Middle East’s best transaction bank for financial institutions 2026: Mashreq

Mashreq has built its financial institutions (FI) franchise around a unique advantage for a Middle Eastern bank: direct access to US dollar clearing through its New York branch, with direct membership of Fedwire and CHIPS. The bank combines that infrastructure with AED clearing, trade finance, liquidity management and specialist services, giving financial institutions a broader relationship than conventional correspondent banking.  

That proposition is backed by considerable international reach. Mashreq supports approximately 500 financial institutions through US dollar and AED vostro relationships across more than 75 markets where it does not have a physical presence.
