Hana Al Rostamani

The first female chief executive officer of a major lender in the United Arab Emirates, Al Rostamani has broken new ground. What’s more, First Abu Dhabi Bank is the largest in the region, with more than $300 billion in total assets. Al Rostamani has more than 25 years of experience in banking and financial services, and she is having an impact beyond the bottom line: She has committed to issuing $75 billion in “sustainable” financing (for cleaner energy sources, transportation, food, and other areas) by 2030.
