Maldives Islamic Bank

Maldives Islamic Bank PLC., the first and fully Shari’ah compliant bank in the Maldives is a collaboration between Islamic Corporation for the Development of the Private Sector (ICD), the private sector arm of the Islamic Development Bank Group (IsDB) and the Government of Maldives, represented by Ministry of Finance. The parties entered into an agreement on 04th October 2009 with a view to jointly develop and pioneer Islamic Banking services in the Maldives in line with principles of Shari’ah. We opened our doors to the public on the 7th of March 2011 with the opening of the main branch in Male’, the capital of Maldives and quickly followed suit by expanding into all major population centres of the nation. We now operate with 6 branches in 5 atolls across the country. We have been listed on Maldives Stock Exchange as the only full-fledged Islamic bank in Maldives since November 2019. Today, 20% of our share capital is owned by the general public, in line with our principle of increasing public participation in the Bank’s ownership.
Incorporated as a Private Limited Company, MIB was brought to inception with the intention of providing an alternative to the public and businesses who wish to avail themselves to banking transactions and dealings in strict compliance to Islamic banking principles. The primary goal was to offer the people of Maldives the opportunity to be a part of the fast-growing Islamic banking community worldwide. We are an active participant in the development and promotion of a viable Islamic economics and financial system in the Maldives which adheres to the highest ethical standards and values.
We provide full range of Shari’ah compliant deposit products and financing solutions catering to the general public, both individuals and businesses. From a humble beginning, we currently provide our services through a branch network of 06, 09 ECRMs and 14 ATMs across 09 different island locations to meet the growing demand and to facilitate Islamic banking convenience throughout the country. In our continuous effort to provide better access and convenience to our customers, we have expanded our alternative distribution channels through Automated Teller Machines (ATM) network, Point of Sale (POS) terminals at various merchant outlets and via our online banking service, FaisaNet and FaisaMobile. We constantly strive to exceed customers’ expectations by proactively developing long-term relationships and through constantly introducing modern banking services.
