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

July 27, 2017--The ICAEW Economic Insight: Middle East, is a quarterly economic forecast for the region prepared directly for the finance profession. Regional growth uneven as oil related activity slows: Q2 summary

The recent extension to retain lower oil output globally means a slower recovery in oil related activity than anticipated, in addition to spillover effects to the non oil sector.

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.
