Abdullah bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of Economy and Chairman of ECI’s Board, emphasized

that the UAE's strong, diversified economy has successfully adapted to global shifts under the
guidance of its visionary leadership. Al Marri highlighted the importance of proactive economic

strategies that have boosted the UAE’s export competitiveness and contributed to a 75% increase in
the non-oil sector’s GDP share.

Al Marri praised ECI's Fitch rating, noting that it reinforces the UAE’s global reputation as a trade
hub. The rating also supports the ‘We the UAE 2031’ initiative, which targets a GDP of AED 3 trillion

and AED 800 billion in non-oil exports by 2031.

Raja Al Mazrouei, CEO of ECI, explained that the rating reflects the company’s robust financial

performance and strategic roadmap. This milestone will further enhance ECI’s ability to support UAE
exporters, expand global market reach, and boost national export competitiveness.

ECI’s continued success is attributed to its strong capital base, government support, and expertise in

managing foreign trade risks, helping UAE companies thrive in international markets.
