Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) will hold a board meeting on January 21 to discuss a proposed dividend distribution to shareholders for the 2025 financial year, the bank said in a statement on January 16.

The board will review and approve final financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025, during the session. Directors will also set the date and agenda for the upcoming general assembly meeting.

The bank, which is listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange under the ticker ADIB, plans to address several strategic matters and other business items during the gathering.

ADIB has not disclosed the proposed dividend amount or provided details on its 2025 financial performance ahead of the board meeting. The bank typically announces dividend recommendations following board approval, subject to shareholder ratification at the general assembly.

The financial results and dividend proposal come as UAE Islamic banks continue to expand their market share in the federation's banking sector. ADIB operates across multiple markets in the Middle East and Asia, offering Sharia-compliant banking products and services.

The board meeting follows a year in which regional banks benefited from higher interest rates and sustained economic growth across the Emirates. Final approval of any dividend distribution requires endorsement from shareholders at the general assembly.
