BOB Finance is a Lebanese financial company founded in 2009 that focuses on money transfers. It is an accredited Western Union agent and is licensed by Banque du Liban. Its network is large: more than 850 points across Lebanon, including over 37 full branches, so it is one of the easier places to send or collect money outside the big cities. Customers can move money in local or foreign currency, pay and collect bills, and withdraw cash instantly in the currency they choose. In late 2022 it announced a partnership with Bank of Beirut that links its transfer services to the bank's digital tools for businesses, and it now runs separate apps for individuals and for business customers. Michael Abdel Noor is named as managing director.
