Beneficiaries of the Sukuk’s will benefit from competitive profit rate, which are expected to vary between 7% and 7.25%, can either receive a monthly payment, or wait until the end of the Suk’s term to collect the amount in full.

Nevine Loutfy, managing director and CEO of NBD, said: “Launching these unique new products in the Egyptian market is a fulfillment of the promises we made over the last few months during our successful restructuring phase.

“The launch of these shari’a-compliant products is a step towards creating an even greater number of distinguished products and services, following up on the products that we have already launched such as Auto Murabha, which became one of the leaders in the Egyptian market in a very short space of time thanks to its meeting the needs of a large segment of the population and its compliance with shari’a regulations.”
