The document provides an overview of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) economy, including:
1) The UAE has transitioned from a largely undeveloped economy to one with a GDP comparable to industrialized nations due to large oil revenues, which allowed the country to invest heavily in infrastructure.
2) The economy has become more diversified with growing sectors like banking, tourism, and real estate, though oil still accounts for about 30% of GDP.
3) Data on starting a business in the UAE is presented, noting procedures, time, and costs required to formally operate a business.

This document discusses structural changes in economies and their effects on economic growth. It defines structural change as long-term, widespread changes to an economy's fundamental structure. Structural changes include shifts from agriculture to industry and services, reallocation of labor to more productive sectors, and development of modern industries. The document analyzes patterns of structural change in different regions from 1970-2003, finding the most dynamic changes in East Asia through industrialization and capital investment. Countries that did not undergo substantial structural changes, like many in Africa, saw less economic growth.
Malaysia has a population of 28.96 million people and its economy is dominated by rubber and palm oil processing, manufacturing, and mining. The country experienced consistent growth between the 1960s and 1980s but was impacted by a recession in the early 1980s that depressed commodity prices and increased foreign debt. However, increased diversification into manufacturing helped renew growth. Currently the economy remains vulnerable to external shocks but high-skilled manufacturing and a stable political environment have supported continued economic expansion.
Malaysia has a population of 29.8 million people and its capital is Kuala Lumpur. Its GDP was $190.31 billion in 2011, making it the 3rd largest economy in Southeast Asia. Malaysia has a highly open economy that exports electrical appliances, electronics, palm oil, and natural gas. Its major trade partners are China, Japan, the US and Singapore. The Malaysian Ringgit is the national currency. The economy has diversified from primarily producing tin, rubber and palm oil to include industries like electronics manufacturing and tourism. Services make up the largest sector of the economy at 46.8% of GDP, followed by industry at 41.2% and agriculture at 11.9%. The economy is
Public policy and trade liberalisation in nigerian economic developmentAlexander Decker
This document discusses public policy and trade liberalization in Nigerian economic development. It provides background on Nigeria's trade policies since 1986, which centered on greater market openness and integration into the global economy. It analyzes the impacts of specific trade liberalization policies like trade openness, privatization, investment flows, and import tariffs on Nigeria's economic development. The analysis finds that trade liberalization has not had a positive impact on Nigeria's economic development. Accountability, transparency, and good governance are recommended to improve economic policy and encourage self-reliance through export promotion and import substitution.
The document summarizes key information about Pakistan's economy. It states that Pakistan has the 26th largest economy by PPP and 44th largest by nominal GDP. The economy has grown at an average of 4.14% annually and per capita income is $3,144, ranking 140th globally. However, Pakistan faces challenges such as a low savings rate, high imports, energy shortages, and security issues that impact the business environment.
This document provides an overview of China's economic development from 1979 to the present. It discusses how China implemented economic reforms beginning in 1979, including establishing special economic zones, decentralizing economic policymaking, encouraging private businesses and foreign investment. As a result of these reforms, China's economy has grown substantially faster than during the pre-reform period, with an average annual growth rate of around 10% between 1979-2010. China has become the world's second largest economy and largest exporter, achieving unprecedented economic growth and dramatically improving living standards.

