Investigación de mercado de Oriente Medio

table of Contents
The Middle East presents new opportunities with growing populations, improving infrastructure, and numerous growing industries.
The region is a major oil-producing area, helping to fuel growth in the region. Though Global oil prices plummeted in 2015, many economies were spared a sharp economic downturn due to prudent reserves set aside for just such an eventuality.
A pesar de las fluctuaciones de los precios del petróleo, los países de Oriente Medio en su conjunto todavía muestran fuertes tasas de crecimiento. Las altas tasas de crecimiento demográfico, los programas de liberalización económica y los panoramas de inversión cada vez más favorables hacen de Oriente Medio un destino creciente para la inversión extranjera.

Las poblaciones más jóvenes pueden significar un mayor interés en las aplicaciones, los medios y la educación.
Social unrest often leads to sectarianism, which can disrupt nations and their economies. In the case of the Middle East, it is the cause of much oil price volatility. Continued political reforms and regional initiatives that unite the countries of the Middle East with shared trade investments will assist in easing societal tensions in the region. In addition, developing private sector revenue streams not dependent on oil will also be imperative in the future.

Oportunidades
Opportunities for investment and profitable business ventures are still plentiful in the Middle East. Major drivers of international investment reside in the Hospitality, Construction, and Real Estate industries. Egypt is thought to be stabilizing while Morocco has improved export and tourism revenues. Kuwait and Qatar have weathered the oil price drop with little or no visible downturn. With petroleum prices expected to rise in the next couple of years, there is little reason to believe the Middle East won’t continue to present excellent business opportunities.
