Highlights
Dubai Statistics revised up its estimate of 2010 growth to 2.8% from 2.4%
previously, although the 'upgrade' was largely due to technical factors.
ENBD maintains Dubai's GDP growth forecast at 3% in 2011, with risks still to
the downside in the context of global developments.
Dubai has developed a competitive edge in trade & logistics, tourism and
business services; these sectors are set to be engines of growth for the
emirate going forward. However, Dubai is a small, open economy and
therefore particularly vulnerable to the global economy.
