The DMCC’s Future of Trade 2022 report is optimistic about the trajectory of trade will take this year while dealing with the multifaceted storing of businesses and governments. While the growth seen in 2021 was 9.8 percent, the rate is expected to be around 3 percent in 2022.
The Russia-Ukraine war inflicted shocks on the global supply chains, exacerbating the existing stress on the commodity markets during the post-pandemic recovery by causing oil prices and inflation to soar. Despite the setback, global trade is strong enough to overcome it and push forward in the years to come. The growth rate may be slower for 2022, but there is bound to be growth in the future.
Therefore, new businesses setting up in the DMCC region will stand to benefit in the global trade market, from its strategic position and community support.
