Oxford Business Group report credits Dubai's pro-business attitude

Dubai: Oxford Business Group (OBG), a global publishing, research and consultancy firm, has launched The Report: Dubai 2008, the latest of its annual business guides to the emirate.

Rated as the premier guide to Dubai, the publication features a series of exclusive interviews with leading political and economic figures in the emirate, including top officials from Dubai Airports, RTA, ENOC, Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Dubai Duty Free, as well as the former prime minister of France, among others.

The report describes Dubai as a pro-business city based on solid convictions and strong commitments to override any challenge that is an outcome of global economic or political upheavals.

The report also offers a comprehensive and detailed assessment of Dubai's opportunities for growth, the economic challenges, which lay ahead, and the overall attractiveness of the emirate for investors.

It is a 200-page publication that provides a complex guide to the many facets of Dubai, including its macroeconomics, infrastructure, political landscape, banking and sectoral developments, and is considered the most comprehensive intelligence review produced on the emirate.

It was published with primary research partner the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and also with the National Bank of Dubai as banking partner, the Millennium Finance Corporation as capital markets partner, Holman Fenwick Willan as legal partner and Grant Thornton as accountancy partner.
