Dubai Islamic Bank posted a 26 per cent rise in net profit fot 2023, which the largest Islamic bank in the UAE attributed to higher non-funded income and lower impairment charges. The profit boost also prompted the lender to propose a dividend of 45 per cent of its earnings.
Group net profit came in at Dh7.01 billion for the year ending December 31, 2023, compared to Dh5.55 billion. This was helped by lower impairment charges of Dh1.396 billion against Dh2.103 billion in FY 2022, down by 34 per cent. Also, customer deposits increased to Dh222 billion, up 12 per cent from last year.
