The event concluded with a Doa Kesyukuran in conjunction with the 30th anniversary milestone. His Majesty paved the way for Islamic banking industry in Brunei Darussalam with the announcement of the conversion of the International Bank of Brunei into the Islamic Bank of Brunei (IBB) on January 13, 1993. In 2005, with the consent of His Majesty, IBB merged with the Islamic Development Bank of Brunei (IDBB) to create BIBD. Over the past 30 years, BIBD has continued its commitment to contributing to Brunei Darussalam’s nation-building efforts as the custodian of the Islamic banking industry. The bank has a long-standing history of supporting the government in achieving Brunei Vision 2035, both through its business practices as well as the bank’s community-based initiatives such as BIBD Special Entrepreneurial Empowerment and Development Scheme (SEED) and BIBD ALAF. BIBD has also been a strong supporter of the development of local micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) through its SME360 service. BIBD continues to serve the people of Brunei Darussalam through its network of physical branches combined with its comprehensive suite of digital banking and payment platforms.
