Emirates NBD, the largest bank by assets in Dubai, has paid AED6.3 billion ($1.7 billion) in dividends for 2025.

The payment was completed on March 2, the lender said in a statement to the Dubai Financial Market, which reopened on Wednesday.

The bank had proposed an ordinary dividend of 100 fils per share in January. This was approved by shareholders at the general assembly meeting on February 17.

Emirates NBD reported a 4 percent year-on-year increase in net profit to AED24 billion for 2025. Total income rose 12 percent to AED49 billion.

In January India’s competition regulator gave the green light to its plan to acquire a majority stake in RBL Bank. 

Emirates NBD, which is part-owned by the Investment Corporation of Dubai, agreed last October to take a 60 percent share in the Indian private lender for $3 billion through a preferential issue.

Shares in Emirates NBD fell by 5 percent on DFM on Wednesday – as did many other blue-chip stocks traded in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Both exchanges imposed a 5 percent limit for the first day of trading since conflict broke out in the Gulf.

The bank’s shares stand at AED31.35, up 17 percent in the year to date.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
