In a new achievement that reflects the bank’s ambitious vision and rapid growth, Suez Canal Bank has won two awards from British magazine International Finance, including “Fastest Growing Bank – Egypt 2025″ – Egypt 2025” and “Fastest Growing Corporate Bank – Egypt 2025”.
This international recognition is a testament to the bank’s ongoing efforts to provide innovative banking services and products that meet the expectations of all customer segments, as well as to expand the development of flexible digital and credit solutions.
The bank was selected to win these awards based on a set of criteria and a thorough study by a qualified research team to evaluate the performance and exceptional achievements of institutions.
Suez Canal Bank has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, particularly in the corporate finance sector, where it has built a strong and diverse customer base, grown its credit portfolio while maintaining asset quality, and provided innovative financing solutions that support various vital sectors of the national economy.
It is worth noting that the net corporate loan portfolio increased by 22% to reach EGP 84.8 billion at the end of June 2025, compared to EGP 69.7 billion at the end of 2024. The growth in the loan portfolio came as a result of the diversification of financing in various sectors, such as agriculture, contracting, financial services, real estate and tourism, which led to risk distribution and diversification of the bank’s portfolio clients.
In this context, Mr. Akef Al-Maghrabi, CEO and Managing Director of Suez Canal Bank, said that this estimate reflects the success of the bank’s strategy, which focuses on expansion and sustainable growth, as well as its keenness to open new horizons for future cooperation with partners by providing credit facilities that enable them to expand their business and achieve their strategic objectives, which in turn contributes to driving economic growth.
Al-Maghrabi pointed out that this achievement is thanks to the efforts of the bank’s team, who are the main driving force behind every success, and to all customers for their growing confidence in Suez Canal Bank.
