Emerald Bank started its operations on July 2001 as a locally-owned,
independent bank servicing the Kurdish community of northern Iraq. The first branch was located in Dohuk city, not very far from the Turkish border. Despite the risky situation and the multiple barriers prevailing at that time, Emerald Bank succeeded in offering various banking services including money transfers through intermediates in Turkey.
In September 2003, Emerald Bank established its
Headquarters and Main Branch in the capital, Erbil, and continued to expand its various product offerings.
Following the cautious strategy adopted by its management, and thanks to its policy of strong internal growth based on the trust of its clients, Emerald Bank achieved good results and ranked the best private bank in the Kurdish region.
In 2006, Emerald entered in an ambitious program of branch openings in order to serve its ever-growing customer base and increase its geographical coverage.
Today, Emerald Bank is well positioned for future growth and success.
