AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

VAT on Mobility: Dubai motorists will pay 5% VAT on Salik road tolls and Parkin parking fees from Monday, lifting peak tolls from Dh6 to Dh6.30 and off-peak from Dh4 to Dh4.20, with Salik tag prices rising to Dh105 in-person and Dh126 online. UAE Growth Snapshot: The UAE economy hit Dh1.9tn real GDP in 2025 with 6.2% growth, while non-oil GDP grew 6.8%; trade (16.9%) and finance/insurance (13.2%) led non-oil contributions. Heat Risk Forecasting: Scientists say an AI model can predict UAE heatwaves with 96% accuracy, as heatwave frequency has accelerated since 2010. Currency Talks: UAE trade minister Thani Al Zeyoudi said the UAE is discussing a currency swap line with the US as part of an “elite group,” aimed at boosting trade and investment. Hormuz Shipping Alert: US and UK maritime authorities warned vessels to exercise extreme caution in the Strait of Hormuz due to ongoing military operations north of Oman’s Musandam. Business & Investment Angle: Abu Dhabi is pitching itself as a stronger global investment magnet by attracting companies through stability, incentives and diversification policies. Digital Finance Trend: China is pushing wider digital yuan use at home and abroad, including cross-border payments—an approach that contrasts with US policy.
