CLIENT CHALLENGES
- The client is one of the top three financial institutions and one of the largest retail lenders in the UAE; Acuity Knowledge Partners has been in a partnership with its investment banking division since 2011 :
- The goal was to set up an offshore platform to free up the bandwidth of the bankers onshore to focus on value-added tasks
- The client wanted to productively utilise in-house onshore talent for client-facing activities and exploring new opportunities in the investment banking space.
