This strategy aims to double total FDI inflows between 2025 and 2031 to approximately 30 per cent
of the total investments in the country, which currently stands at 15 per cent. The goal is to increase
this to Dhs1.3 trillion and to triple the total FDI balance to reach Dhs2.2 trillion by 2031, accelerating
sustainable economic growth.

Separately, Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi said that the UAE’s approval of the National Investment
Strategy (NIS) 2031, under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai, marks a significant milestone to solidify
the nation’s position as a global investment hub.

He added that this strategy lays out a clear and ambitious roadmap to attract greater foreign direct
investment (FDI), drive economic diversification and ensure long-term sustainable growth.

In statements to the Emirates News Agency (WAM), Minister Alsuwaidi said, “By setting a target to
increase annual FDI inflows from Dhs112 billion to Dhs240 billion by 2031 and raising total FDI stock
to Dhs2.2 trillion, we are reinforcing the UAE’s commitment to creating a business-friendly
environment that encourages innovation, competitiveness, and global partnerships.
