Commercial Bank of Dubai (CBD) – Introduction and background |
 |
Commercial Bank of Dubai (CBD) is one of the UAE’s largest commercial banks, offering a full range of retail, corporate and institutional banking services from its base in Deira, Dubai.
Established by decree in 1969 as a joint venture between Commerzbank, Chase Manhattan Bank and the Commercial Bank of Kuwait, CBD transitioned into a national public shareholding company in 1982. By 2024 the bank managed total assets exceeding AED 163 billion and is known for its standalone digital banking brand CBD Now.
Commercial Bank of Dubai has been listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) under the ticker CBD since April 2003. The Investment Corporation of Dubai holds approximately 20% of outstanding shares, with Al-Futtaim Private Company and Orient Insurance other significant institutional shareholders. The broad ownership structure and active free float make CBD one of the more accessible mid-to-large cap banking stocks on the DFM, though as with all bank shares, performance is subject to credit cycle risk, interest rate movements and the wider UAE economic environment.

Investing in CFDs involves a high degree of risk that you will lose your money due to the use of leverage, particularly in fast moving markets, where a relatively small movement in the price can lead to a proportionately larger movement in the value of your investment. This can result in loses that exceed the funds in your account. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and you should seek independent advice if necessary.
