Dubai, UAE – [13/02/2025] – Strive Consultants is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Wio Bank, the UAE’s first fully digital platform bank, aimed at transforming the way entrepreneurs and international investors open and manage their business bank accounts in Dubai.
This collaboration is more than a convenience; it's a significant leap forward in creating frictionless business setup experiences for our clients, especially high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), family offices, and ambitious founders entering the UAE market.
Why Business Banking Has Always Been the Bottleneck
When establishing a company in Dubai, even the most prepared entrepreneurs face one frustrating challenge: opening a corporate bank account.
While the UAE offers one of the world’s most attractive business environments, its banking sector has traditionally been complex, paperwork-heavy, and slow-moving, especially for foreign-owned businesses.
Common pain points include:
- Long approval timelines (often weeks to months)
- Extensive document requests and back-and-forth communication
- Uncertainty in meeting compliance and KYC requirements
- Limited access to modern banking tools for fast-growing businesses
For many, this delay not only stalls operations but can also cause missed opportunities.
How the Wio Bank Partnership Changes the Game
Through our official partner status with Wio Bank, Strive clients will now enjoy:
- Priority onboarding for new corporate accounts
- A fully digital application process no need for multiple branch visits
- Same-day account activation for qualifying businesses
- Access to Wio’s intuitive platform, designed specifically for entrepreneurs
- Real-time expense tracking and easy integration with business tools
- Multi-user account access for directors, finance teams, and partners
In short: what used to take weeks can now be achieved in a fraction of the time, without sacrificing compliance or security.
The Future of Business Banking in Dubai is Digital
Wio Bank is redefining UAE business banking by merging the security of a fully licensed financial institution with the efficiency of a fintech platform.
