My name is Steven King. Um, I am HSBC's senior economic adviser. Well, HSBC's been in the region for many, many decades. Um, and it's part of HSBC's DNA. So, you need to have institutions in the region that help link people together.

The region's grown enormously over the last um few decades. places like Abu Dhabi. It's transformed itself from a a relatively small uh emirate to something which is incredibly dynamic. Well, the Falcon economy has obviously you taken flight. It's done incredibly well.

There's been lots of investments for the future, diversifying the interests of the economy over time, and it's something which is likely to increase further in the years to come.
