Good crisis management helped UAE achieve FDI growth: H.H. Sheikh Mohammed

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai has commended the growth in foreign direct investment seen in the UAE in 2020.

Taking to his official Twitter account on Saturday, His Highness said that "good crisis management" was the key factor that helped the country defy global trends.

Despite the UN's estimates that global foreign direct investment flows decreased by 42% in 2020 over COVID-19, the UAE witnessed 44% growth in FDI flows in 2020, compared to 2019, to reach AED73 billion. Good Crisis management is a guaranteed investment.
