Alternatively, they can actually sketch the logo design through using the app.
Emirates NBD was formed in 2007 following the merger between Emirates Bank International and National Bank of Dubai to form a banking champion, capable of delivering enhanced value across corporate, retail, Islamic and investment banking across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. Emirates NBD is celebrating its 50th anniversary celebrations this year, based on the establishment of National Bank of Dubai - one of its constituent banks.
National Bank of Dubai can trace its origins back to 1963, as the first National bank established in the UAE by a leading group of Dubai-based merchants in order to support the growing prosperity in the emirate following the discovery of oil. Emirates Bank International, Emirates NBD’s other constituent bank was first established in 1977 as Union Bank of the Middle East. It changed its name to Emirates Bank International following a merger and restructuring in 1983.
