I first joined Al Rayan Bank as a Know Your Customer (KYC) Analyst, before being given the opportunity to step up as a KYC Team Leader when the Centre of Excellence team was first created.

Al Rayan Bank, the UK’s most successful Sharia-compliant bank, recorded double digit growth in total assets in the year ending 31 December 2024 as the bank continued to expand its financing books in commercial property finance (CPF) and premier banking.

The Bank reached £2.84 billion in assets – up 14 per cent on the previous year – with pre-tax profits reaching £23.47 million, the second highest financial performance in its history.
