Economy & Politics
Private Sector Is Vital
Private sector is very important in the Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region for sustainable development, said the World Bank, as in countries that have grown strongly over the long term.
 

 
Telecoms & IT
Lagging Behind
The adoption and use of technology in the Gulf is not on par with global markets, but the Gulf has the advantage of not having a legacy and, therefore, a complete Greenfield network with the latest technologies can be deployed.
 

 
Moving Forward
Having weathered the financial storm better than most, Oman's banks are reassessing their strategies and looking for new sources of growth.
