Wio Bank said on Monday it has crossed Dhs50bn ($13.6bn) in customer deposits, less than three years after its launch, as digital banking adoption accelerates across the UAE.
The Abu Dhabi-based digital bank said deposits have nearly doubled year-on-year, reflecting a strong shift in how individuals and businesses in the country manage their finances. The milestone underscores Wio’s growing role in the UAE’s push to become a global fintech hub.
Wio’s customer base expanded 72 per cent over the past year, driven by a 93 per cent rise in personal banking customers and 42 per cent growth in business clients.
