She disclosed that establishment of MEYDAN FZ entity is one of the steps which will boost the investor confidence.”

Highlighting the Investment Fund, Mabel, said: “By creating investment fund, we can organize the companies under a corporate umbrella, this will allow us to hire high-level professionals, who are too expensive for a single company, but by having the holding company, can quickly provide services to each of the subsidiaries.”

She echoed that UAE government has undertaken major initiatives to attract foreign investment and to make UAE a global business hub. Speaking about some of these steps she said, “The visionary leadership of this country has taken many steps to make UAE a global business hub for the entrepreneurs and few steps like allowing 100% foreign-owned businesses offering extended visas for entrepreneurs, providing funding and support for smaller businesses and attract international businesses to the region would further boost UAE’s economic growth landscape.”

Elaborating further about her expansion plans, Mabel added, “We have our headquarters in Dubai because we believe that this city has given us the right ingredients to house international companies that we operate from here. With little state intervention there is a lot of management freedom. The city provides very good legal security and low tax pressure.

We plan to buy mines in Chile, mines in Zambia, and dedicate ourselves to mineral exploration in Paraguay.
