The UAE is a land of countless business opportunities and challenges. So, how best to go about venturing in the UAE?
In this video, Karl Khoury, attorney and director of SRDB Law Firm Ltd – ADGM in UAE shares a couple of practical tips with those who want to seize those opportunities while mitigating risks.
Tip 1: Keep pace with the UAE and the region
The UAE is developing at a fast pace and the regulatory landscape is no exception, as the country strives to become a leading regional and international financial center. Keeping up with the new laws and regulations is of essence.