Marketing Nigeria Through Cotton: The Golden Goose PlanErnest Aleshinloye
This document proposes promoting Nigeria's cotton industry to boost the economy. Cotton is currently an important cash crop for millions of farmers worldwide. It can generate income for rural households and contribute to food security. For developing countries, cotton production and trade play a significant role in the national economy and agriculture sector. Exporting cotton and cotton textiles can earn foreign exchange and support employment in manufacturing. The document argues cotton has strong potential for economic growth in Nigeria and could become the number one cash crop, drawing foreign investment.
The document compares the economies of Singapore and Malaysia and analyzes their strategies and challenges over time. It discusses:
1. Singapore achieved rapid economic growth through strategic government policies that attracted foreign investment, developed infrastructure, and mobilized human capital.
2. Malaysia transitioned from an export-based economy focused on raw materials like tin and rubber to industrialization in the late 20th century. It aimed to diversify its economy and reduce dependence on commodity exports.
3. Both countries face ongoing challenges in maintaining competitiveness against rising economies like China and India, and in addressing issues like aging populations and low birth rates. They continue investing in high-tech industries and developing skilled workforces.
Economic environment and nature of economic and its policesabhay kumar jain
This document discusses the economic structure and policies of India. It defines developing economies as those with low income per capita and slower industrialization, like India. The economy is classified into primary, secondary, and tertiary sectors based on agriculture, manufacturing, and services. Key policies discussed include industrial policy which now only requires licensing for a few sectors, trade policy aimed at restricting imports, monetary policy set by the central bank, and fiscal policy involving taxation. The government plays regulatory, promotional, entrepreneurial, and planning roles in the economy.
structural transformation in Ethiopia: Enhancing the transition from Agrarian...frankbill
This document discusses Ethiopia's development strategies and structural transformation. It provides background on Agricultural Development Led Industrialization (ADLI), Ethiopia's initial strategy to achieve growth through agricultural transformation. While ADLI has helped reduce poverty and increase growth, the industrial sector share remains low. The document argues for a policy transition from ADLI to industrialization-led development to accelerate structural change and establish industry as an economic leader. It examines the experiences of East Asian countries and conditions needed to promote industrialization.
This report summarizes the findings and policy recommendations from discussions on building an inclusive, resilient and sustainable economy for Pakistan. It suggests short-term measures to maintain macroeconomic stability through prudent fiscal and monetary policies. Long-term recommendations include promoting inclusive growth through improving agricultural productivity, supporting manufacturing competitiveness, and fiscal and trade reforms. Specific policies are proposed to strengthen key sectors like energy, labour markets, women's empowerment, and tourism. The overall goal is an economy that achieves sustainable development and improves living standards.
The document discusses the impact of globalization on the Indian economy and service sector. It notes that globalization has had a highly positive impact on India's economic growth, reducing poverty and increasing employment, exports, and competitiveness. The service sector is a major contributor to India's social and economic growth, and has grown significantly due to factors like urbanization and privatization. India's GDP growth rate has increased from 5.6% in 1980-1990 to over 8% in some years since the 1990s. India has also improved its global economic position and is now a top exporter of services. However, the document cautions that policies like liberalization and privatization must be properly sequenced and paced to provide safety nets and avoid
1. Pakistan has experienced significant economic growth and development over the past decades, with per capita incomes increasing over six-fold and the country becoming self-sufficient in food production and a leading cotton and textiles exporter.
2. However, social development has lagged behind with adult literacy around 50% rather than 100%, contributing to per capita income being around $640 rather than $1200. Neglect of education, population growth, and periods of policy instability have held Pakistan back from its full economic potential.
3. In recent years, Pakistan has achieved macroeconomic stability through reforms like fiscal discipline, trade liberalization, privatization, and improved governance. However, challenges of poverty and unemployment remain that will require continued strong
This study aims to:
1. Forecast non-oil GDP in the United Arab Emirates using ARIMA models from 1970-2006.
2. Define the most important sectors in the UAE's non-oil economy.
3. Estimate non-oil GDP for the UAE through 2020 to help plan future economic strategies and understand expected performance over the next 15 years.
Statistical software will be used to analyze historical economic data and forecast future non-oil GDP values to quantify the UAE's economic growth and potential. The study seeks to address gaps in professional analysis of the UAE economy.
This document summarizes key features of the Indian economy, including its transition to more market-oriented reforms since 1991. It notes that historically India has struggled with low incomes, poverty, and unemployment. Since economic reforms began in 1991, India has experienced faster GDP growth and rising incomes, though poverty reduction has been slower and inequality remains high. The impacts of globalization and reforms have been mixed, with concerns around issues like jobless growth, regional disparities, and ensuring benefits reach the poor. Overall the economy still faces challenges in generating sufficient employment and raising living standards across the population.
Pakistan faces many challenges at the beginning of the second decade of the 21stcentury:
• Decades-long struggle with macroeconomic stabilisation arising from unsustainable fiscal policies
• Pressure of demography
• Legacy of economic distortions
• Battering from external events, including earthquakes, floods and a continuing
longstanding low intensity conflict
• A large and loss-making public sector that impedes market development
• Low and declining productivity
• Heightened expectations of the population for a better life from a democratic
government.
Our growth experience of the last four decades has been volatile annual growth and
declining trend in long run growth patterns. In addition, productivity growth (a
measure of efficiency) has been low in comparison to our comparators. For the last
four years per-capita incomes have not increased in real terms while double-digit
inflation has prevailed.

