The UAE’s economy is expected to maintain a strong outlook, with growth projected to reach 3.9 percent by the end of the year. Inflation is also forecasted to decrease to 3.2 percent by year-end, compared to 4.8 percent last year.
This decline is attributed to stabilizing prices and the diminishing impact of global imported inflation, while local factors such as rents and wages are expected to contribute to this trend.
