Doing Business in Dubai’s Economy with Virtual Numbers
According to the Dubai Statistics Center, the economy of Dubai witnessed a growth of 4.5 percent in 2015 when compared to the previous year. Dubai’s economy is dubbed as the one of the world’s fastest growing economies, and had a GDP of US $107.1 billion in 2014. That is a pretty hefty amount for any city. Dubai is a world class mecca for style and glamour as well. There is not a city in the world that matches Dubai in regards to sights to see and things to do.
Even though a lot of trading infrastructure of Dubai was built on the oil industry, the natural gas and oil revenues contribute less than 5 percent to the economy of this city. Some of the other major contributors to its economy are real estate and construction, financial services, trade, and tourism.
Dubai’s economy has been described by the International Herald Tribune as “centrally-planned free-market capitalism”. Dubai has a gold-exchange market, and thus, it was the center of “brisk smuggling trade” right until the 1990s.
Property in Dubai became more valuable when the government decided to diversify its economy from an oil-based, trade-reliant one to a service-driven, and tourism-oriented economy. The Burj Khalifa, the Burj Al Arab, and the Emirates Towers, were constructed during this time. They are super tall and Dubai has a skyline that is simply marvelous. Dubai is based on capitalism.
However, during the Great Recession in 2009, not only did the economic climate slow down, but property values, employment, and construction in Dubai was also greatly affected. The economy of Dubai is slowly but surely recovering from this recession period today. In fact, due to the wholesale and retail trade sectors as well as the travel and tourism sectors, the private sector in Dubai has bounced back to its earlier heights, after a seven month low in October 2016.
