A report shows that the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is expected to remain a bright spot for global growth in 2025.

Despite a projected slowdown in global growth to 3.1 percent from 3.2 percent, the GCC is expected to outperform, driven by resilient non-oil sector growth and strategic investments that underpin its economic diversification, according to Standard Chartered’s Global Market Outlook for 2025.

The GCC’s attention on long-term transformation keeps on safeguarding the district from numerous worldwide financial difficulties. Interest in non-oil areas and a helpful climate for private-area development are supposed to support energy in 2025. The report likewise featured that lower loan fees are probably going to offer extra help, especially for acquiring delicate enterprises across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar. While more extensive MENA economies, including Egypt and Lebanon, face uplifted pressures from regional conflict, the GCC remains somewhat protected and strategically situated for consistent development.
