Customer Centric Vision

Offering a total lifecycle approach to retail and corporate clients, including the growing SME sector, Bank Sohar provides a comprehensive and flexible range of products and services while adhering to the highest standards of integrity.

Bank Sohar has witnessed steady growth establishing itself as one of the most prominent banks in the country. As a matter of fact, the bank’s assets, since inception, have grown by a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 20 per cent. More recently, the bank also reported a 31.24 per cent growth in net profit for the six months period ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period last year.

Bank Sohar’s strategies, customer and community focused approach, and financial strength have earned countless awards and recognitions over these past ten years. These range from excellence in performance, products and service quality, customer service, social media, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), each of which serves as a testament of the bank’s commitment to uphold excellence in all its endeavours.

Satisfaction is the key
