DUBAI, May 29, 2015: In this uncertain world of globalization and emerging markets, Dubai’s economic
and cultural growth is supported by a legal and regulatory framework developed to encourage
significant local and international business creativity. The willingness of international businesses to set
up and operate in Dubai, and the success of local Dubai businesses is a clear indication of Dubai’s robust
and dynamic legal and regulatory framework. Recovery from the financial crisis is well underway –
stalled construction projects are being restarted and major infrastructure initiatives including hospitals,
roads, port facilities, railways and airport extensions are proceeding. M&A deals in the Middle East and
North Africa (MENA) region have picked up in certain sectors such as telecom, hospitality and retail.
Litigation and arbitration in the construction sector arising from the financial crisis continues to keep
firms busy.
