The UAE-based investment banking advisory firm, Alpen Capital, announced the publication of its research report titled “GCC-India Corridor – Investment Opportunities”. This report provides an analysis of the investment flows between the GCC and India. It assesses the competitiveness of both regions and identifies key sectors for potential cooperation and investment. Additionally, the report examines the investment drivers and challenges within both regions. Furthermore, it profiles prominent Indian companies which have invested in the GCC and vice versa. The report also includes profiles of the sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) of the GCC.

“Indian engagement with the GCC countries is expanding at a rapid pace. The vision of the leadership on both sides, in India as well as in the GCC countries, provides a clear roadmap for deepening cooperation across sectors. These partnerships are two-way – creating win-win solutions for all stakeholders. On the other hand, the growth story of India is itself a big pull for investors. The returns from investing in India are some of the highest in the world. Further, investing in startups is creating an opportunity to be part of cutting-edge technological revolution that is creating next generation solutions for everyday problems. The Indian government has also undertaken major reforms, especially simplification of procedures, taxation, and implementation of single window clearances to facilitate ease of doing business,” said H.E. Sunjay Sudhir, Ambassador of India to the UAE.

The UAE and India are bound by strong economic ties and mutual opportunities exist between the two. The strategic initiatives and sector-specific opportunities make the UAE an attractive destination for Indian companies and vice versa, fostering a dynamic investment landscape. These opportunities and initiatives are expected to drive the bilateral countries relation to ever growing heights.”, said H.E. Fahad Al Gergawi, Chief Executive Officer, Dubai FDI
