Investor Confidence in UAE 2024

UAE jumps from 18th to 8th place in FDI Index for 2024

The Kearney Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Confidence Index is an annual survey where global business executives rank global markets that will attract the most foreign investments in the next 3 years. Since it’s inception in 1998 FDI Confidence Index has proven their predictions very accurate and reliable when compared to historical data.

The survey is conducted with senior executives of the world’s leading corporations. These companies all have an annual revenue upwards of $500 million and operate across all sectors in 30+ different countries. Single country index values are based exclusively on responses from companies headquartered in foreign markets.

United Arab Emirates (UAE) has an incredible rise from 18th place in 2023 to 8th place in 2024. This is a stunning jump of 10 places in a single year. Especially when we understand that this movement is achieved while UAE has already been among top 20 countries globally where competition is fierce.

Higher index scores represent more attractive markets for worldwide investors.
