In 2007, National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) - the best bank in the Middle East and highest rated by international rating agencies - acquired AWB to start operations in Egypt for the first time, which marks a new milestone in the regional expansion of NBK. After the acquisition in 2007 NBK kept the bank’s name as AWB, only adding “A Subsidiary of NBK Group” to the logo, until mid-2014 when the bank name and logo changed to NBK. When the bank was acquired by NBK its number of branches was 24, soon after the acquisition NBK adopted a strategic expansion plan which increased the number of branches to reach 52 branches and a total number of 150 ATMs in 2020, which are all strategically located in the most vibrant spots across the country, from Cairo and Alexandria, to Giza, Mansoura and Sohag.