- As various countries are now getting global and are opening their market for foreign companies, various
investors are investing in those countries, which means the demand for currency is increasing, affecting the
currency exchange rate.
In this research paper, the author tries to establish the relation between macroeconomic variables like
Inflation and GDP on the currency exchange rate. The author has collected the secondary data of Inflation rate
and GDP and tries to see its relationship with the currency exchange rate system. The author has used a correlation
and regression model to analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables.
The Pakistani economy has experienced difficulties in recent years. It suffered from political disputes, population growth, and tensions with India that slowed growth. High inflation, especially above 9% in 2005, has also harmed the economy. More recently, widespread power outages have damaged industries, and the global financial crisis caused Pakistan's foreign reserves and balance of payments to decline sharply in 2008, resulting in an IMF bailout. The value of the Pakistani rupee against the dollar has also fallen over this period.

The document discusses the economy of Pakistan. It provides an overview of Pakistan's economy, including key statistics and sectors such as agriculture. It outlines several challenges facing Pakistan's economy, including low savings and investment rates, a trade deficit, and fiscal deficits. It also discusses proposed solutions such as improving human capital through education, using technology, harnessing a young labor force, and decentralizing governance. The overall message is that Pakistan has potential for economic growth but must address challenges through strategic planning and hard work.

Globalization has had a highly positive impact on the Indian economy. It has led to high economic growth, booming exports, reduced poverty, increased employment, decreased inflation, and improved quality of products. The service sector is a major driver of India's social and economic growth. It has grown due to urbanization, privatization, and increased demand for intermediate and consumer services. While globalization has benefited India, its policies must be customized to each country and have adequate safety nets and regulatory frameworks to balance economic development with social costs.
Taxation: The Instrument of Economic Growth in NigeriaAJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: The provision of basic infrastructures are very important to the economic development of a
nation. The extent to which the government is able to provide these amenities is determined by the number of
resources at the government's disposal. The inability of the government to provide these basic amenities have
led to the winding up and relocation of many multinational companies operating in Nigeria to other African
countries. As a result, this study investigated the effects of corporate income tax (CIT) and customs and excise
duty (CED) on economic growth. The study used a descriptive research design, and data from 1971 to 2020
were gathered from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin and Federal Inland Revenue Service
(FIRS) publicationThe study concluded that the provision of basic infrastructures will boost the economy and
will drive individual taxpayers towards a positive response to tax payments. This will increase the level of tax
compliance and result in additional revenue for the government.This study recommended that the government
should make developmental projects their top agenda item as the availability of infrastructural facilities is a
necessary condition for investment that will grow the economy.

Global Value Chain Development and Structural Transformation in NigeriaDr Lendy Spires
This document summarizes an Africa Economic Brief from the African Development Bank that examines global value chain development and structural transformation in Nigeria. It finds that Nigeria has significant potential to develop global value chains in key commodities and industries where it has comparative advantages, such as cocoa, cassava, oil and gas, and manufacturing. However, Nigeria currently has low levels of participation and integration in global value chains compared to other African and developing countries. The brief outlines government efforts underway through programs like the Staple Crop Processing Zones and Nigeria Industrial Revolution Plan that aim to boost value chain development and could help drive structural economic transformation. It concludes that developing global value chains should be a priority to diversify Nigeria's economy and promote more inclusive growth.
Economic development is key to reducing poverty according to DFID's new strategic framework. The framework outlines five pillars where DFID will increase its work: improving international rules, supporting private sector growth, catalyzing capital flows and trade, engaging businesses, and ensuring inclusive growth.

This document discusses the Two-Gap model of economic growth in Nigeria from 1970-2007 using vector autoregression analysis. It finds that foreign aid does not have a clear positive impact on economic growth in Nigeria, while foreign direct investment (FDI) does, but is volatile. The study also finds that filling trade gaps determined by aid requirements alone will not necessarily boost trade and growth. It reviews literature on the relationship between FDI and economic growth, finding mixed evidence. Determinants of FDI identified include market size, infrastructure, political stability, natural resources, and macroeconomic policies.

