Closer India-UAE Engagement - What The Future Holds?

On this session of the India Global Forum, the panelists discussed the shared economic visions and geopolitical outlooks that have spurred the two sides to expand cooperation across multiple domains, notably in investment, technology, the knowledge economy, and defence and security. The UAE is regarded not only as a major trade partner but also a valuable source of foreign direct investment (FDI) in India's drive to develop a $5 trillion dollar economy. With CEPA (Comprehensive Economic Policy Agreement) covering over 90% of previous tariff areas, the potential for a trade and investment boom is now huge. Panelists included:
Saed Arar, Executive Director and Head of Traditional Infrastructure investments, Mubadala, UAE; Faizal Kotikollon, Founder and Chairman, KEF Holdings, UAE; Rola Abu Manneh, CEO, Standard Chartered, UAE; Dr Sanjeev Sanyal, Member of Economic Advisory Council to The Prime Minister, Government of India; Sanjay Nayar, Senior Advisor, KKR, India;
