped right here in the UAE, and it’s a model that others will look to replicate."
