Mashreq Business Account Opening

Key points

If Mashreq is not the right fit for your profile, we say so and introduce you to a bank that is, because a well-matched submission is approved faster. GoldenKey prepares a one-page business profile, a projected cash-flow summary and a document pack in the format Mashreq relationship managers expect. Mashreq is known for digital-first onboarding, start-up friendly packages, fast account decisions and integrated payment solutions, and for that reason we shortlist it for companies with that profile. Having a UAE residence visa and Emirates ID for at least one signatory makes a Mashreq application noticeably smoother.