The document discusses Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in India and their role in stimulating economic growth. It notes that MSMEs are considered key to promoting equitable development and have fueled India's economic growth by generating employment and contributing to industrialization. However, MSMEs still face significant challenges accessing funds due to their high risk profile. The document examines alternative avenues of fundraising that could help minimize the demand-supply gap for MSME financing in India.
The document discusses the importance of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in stimulating economic growth in India. MSMEs make up a large portion of India's economy, contributing approximately 45% of manufacturing output and 40% of exports while employing over 80 million people. However, MSMEs face significant challenges accessing funds due to their high risk profile, highlighting the need to explore alternative financing avenues to minimize the demand-supply gap in MSME funding.
The document summarizes the key findings of a McKinsey research report on productivity in Thailand. The research found:
1) Productivity in Thailand is much lower than benchmark countries like the US, with the potential for large gains through reforms. Sectoral regulations were identified as the primary barrier to higher productivity.
2) Operational inefficiencies within companies and misallocation of capital during Thailand's economic boom also reduced productivity.
3) Regulatory reforms targeting specific industries have the potential to dramatically increase Thailand's productivity, which is essential for restoring sustainable economic growth and international competitiveness. A dedicated agency is needed to implement and sustain reforms.
Globalization has significantly impacted India's agricultural sector in several ways. It has changed the structure of the economy so that the services sector now contributes the largest portion of GDP compared to agriculture previously. Globalization has also increased India's overall economic growth rate and position in the global economy. However, it has also led to issues like marginalization of small farmers in India as larger farmers have benefited more from economic reforms. Continuing this trend could create future problems if not addressed properly. Overall, globalization presents both opportunities and challenges that India must navigate carefully to achieve continued development.

Key achievements include securing basic supplies, spending over EGP 11 billion on infrastructure projects, and a second stimulus package for housing, schools and transportation.
What Are The Impact Of Crude Oil Prices On Indian EconomyDiana Turner
Crude oil prices have a significant impact on the Indian economy. Lower prices are beneficial for import-dependent countries like India by improving trade balances and consumer spending. However, lower prices negatively impact oil exporting countries. The document examines how volatility in crude oil prices affects key Indian economic indicators like GDP, inflation, and CPI. India imports around 90% of its oil needs, so both increases and decreases in crude prices pose problems and can damage the economy. The purpose is to understand this relationship and the consequences of changes in crude oil prices.
The document provides a SWOT analysis of India's New Economic Policy introduced in 1991 in response to a balance of payments crisis. The three main strengths are: 1) High economic growth increasing GDP and reducing poverty; 2) Increased foreign investment and integration in the global economy; 3) Dismantling of licensing and opening private industry. The key weaknesses are reduced government spending and increased inequality. Main opportunities are foreign investment, technology transfer, and improving competitiveness. Primary threats include increased economic fluctuations, challenges for agriculture and rural populations, and uneven distribution of benefits.

This document provides an IMF Article IV-style report on the economy of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 2013. It summarizes key economic issues including strong stock market performance driven by increased capital inflows, the monetary policy of maintaining a fixed exchange rate with the US dollar, reliance on oil exports for income which could be impacted by declining global demand, and efforts to diversify the economy through growth in non-oil sectors such as tourism and construction projects. While the UAE economy grew rapidly in the 2000s, it was impacted by the global financial crisis and Dubai's real estate market decline. However, the economy has stabilized since through debt restructuring and remains insulated from political instability in the region.
Challenges And Opportunities Of Globalisationloveleenchawla
Globalization: challenges and opportunities
Abstract:
Globalization is a multifaceted phenomenon. The paper identify some of the
Challenges it poses, as well as some of the opportunities it offers. Attention is focused on three major aspects of globalization namely economic, cultural, and political.
During 1990 to 2003, the volume of world trade has increased and the higher and middle-income countries managed to increase their share in world trade mainly due to the opening up of economies because of globalization. The middle-income countries had invited more Foreign Direct Investment during the period and the per capita GDP of the low-income countries was marginally increased. This resulted into the economic inequality, which widened between different income groups. In other words globalization has been confined to developed countries and developing countries were able to participate in the process.
However, globalization should not be accused for loosing share of the low-income countries. These countries suffered from internal problems like rapid rise in population, infrastructure bottlenecks, weak financial markets and so on.
Globalization and its benefits required a conducive environment to ensure higher returns and larger markets for foreign investors. To get a share of global capital, technology and output, developing countries had to upgrade their social and economic institutions through administrative, legislative and legal reforms.
Globalization merely provides opportunities to flourish. Globalization is not a tool to produce equality of outcome but it produces equality of opportunity for those with right mindset. Therefore developing countries require focusing on economic restructuring, developing market-supporting institutions and creating efficient regulatory mechanisms.
The low-income countries cannot survive at their own; they require international assistance and a support mechanism so as to facilitate their participation in the process of globalization. The challenge of the hour is to make globalization work towards global prosperity through disaggregate development. The critically necessity in this context are the collective and cooperative actions which should be realized by all countries of the world and particularly the developed ones.

