During the meeting, they spoke about working more closely with other global financial institutions. They focused on important topics like sustainable finance (which means making sure finance helps protect the environment), digital change in the financial world, and making financial rules easier to understand and follow around the world.
They also discussed how countries can work together on financial policies, and how the UAE can become one of the top financial centers in the world. This supports the goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, which aims to grow Dubai’s economy and make it one of the best in the world.
Everyone at the meeting agreed that sharing knowledge is important—especially in areas like digital banking, environmental and social governance (ESG), and new financial technology (fintech). They also praised the work done by the Institute of International Finance in guiding financial systems around the world.
His Highness Sheikh Ahmed said that Dubai wants to be among the top four financial centers in the world. He also thanked the IIF for supporting Dubai and working with financial institutions in the region.
This meeting was an important step in building a stronger and smarter financial future that can handle changes and challenges in the global economy.
