RECOGNISING THE MOST GROUND-BREAKING DEALS FROM THE MIDDLE EAST
DOWNLOAD A NOMINATION FORMSince 2015 the Bonds, Loans & Sukuk Middle East Awards has been recognising the most innovative and ground-breaking deals from Sovereign, Corporate and Financial Institution issuers and borrowers in the Middle East. The exhaustive selection process involves close examination of deal size, tenor, structure, and distribution; analysis and background of the borrower and their accessibility to financing; with extra credit for those deals demonstrating high quality execution, accessing new pools of liquidity, innovative structuring, and opening-up new markets.