This document contrasts the mindsets of winners and losers. It states that winners take responsibility and see opportunities, while losers make excuses, see problems, and avoid responsibility. Winners are proactive team players focused on solutions, whereas losers are reactive, apart from the team, and focused on difficulties and excuses rather than action and solutions.
This document contains the responses to three questions from a statistics assignment.
Q1 defines econometrics as the application of statistical techniques to test economic theories using econometric models to examine relationships between key economic factors.
Q2 states that the two assumptions of the classical linear regression model are that it examines the bivariate relationship between two variables in a linear form, where y= α +βx.
Q3 defines the demand function as the amount demanded given price and other factors, the supply function as the relationship between quantity supplied and price, and the consumption function as having a marginal propensity to consume (MPC) between 0 and 1, not equal to 0 or 1.
This document contains statistics assignment questions and answers. It discusses key concepts in statistics including inductive statistics, parameters vs statistics, random sampling, unbiased and biased estimators, and minimum variance unbiased estimators (MVUEs). Specifically, it defines inductive statistics as making inferences about populations from samples using probability theory. It explains that parameters describe entire populations while statistics describe samples, with the goal being to estimate parameters using statistics. It also defines random sampling as giving everyone in the population an equal chance of being selected, like a lottery. It provides examples of unbiased estimators, like the sample mean estimating the population mean, and biased estimators. Finally, it defines an MVUE as an unbiased estimator with the lowest possible variance, making

Businesses that rely on social communication, like schools and universities, as well as residential designers, are most likely to benefit from a presence in Second Life. As an individual, a good start-up business would be a real estate development company dealing in virtual land trading and architectural design, taking advantage of Second Life's necessity products and membership options.
The document discusses the rights of an unpaid seller under law. It notes that an unpaid seller has rights against both the goods sold as well as the buyer personally to recover unpaid amounts even if partial payment was made. An unpaid seller is broadly defined as one who has not received full payment for goods, including those who received negotiable instruments like bills of exchange that were later dishonored.
This document contains an introduction and acknowledgement section, followed by a table of contents and sections on the rights of an unpaid seller. It begins with defining an unpaid seller under the Sale of Goods Act as a seller who has not been paid or tendered the full price of goods sold.
The main sections summarize the unpaid seller's rights against the goods and against the buyer personally. The rights against goods include lien on goods in possession, right to stop goods in transit if buyer becomes insolvent, and right to resell perishable goods under certain conditions. The rights against the buyer allow the unpaid seller to enforce payment of the price personally.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the creation of images and videos, enabling the generation of highly realistic and imaginative visual content. Utilizing advanced techniques like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural style transfer, AI can transform simple sketches into detailed artwork or blend various styles into unique visual masterpieces. GANs, in particular, function by pitting two neural networks against each other, resulting in the production of remarkably lifelike images. AI's ability to analyze and learn from vast datasets allows it to create visuals that not only mimic human creativity but also push the boundaries of artistic expression, making it a powerful tool in digital media and entertainment industries.

