Sovereign Wealth After the Storm: Navigating the Gulf's Black Swan open.substack.com/pub/sovereignw…

على مدى خمسة أيام .. ملاحم بطولية في السماء، لا يصلنا منها إلا الصوت .. والمواطن والمقيم والسائح في خير وأمن وسلام .. حفظ الله صقور الوطن 🇦🇪

الإمارات وطنٌ نلتقي على حبه، وتعلو رايته بإنجازات أبنائه… ولاءٌ دائم ومجدٌ لا ينحني. The UAE is a nation united in our love for it, its flag raised high by the achievements of its people… Enduring loyalty and glory that never bows.

I keep reading: “Dubai will panic.” You’re talking to the wrong crowd. Most of us here didn’t come from comfort. We came from countries where crisis was routine. Where uncertainty wasn’t theory, it was survival. We’ve seen currencies collapse. Governments freeze. Systems fall apart. And you think volatility scares us? We didn’t come here for shelter. We came here to build empires from scratch. Dubai isn’t fragile. It’s engineered. Built by people who already survived worse than headlines. When tension rises, we don’t scream. We calculate. We adapt. We move. That’s why this city wins. Not because it’s lucky. But because it’s led with clarity and built by the resilient. 🇦🇪

The industrial revolution took 100 years; diversification away from oil is not a structural dislocation that can happen overnight open.substack.com/pub/sovereignw…

"Policymakers must now grapple with a new dimension of sovereignty: control over capital itself. ..., the ability to deploy sovereign wealth with geo-economic intent will remain a defining feature of global power in the decades ahead." open.substack.com/pub/sovereignw…

Off back of the @QatarEconForum, comments from SWF leadership had a clear message. #SWF #bloomberg #PrivateEquity #VC - open.substack.com/pub/sovereignw…

Since @Brad_Setser and I both highlighted this topic, here is a refresh on codifying #SWFs open.substack.com/pub/sovereignw…

شهدت اليوم إطلاق "القائمة الإماراتية لشركات المستقبل" بالتعاون بين مكتب التطوير الحكومي والمستقبل، ووزارة الاقتصاد والتي تضم 50 رائد أعمال إماراتياً في 15 قطاعاً .. قيادة الإمارات تركز على توفير الإمكانات وتعزيز البيئة الحاضنة لرواد الأعمال والشركات الناشئة. فخورون برواد الأعمال الإماراتيين ونثق بقدراتهم على تحول الأفكار المبتكرة لمشاريع ناجحة في قطاعات اقتصادية مستقبلية، فهم الأقدر على نقل تجربتنا الوطنية وابتكاراتنا المحلية والريادة الإماراتية للعالم، وبما يحقق مستهدفات رؤية "نحن الإمارات 2031".

"Riyadh is already recalibrating its spending by scaling back some projects and extending others over a longer period of time." - I expect a hard budget constraint, or focused deployment of capital across all the GCC as oil revenues decrease. on.ft.com/3Z826lO via @FT

The Kalimat Foundation is committed to building a more equitable future for children through books. Through strategic initiatives supported by our generous donors, we are expanding access to knowledge and educational resources for those who need it most across the Arab world.

At Kalimat Foundation’s board meeting, we reaffirmed our commitment to creating a more inclusive future for child readers around the world. I am grateful to our partners who generously support our efforts. Together, we are making reading a shared experience for all.

I presented this challenge in 2015 during my research on Sovereign Wealth. SOEs present complex challenges in the International Political Economy - blurring lines in foreign policy and geo-economics. Honestly not surprised that it will not go ahead

Enjoyed an excellent discussion with HE Sheikh Fahim bin Sultan Al Qasimi, the Executive Chair of Sharjah’s Department of Government Relations. It was great to talk about opportunities for cooperation across a range of sectors with the Emirate of Sharjah. @fahimaq
