Naeem Iqbal

I am a senior banking professional with 19 years of experience across corporate, investment and commercial banking, holding an MBA from the Institute of Business Administration, Karachi. I have managed diversified portfolios and developed long-term relationships with Tier 1 and Tier 2 corporates across multiple sectors.

In my current role as Vice President, I manage a portfolio of approximately PKR 20.0 billion, originating and structuring deals for clients in textile, energy, steel, pharmaceutical, telecom and microfinance sectors. I focus on balancing client growth with asset quality through active portfolio analysis and risk monitoring.

Previously, I led commercial banking teams and managed middle-market and SME relationship managers, driving product sales, pipeline management and cross-sell strategies. My background includes roles at major international and local banks where I prepared credit proposals, implemented facilities and coordinated regulatory processes.

I combine strong interpersonal, selling, analytical and organizational skills with hands-on client engagement, including travel to industrial and remote sites to assess operations. I pursue continuous professional development in credit, structured trade finance, Islamic finance and compliance.