INTRODUCTION
Thirty years ago the UAE was one of the least developed countries of the world.
Today, it has achieved an income level comparable to that of the industrialized nations.
The UAE did not pass through the hypothetical development ‘stages’ that most
developed countries seem to have experienced. Rather, its large oil revenues have
allowed her to leap these stages to the stage of high mass consumption. Massive oil
revenues have enabled the UAE to short-cut the usually difficult and lengthy process
of saving and capital accumulation necessary for economic development. Given an
abundance of natural resource endowments (oil and gas), the UAE has embraced
resource-based industries (RBI) as a development strategy, an industrial strategy that is
based on utilization of natural resources. There has been a deployment of windfall
income, largely directed at a ‘once-and-for-all’ boost to the social and economic
infrastructure, which enabled the UAE to achieve a significant degree of economic
development within the very brief timeframe of 1973 to 1982, a period of relatively
high oil prices. This chapter takes account of the fact that development economics
cannot be separated from the institutional, social, cultural, economic and political
context. It also takes into account the all-important human factor, both as a goal and a
source of economic development.
The Doing Business project provides objective measures of business regulations and
their enforcement across 190 economies and selected cities at the subnational and
regional level. The Doing Business project, launched in 2002, looks at domestic small
and medium-size companies and measures the regulations applying to them through
their life cycle. Doing Business captures several important dimensions of the
regulatory environment as it applies to local rms. It provides quantitative indicators on
regulation for starting a business, dealing with construction permits, getting electricity,
registering property, getting credit, protecting minority investors, paying taxes, trading
across borders, enforcing contracts and resolving insolvency. Doing Business also
measures features of labor market regulation. Although Doing Business does not
present rankings of economies on the labor market regulation indicators or include the
topic in the aggregate distance to frontier score or ranking on the ease of doing
business, it does present the data for these indicators.
OVERVIEW OF UAE ECONOMY
4. 4
UAE has the second-largest economy in the Arab world (after Saudi Arabia), with a
gross domestic product (GDP) of $377 billion (AED1.38 trillion) in 2012. A third of
the GDP is from oil revenues. The economy was expected to grow 4–4.5% in 2013,
compared to 2.3–3.5% over the previous five years. Since independence in 1971,
UAE's economy has grown by nearly 231 times to AED1.45 trillion in 2013. The non-
oil trade has grown to AED1.2 trillion, a growth of around 28 times from 1981 to
2012.
The UAE's economy is one of the most open worldwide, and its history of economic
history goes back to the times when ships sailed to India, along the Swahili coast, as
far south as Mozambique. Current UAE’s GDP is $386.4 Billion while the individual
share is almost 70 thousand dollars.
International Monetary Fund (IMF) expected UAE’s economic growth to increase to
4.5% in 2015, compared to 4.3% in 2014. The IMF ascribed UAE’s potentially strong
economic growth in World Economic Outlook Report to the increased contribution of
non-petroleum sectors, which registered a growth average of more than 6% in 2014
and 2015. Such contribution includes banking, tourism, commerce and real estate.
Increase of Emirati purchasing power and governmental expenditures in infrastructure
projects have considerably increased. Internationally, UAE is ranked among the top 20
for global service business, according to AT Kearney, the top 30 on the WEF “most-
networked countries” and in the top quarter as a least corrupt country per
the TI's corruption index
STRUCTURAL CHANGES IN THE UAE’S ECONOMY
5. 5
Economic development can be perceived as change in the structure of the economy.
Structural change refers to terms such as agricultural transformation, industrialization,
demographic transition, urbanization, transformation of domestic demand and
production, foreign trade, finance, and employment. In considering structural changes
in the UAE’s economy, this chapter intends to identify and describe the pattern of the
UAE’s economic growth and to determine its achieved level of development. In taking
this structural view of the economy, the chapter examines the distinct sectors of
economic activity and how these sectors respond to changes in demand to which the
development process subjects them. This partition of the economy into sectors permits
greater understanding of the problems of development. One clear pattern of the
changing economic structure in the course of economic development is that the share
of industry increases as gross output per capita rises. Following the Second World
War, rapid industrialization was viewed as a prerequisite for modernization and
structural change. The difference in the output and the contribution to GDP of the
industrial sector in developing countries as opposed to its place in developed countries
was seen as the main manifestation of economic backwardness and dependence.
While value added growth rate in the UAE oil sector was fluctuating during the period
1975–1998, the manufacturing sector value added growth rate was steadily increasing.
The manufacturing value added increased considerably from Dh 472 million in 1975 to
Dh 9443 million in 1985, and to Dh 18,855 million in 1998 (at constant prices). Its
contribution to GDP increased significantly from 0.9 per cent in 1975 to 3.8 per cent in
1980, and to 12.4 per cent in
1998. Nonetheless, it is obvious that the substantial increase in the manufacturing
value added has made a modest contribution to the UAE’s total output growth.
Agricultural production increased more than fourfold from 1975 to 1998 at an average
annual growth rate of 12.6 per cent. This consistent increase in the agricultural output
is attributed to the sustained efforts of the UAE’s Government to promote agricultural
development with generous agricultural incentives and subsidies. Changes in the
contribution to GDP of the non-oil sector (agriculture), however, increased at a
moderate rate. In 1998, the agricultural sector comprised about 3.6 per cent of GDP. A
conspicuous sectoral shift and contribution to GDP is evident in the service sector,
commerce (wholesale and retail trade), restaurants, hotels, transport, storage,
communications, finance, insurance, real estates and government services. The service
sector contribution to GDP increased from 22.3 per cent in 1975 to 39.7 per cent in
1998.
DATA AND METHODOLOGY
6. 6
This report gives the overview of the country, UAE. The data used in this report is
secondary data. Before preparing this report, I have made two drafts which depicts the
ease of doing business and merchandise of trade of UAE. After taking out the data of
GDP, Export, Import and various other variables, the graphs are analysed and the
following result can be made about the economy of the country, UAE.
UAE most populous nation, has sought to improve its macroeconomic stability and
develop its poor infrastructure, but severe economic policy distortions and a lack of
transparency in the economic system continue to impair progress. The government also
has struggled to end ongoing security threats in some parts of the country that have
exacerbated poverty and unemployment.
The government’s overreliance on oil, which accounts for over 90 percent of export
earnings, has exposed the economy to major risks amid declining oil prices. Despite
attempts to diversify UAE industries, overall progress has been only marginal. State-
imposed bans on imports have hurt consumers and businesses, and the judicial system
remains vulnerable to corruption.
Trade is moderately important to UAE economy; the value of exports and imports
taken together equals 31 percent of GDP. The average applied tariff rate is 11.3
percent. In general, foreign and domestic investors are treated equally, but the judicial
and regulatory systems impede foreign investment. The banks are highly exposed to
the energy sector, and nonperforming loans have been increasing rapidly
STARTING A BUSINESS
This topic measures the paid-in minimum capital requirement, number of procedures,
time and cost for a small- to medium-sized limited liability company to start up and
7. 7
formally operate in economy’s largest business city. To make the data comparable
across 190 economies, Doing Business uses a standardized business that is 100%
domestically owned, has start-up capital equivalent to 10 times income per capita,
engages in general industrial or commercial activities and employs between 10 and 50
people one month after the commencement of operations, all of whom are domestic
nationals. Starting a Business considers two types of local limited liability companies
that are identical in all aspects, except that one company is owned by 5 married women
and the other by 5 married men. The distance to frontier score for each indicator is the
average of the scores obtained for each of the component indicators
The distance to frontier (DTF) measure shows the distance of each economy to the
“frontier,” which represents the best performance observed on each of the indicators
across all economies in the Doing Business sample since 2005. An economy’s distance
to frontier is reacted on a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 represents the lowest
performance and 100 represents the frontier. The ease of doing business ranking ranges
from 1 to 190.

