Why Dubai?
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), located strategically between the
Far East and Europe, is the ideal base for carrying out business in
the Middle East. A significant number of multinational corporations
have chosen Dubai as the headquarters for their Middle East,
North Africa, and Asian Subcontinent operations.
Dubai is the second largest of the seven Emirates that make up the UAE, and is the leading industrial, commercial and trading centre of the Middle East serving a market of more than one billion people. The market is rich and buoyant, and Dubai’s location on the UAE coast makes it ideally placed for the transportation of goods and services to the European and Far Eastern markets. Dubai’s two main ports, Port Rashid and Jebel Ali, have led to a successful re-export business to nearby Gulf States, the Indian subcontinent, Africa, and the CIS countries.
Dubai has adopted a relatively low level of business and market regulations to encourage investment in the non-oil commercial sector. This has been done to reduce dependence on oil revenues, and as a result the non-oil economy has a growth rate that rivals any of the world’s top performing economies. This in turn has lead to the development of a world-class service sector, with top accounting, advertising, consultancy, communications, financial, and hospitality services.
A number of free trade zones have been set up in Dubai, initially with the establishment of the Jebel Ali Free Zone, which are estimated to have in excess of 4,000 companies operating with an investment of more than AED15 billion. In recent years a number of industry specific free zones have been established in sectors such as technology, healthcare, media, textiles, auto, and outsourcing. The duty-free status of these free zones combined with 100% foreign ownership has made them a huge success.
