The bank, contrary to many of its competitors, is expanding its operations gradually maintaining its profitability with solid growth at a time when bigger banks are struggling to increase profits.

Last year, the bank enhanced its shareholding to 100 percent shares in its subsidiary. It acquired 2.99 million shares from an individual named Razi-ur-Rehman Khan, and 50 percent shareholding, i.e. 7.5 million shares from Islamic Investment Company of the Gulf (Bahamas) – a related party of Faysal Bank- at a rate of PKR 30 per share.

Now, the management, on the behalf of the bank, has made an injection of half a billion rupees in the subsidiary.
