Ajman Bank has been recognised as one of the winners at the prestigious MEA Finance Banking Technology Awards 2025, held on 8 May at the Armani Hotel, Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Now in its fifth year, the awards celebrate excellence in banking innovation and digital transformation across the Middle East and Africa, attracting over 300 senior banking and fintech leaders.

Commenting on the achievement, Mr. Mustafa Al Khalfawi, CEO of Ajman Bank, said: “We are honoured to receive this prestigious award. It is a testament to the strength of our transformation strategy and the dedication of our team. This recognition reflects our customers’ trust and our ongoing commitment to providing seamless, secure, and inclusive digital banking experiences. We remain focused on driving innovation in the UAE’s financial ecosystem through speed, service, and specialisation.”

Organised by MEA Finance Magazine, the awards are widely considered a benchmark for excellence in banking technology. Winners were selected by an expert panel based on criteria including innovation, strategic impact, and execution.

The award specifically recognises Ajman Bank’s achievement in “Best Cloud Implementation,” a milestone that has significantly enhanced the overall user experience by delivering faster, more seamless digital services. The adoption of cloud technologies has also opened new, dynamic channels of engagement with customers – redefining convenience, connectivity, and responsiveness in Islamic banking.

This accolade further cements Ajman Bank’s standing as a digitally agile Islamic bank. The bank’s achievements include the successful launch of digital-first services such as instant account opening, fully digital credit card issuance, and collaborations with global fintech and

payment platforms. These efforts support the Bank’s strategic objectives around financial inclusion, sustainable growth, and the Ajman Vision 2030.
