Since its establishment in 1968 as the first local bank in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the bank has developed into one of the country's leading financial institutions, earning the loyal support of broad and diversified customer base providing banking services of the highest quality to the local UAE population and international corporations alike.

Within the UAE, NBAD has the largest retail banking network currently consisting of 37 branches and cash offices and constantly expanding to outlying areas of the country. This makes it possible for the bank to offer its product and service capabilities throughout all areas of the Emirates. Automated Teller Machines have been installed at almost all of the branches and Electronic Funds Transfer at Point of Sale has been introduced by way of CASHPLUS, and Visa Card, the first REAL Dirham Credit Card, was introduced in the latter part of 1992.

In its 25th year, National Bank of Abu Dhabi looks forward to the future with optimism and confidence as a leading financial institution to provide superior quality banking services in its domestic and international relations.
