The UAE’s Next Investment Chapter

Jersey Finance’s Director – GCC, An Kelles, has shared her insights into the UAE’s evolving position as a global financial hub in a new article published by Gulf News.

Titled ‘The UAE’s next investment chapter: From capital destination to global investment platform’, An explores how the UAE is moving beyond its traditional role as a destination for international capital to become an increasingly important base for managing wealth, making investment decisions and deploying capital across global markets.

The article highlights the continued growth and sophistication of the UAE’s financial ecosystem, particularly in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, where expanding wealth management, asset management and family office sectors are strengthening the country’s international investment capabilities.

As investors and families become increasingly internationally connected, An emphasises the growing importance of effective cross-border structures, robust governance and collaboration between international financial centres (IFCs).

The article also considers how the relationship between established international financial centres such as Jersey and the UAE can help support the changing needs of internationally mobile investors, businesses and families.
