The EIU has issued a report regarding the UAE economy and confirmed the prospects of achieving a high rate of growth this year, 6% in real terms. The most interesting issue featured in the report is the EIU’s review of inflation for 2005 and its estimate for 2006. “There is little prospect of a change in the exchange-rate regime, and we expect the dirham to remain pegged to the dollar at the current value of AED3.67:USD1 over the forecast period."
