Barclays
Launches Dubai Mortgages
Dubai
02 May 2006:
Barclays Bank today announced the launch of
mortgages in Dubai that have been specifically
designed to meet the requirements of buyers in
the Emirate’s booming property market. The
new mortgage range will be available in four
different currencies (UAE dirhams, pounds
sterling, Euro and US dollars) and will be
approved within 24 hours. Barclays will be
the first mortgage provider in Dubai to offer
customers an extensive number of currency
options and quick mortgage approval.
David
Roberts, board member of Barclays PLC and chief
executive of the bank’s International Retail and
Commercial Banking operations, said; “Barclays
has clearly stated its international ambitions
and Dubai is an attractive, fast growing market
in which Barclays wishes to grow. Today’s
launch of new mortgage products in Dubai is a
tangible example of how we are using our proven
global expertise and competitive advantage to
develop innovative product propositions that
benefit our existing and new clients.”
In February
2006, Barclays announced its intention to
increase the proportion of profits it generates
from outside the UK to 50 per cent within three
years, from 40 per cent in 2005. The new
mortgages will be offered by the banks
international retail arm, International Retail
and Commercial Banking, which is focused on
growing Barclays presence in attractive markets,
including Dubai. International Retail and
Commercial banking operates in 21 countries with
over 10 million customers and 46,000 employees.
Barclays is
offering the following mortgage products to UAE
residents
and
non residents:
-
Owner-occupiers wishing to buy a completed
home ready to move in
-
Off Plan
Buyers looking at homes that are planned or
under construction
-
Buy-to-Let mortgages for prospective
landlords
Philip Ward,
Barclays’ Head of Mortgages in Dubai says “Dubai
is maturing into a home-owning environment, and
Barclays expects to shake up the market with its
strong product range and customer-focused
service levels. By bringing our experience,
multi currency and service driven approach that
has been developed over many years, we are
confident that our mortgages will be very
attractive to Dubai home buyers, whether home
owners or investors.”
Barclays is
one of the world’s leading banks and Barclays
has the largest presence of any UK bank in the
European non resident mortgage market, serving
mortgage customers through its operations in
Spain, France, Portugal and Italy. Barclays is
also one of the UK’s leading mortgage providers
with a mortgage book of GBP 59.6 billion (AED
387.4 billion) and the leading mortgage provider
in South Africa following its acquisition of a
majority state in Absa. Building on this
experience, today’s announcement further
strengthens Barclays international mortgage
credentials, with the addition of Dubai to its
portfolio.
Barclays
mortgages in Dubai will be available from a
minimum
of AED 500,000
up to a maximum of AED 7.5 million, in
areas where all nationalities are allowed to own
residential property.
All mortgages
will be available in four different currencies –
UAE dirhams, pounds sterling, Euro and US
dollars. For sterling, dollar and euro loans,
customers are expected to have an income source
in the same currency. Thereafter, the principle
will be sanctioned and drawn down in AED and
then converted to the foreign currency.
In another
benefit, a team of expert mobile Barclays
mortgage advisors will meet customers to discuss
the best mortgage for their requirements. The
Advisors will travel around Dubai in
Barclays-branded Minis. Loan approvals will be
made within 24 hours, at competitive interest
rates (all rates indicated below are variable
rates).
Mr Wards
adds; “With the recently announced changes
in the property law ownership in Dubai,
specifically with regards to non resident
ownership, and the ongoing highly positive
economic climate in Dubai, we believe that now
is exactly the right time to bring our breadth
of international mortgage experience to this
market”. “We have examined the marketplace in
great detail, and we believe that our products
will hit the right note with prospective buyers”
