Emirates NBD charts next phase of India expansion after RBL deal


What kind of synergies do you anticipate between Emirates NBD and RBL?

Emirates NBD has over 900,000 NRI customers out of a total customer base of around 2.4 million, with Indians accounting for nearly 40% of our customers. Last year alone, we processed approximately $2.8-2.9 billion in retail remittances. With 4 million plus NRIs in the UAE and another 2.5 million in Saudi Arabia, where we also have a strong presence, we see a significant opportunity. By offering this customer base a seamless channel to remit, hold and invest their money in India, we can tap into a large, existing market.
