No direct experience of any UAE bank's other than First Abu Dhabi (to be honest it's the only one I'd consider touching in the entire region) and...
I've had no problem moving funds between the UK and First Abu Dhabi Bank recently. Mind you, it's only been small sums (<£50k). What sort of sums...
Yeah, but unlike the other Mickey Mouse tax havens (almost all small islands located in warm seas) the UAE is a big player on the international...