The Doing Business project provides objective measures of business regulations and
their enforcement across 190 economies and selected cities at the subnational and
regional level. The Doing Business project, launched in 2002, looks at domestic small
and medium-size companies and measures the regulations applying to them through
their life cycle. Doing Business captures several important dimensions of the
regulatory environment as it applies to local rms. It provides quantitative indicators on
regulation for starting a business, dealing with construction permits, getting electricity,
registering property, getting credit, protecting minority investors, paying taxes, trading
across borders, enforcing contracts and resolving insolvency. Doing Business also
measures features of labour market regulation. Although Doing Business does not
present rankings of economies on the labour market regulation indicators or include
the topic taken together distance to frontier score or ranking on the ease of doing
business, it does present the data for these indicators.

The UAE is a very wealthy country, mainly due to its modest population base and
huge oil resources. The large budget surpluses achieved have enabled the UAE to
accumulate a sizeable current account balance, held mainly by the governments of the
individual emirates and partly by other private establishments. Progress has been
favourable in social and economic development. The successful implementation of
human development policy in the UAE, hand in hand with industrialization,
urbanization and modernization, is one of the rare examples of a country which has
successfully used income from its huge natural resources for its long-term
development over a very short period (from the early 1970s to late 1990s). 258 United
Arab Emirates: a new perspective It is clear that the UAE has achieved impressive
improvements in many social and economic development indicators during the past
three decades. This chapter emphasizes the high levels of human development in UAE,
together with a relatively good record on human rights. These are goals, which must
still be borne in mind in attempts to sustain national development.
