About Arab Banking Corporation SA Zweigniederlassung Frankfurt

Arab Banking Corporation SA Zweigniederlassung Frankfurt is the Frankfurt branch of Arab Banking Corporation S.A., part of the Bank ABC Group, operating as a wholesale-focused unit that primarily serves corporate and institutional clients rather than retail customers. The branch typically offers trade finance (documentary credits, guarantees, supply-chain solutions), bilateral and syndicated corporate lending, cash management and payments (including SEPA and cross-border), treasury and foreign exchange services, and correspondent banking for financial institutions, with availability and terms set on a relationship and risk-based basis. Account opening is generally limited to eligible professional clients and legal entities and involves extensive KYC/AML documentation and onboarding procedures that reflect group and regulatory standards. Pricing is negotiated and not usually published as retail tariffs; fees, margins, and covenants depend on credit profile, transaction structure, and volume. Digital access is oriented to corporate channels such as secure web portals, SWIFT connectivity, and host-to-host interfaces; consumer mobile apps and walk-in counter services are not a focus. As a branch of a foreign credit institution, it is subject to host-state oversight by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank for local conduct and reporting, while prudential supervision and any deposit guarantee arrangements are determined by the home supervisor and home-country scheme; prospective clients should confirm whether deposits are accepted at the branch and, if so, the applicable protection and eligibility. The branch operates under EU and German regulatory requirements on capital, liquidity, conduct, AML/CTF, and sanctions compliance, with enhanced controls for trade-related flows. Its franchise is geared to companies active in Europe–MENA trade corridors and to financial institutions seeking correspondent capabilities, with a limited physical footprint in Germany and no mass-market retail proposition; relationship-manager coverage, standard business-day service windows in Frankfurt, and documentation-heavy onboarding can be expected.
