According to the latest Henley Global Citizens report, 4,000 millionaires will migrate to the UAE this year because of the successful hosting of Expo 2020 Dubai and handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, which boosted the trust and confidence of high net worth individuals, foreign investors, and entrepreneurs, who injected billions of dirhams into the Dubai real estate sector.

Dubai is the new real estate capital of the globe, according to Imran Farooq, Cthe EO of Samana Developers, and the city is also growing as a new financial centre.

According to recent statistics, Dubai recruited a record 4000 new billionaires between February and May 2022, the biggest number of new rich citizens in the world in a five-month period.

“The crisis between Russia and Ukraine has sparked a fresh migratory surge. However, the United Arab Emirates, particularly Dubai, is not reliant on such wars since it has well-established commercial and trading infrastructures. “Even before the Russia-Ukraine war, the UAE maintained its status as the Middle East’s financial powerhouse,” he added. The UAE’s cheap tax system, the world’s quickest vaccination rates, and Dubai’s accomplishment in staging the World Expo during the toughest times of Covid-19, he added, are the primary attractions for international investors and families.

“At Samana Developers, we’re seeing an increase in new purchasers from China, Europe, Africa, and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) citizens, in addition to typical buyers from India, Pakistan, and the United Kingdom.” “Dubai’s increased attraction to overseas investors is reflected in the spike in new investors,” Farooq told Khaleej Times on Tuesday.
