Dubai: Challenging global macro economic environment and sharp decline in oil prices will pose challenges to Dubai’s economy, but there is no immediate threat of a slowdown, said Dr. Mohamad Lahouel, Chief Economist of Dubai Economic Department (DED).

“Dubai’s economic growth has been steady in recent years despite high volatility in the international environment from lingering recession in the EU and in Japan, weakening of growth in main emerging markets, sharp drop in oil prices …
Still, Dubai’s adaptive capacity and its strong role as a trade hub promise to deliver healthy growth in 2015,” said Lahouel presenting Dubai’s economic outlook for 2015 at the UAE Economic Outlook Forum.

DED statistics show Dubai’s GDP grew at 4.6 per cent in 2013,4 per cent in 2014 (based on results for the first half and estimates for the second half) and is projected to grow at 4.5 per in 2015.

Trade, real estate services and manufacturing are expected to be the largest contributors to growth (58 per cent) in 2015. “Dubai’s economy is well diversified, stronger and more efficient than pre-crisis years. We are confident that the economy can withstand international markets volatility,” said Lahouel.

The recent sharp decline in oil prices, according to DED has both positive and negative implications for Dubai’s economy. On the positive side, it is expected to result in decrease in the cost of transportation boosting the number of travellers and possibly increased movement of goods. Tourism in general is expected to benefit because of the decreased cost of travel and higher purchasing power resulting from appreciating dollar.
