Dubai Chambers and Standard Chartered have signed an agreement to work together and help businesses in the UAE grow and expand into other countries.
Through this agreement, both groups will help international companies that want to start a business in Dubai. They will also help local businesses compete better and grow in Dubai and other markets.
Standard Chartered will provide services to UAE businesses that want to expand into other countries. The bank will use its global network to help Dubai-based companies open accounts and guide other companies that want to start a business in Dubai. In return, Dubai Chambers will help Standard Chartered’s clients around the world who want to set up in Dubai and grow their business from there.
This agreement is part of a program called the Global Partnerships Programme. This program helps Dubai attract more businesses and works with other service providers to make that happen. The Global Partnerships Programme also supports the ‘Dubai Global’ initiative, which aims to bring more foreign investments to Dubai and help Dubai businesses find new opportunities in other countries.
