History
anb established a branch in Jeddah in 1979. One of the founders is Prince Khalid, son of Prince Turki bin Abdulaziz. Early on, both the Governments of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait took on small stakes in anb of about 10 per cent each. Despite this and despite being pan-Arab in its orientation, anb was unable to escape the policy limiting foreign ownership. In 1980, it transferred its six branches to the newly created anb. Arab National had a service agreement with anb that expired in 1988 and was not renewed. Arab Bank owns 40 per cent of the bank and some 5000 Saudi shareholders own 60 per cent. In 2002, the Governments of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait own about eight per cent of anb between them. anb has opened a branch in London. Its largest shareholder (40%) is Arab Bank and headquartered in Amman, Jordan.
