The index is based on a quarterly survey that collects data from a wide range of businesses in Dubai, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), multinational corporations (MNCs), and industry leaders. The survey assesses various aspects such as business performance, market confidence, operational challenges, and investment conditions.

After analyzing the survey results, the index provides a clear picture of the current business environment and future expectations. This helps decision-makers make informed choices that can support business growth. By covering different sectors, the index allows policymakers and business leaders to predict economic changes, minimize risks, and create effective strategies.

Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, emphasized the importance of the Business Climate Index. He said, “The index gives a clear view of Dubai’s economic situation, helping both policymakers and business leaders to navigate the changing global economy.”

He further added, “Our report shows how the index continues to guide strategic decisions that ensure Dubai remains a top destination for businesses and investors. The World Governments Summit is the perfect platform to share our findings and highlight how this tool supports long-term economic growth.”

The BCI is a valuable tool that provides businesses with key insights into economic conditions, allowing them to make better decisions about investments, hiring, and expansion. By understanding the overall business sentiment, companies can adjust their strategies to stay competitive in an ever-changing economic environment.

The report also explains how the BCI has played a role in shaping major policy decisions that have helped businesses overcome economic challenges and maintain investor confidence. With timely data and sector-specific analysis, the index helps government officials create policies that encourage business growth and long-term economic sustainability.

By releasing this report, Dubai Chambers reinforces its commitment to using data-driven policymaking to create a business-friendly environment.

Dubai Chambers’ participation as a Featured Partner at the World Governments Summit 2025 highlights its significant role in leading global discussions and working on solutions that promote sustainable economic growth.
