In every step forward, a story of strength is written
Pakistan's story is one of a vision of people who continue to rise with ambition. Across generations, this spirit has reached far beyond borders, leaving an impact across every walk of life.
Here in the UAE, the Pakistani community continues to be a powerful force of contribution. Their presence goes beyond numbers — it's felt in the energy they bring to every industry,
every neighbourhood, and every goal they pursue.
'The relationship between the UAE and Pakistan is more than diplomatic — it's deeply human, built on shared values and mutual respect,' says Ali Al Najjar, Chief Operating Officer at
Al Ansari Exchange. 'We are honoured to serve this dynamic community and proud to be part of their everyday financial journeys.'
Our services are built with this community in mind — reliable, fast, and designed to keep people close no matter the distance. As we look ahead, we remain dedicated to strengthening our partnership with the Pakistani community and contributing to their continued success. And as part of our appreciation, we are excited to launch our Summer Promotion, giving our customers the chance to win a brand-new Jetour T1 Car, Dh100,000 worth of travel vouchers and other exciting prizes. It's our way of saying thank you to a community that continues to inspire us every day.
While Pakistan celebrates freedom, we salute its enduring hope, the perseverance of its people, and the bright future that lies ahead. May this Independence Day be filled with pride and reflection.
