2 mn b/d USD / b UAE: Downside risks to 218 growth forecast due to lower oil production estimates Highlights Oil prices revised higher We have revised our oil market forecasts and now anticipate that Brent crude futures will record an average of USD 69/b in 218. A potential move to as high as USD 8/b appears possible in the current climate. Prices should begin to taper off slightly by the end of the year even with a relatively wide market deficit as we think the risk of a broader slowdown in global growth will become more apparent by the end of 218, weighing on commodity prices. UAE s non-oil private sector growth increased slightly in April, with PMI reaching 55.1 (54.8 in March). However, strong output and new order growth has not translated into faster employment growth.

3 UAE s trading partners, 217 Highlights UAE s trading partners by region, % of total trade, 217 In terms of trading partners, Asia (developing & advanced) topped the list with 4.4% of the total trade volume amounting to USD 197.1bn in 217. EU followed with USD 5.8bn (1.4% of total trade), GCC with USD 36.9bn (7.6%) and North America with USD 25bn (5.1%). In 217, the countries with the highest y/y trade growth were Turkey, Iran and UK. Since this can be misleading as total trade volumes might be insignificant for some countries, we have included those with an already significant trade balance in USD billion in order to identify potential markets.

4 UAE credit growth by economic activity, 218 Highlights Credit in construction & real estate Appetite for business credit in the UAE as a whole increased moderately in 218, with a decrease in demand reported in Abu Dhabi, according to the latest credit sentiment survey by UAE Central Bank. Demand for personal loans decreased in. Consistent with previous quarters in terms of credit availability, more than 9% of survey results cited that the credit standard were unchanged across all the categories. In terms of outlook, demand for business loans is expected to increase further in Q2 218 while demand for personal loans in aggregate is expected to remain weak for the same quarter AED bn Construction and Real Estate, AED bn (LHS) Credit in transport & logistics Credit in wholesale & retail trade AED bn Financial Institutions (Excl.

6 UAE education strategy on track Highlights Students in Dubai, 217 Federal government expenditure is expected to increase in 218 to AED 51.4bn, out of which 17.1% or AED 1.4bn will be directed to the education sector. Under UAE vision 221, educational programs are to be focused on improving education infrastructure by equipping all schools, universities and colleges with smart systems. Dubai s private education market remains one of the most attractive and fastest growing markets globally with AED 6.8bn of tuition revenues (academic year 216/17). During the academic year 216/17, a total of 26 schools existed in Dubai providing education to 36, students out of which 273,6 (9%) were enrolled in private schools. Over the next few years, the number of private schools in Dubai and Abu Dhabi are projected to grow in anticipation of significantly higher enrollment figures. UAE Ministry of Education expects 4, students in Dubai by 22, and 283,8 in Abu Dhabi by 221. Overall, UAE was ranked 42nd among 188 countries in the 217 Human Development Index (HDI). Separately, in the Global Competitiveness Report, UAE was ranked as 12th and 16th based on the parameters of quality of higher education and training, and primary education, respectively. The quality of education is indicative of the existence of renowned schools and colleges in the country. The gradual expansion of the smart learning program, launched five years ago, has enabled the country to rank 13th in terms of providing internet access at its schools.

7 Overall business activity growth in Dubai s non-oil private sector increased at a slower rate in April Highlights The headline Dubai Economy Tracker Index (DET) fell to 53.9 in April from 55.3 in March and from a 218-high of 56. in January. Both output (57.1) and new work (58.) increased sharply last month but at a slower rate than in previous months. The employment index signaled a marginal increase in jobs last month, with the index at 5.3, up from 49.7 in March. The input cost index rose to 54.3, the highest reading since January, when VAT pushed the index up to Selling prices were largely unchanged however, with the output price index only just above the neutral level despite the much higher input price inflation.

11 Dubai s real estate sector Highlights Residential real estate prices accelerated their decline in 218, albeit on low volumes. The composite Phidar Advisory price index (8% freehold apartments and 2% freehold villas in selected communities) declined -7.% y/y in March. The average decline in 218 was -7.2% y/y compared with -5.4% y/y in Q Since the Q2 214 peak, prices of properties in the sampled freehold communities have declined -3%. However, apartments (-6.2% y/y in ) fared better than villas (-11.3% y/y) and lower priced units fared better than the more expensive properties. Gross residential rents declined -9.% y/y for apartments, putting some pressure on yields, while villa rents declined -1.1% y/y in 218. Given the more upbeat outlook for the GCC economies, oil prices, VAT exception for residential transactions as well as better global growth prospects, we expect the downside for residential real estate to be limited this year. Phidar Advisory expects residential real estate prices to recover modestly in 219 and rise further in The value of real estate investments reached USD 29.1bn in 217, up by 17.3% compare with the -32.6% decline in 216, according to Dubai Land Department (DLD). Dubai s property market attracted investors from all continents with UAE nationals topping the list at USD 6.9bn or 23.6% of the total. India ranked second (USD 4.2bn), followed by Saudi Arabia (USD 1.9bn), UK (USD 1.6bn), and Pakistan (USD 1.4bn). Other top investors in Dubai s real estate include citizens from China, Jordan, Egypt, and Canada.

14 % y/y The number of tourists coming to Dubai reached 4.65mn in 218 Highlights The travel and tourism sector index of Dubai s Economy Tracker (DET) declined to a four-month low of 55.3 in April 218, on the back of softer output and new work growth. Encouragingly, employment increased modestly on average after two months of decline in the sector. Firms absorbed higher input costs, as selling prices declined marginally for the second month in a row. Overall, businesses in the travel & tourism sector were slightly more optimistic about their prospects in the coming year than they were in February and March. The number of tourists coming to Dubai and staying in hotels including holiday rentals and on-board cruise ships for at least one night reached 4.65mn in 218, up by 1.8% compared with the same period last year. Western Europe was the lead tourist source for 218, accounting for 23.% of the total figure, followed by the GCC (17.%) and South Asia (17.%). In terms of country specific volumes, India remained Dubai s top source market with 617, tourists, an increase of 6.7% y/y. Saudi Arabia ranked second with 434, tourists (-1.4% y/y) followed by UK with 323, tourists (-7.7%), Russia with 259, tourists (15.6% y/y) and China with 258, tourists (12.2% y/y).
