ICAEW Economic Insight: Middle East-Regional growth uneven as oil related activity slows: Q2 summary

Progress on diversification, economic reform and streamlining the use of public funds has become even more crucial if investment and growth in the non oil sector is to take the mantle of job creation across the region.

The acceleration of global trade in the first half of 2017 has provided a boost to growth across many regions of the world economy.
