BoB seeks permission to reopen old branches

"The reopening of branches in Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain will help boost our presence in the UAE," BoB's chief executive of GCC Operations Ashok Kumar Gupta said.     

Today the market conditions are different. The UAE and India are booming economies and offer plenty of growth opportunities, Gupta said, adding the branches were running at a loss for several years in a row and therefore was compelled to shut down.     

BoB is currently operating six branches in the UAE
