For its survey, FTSE Global Markets interviewed over 100 Asset Managers across the Middle East and North Africa on a range of issues and product categories key to investors in the region. In total, 64 banks received votes but only those which received at least 15% of the vote in each category qualified for ranking, with AUB emerging the overall frontrunner in the final ranking, ahead of all other leading regional institutions participating in the survey. The full survey results will be published in the forthcoming September issue of the magazine.
