Qatar
 Qatar enjoys high hotel occupancy rates – Despite the addition of
several hundred new hotel rooms over the last one year, Qatar’s
hotel market occupancy rate is forecast to close at 66% in 2016,
which is still higher compared to the occupancy rates in some GCC
cities that are also heavy reliant on the corporate segment.
According to a quarterly report titled: ‘Doha Q3 2016 Review’
released by Colliers International, a leading global real estate
services company, the market performance of serviced apartments
have remained relatively stable showing strong resilience during
tough times when compared to the hotel segment. The country has
witnessed an influx of more than 1,500 keys over the last one year,
primarily in the 5-star segment. However, no new supply was
introduced into the Doha market in Q32016. (Peninsula Qatar)
 Qatar’s $35bn foreign reserves to cover more than a year of imports
– BMI Research said Qatar’s foreign reserves, currently estimated
at $35bn, cover more than a year of imports and noted that the
country’s current account deficit in 2016 poses little risk to its
economic stability, with the deficit financed through its reserves
and debt issuance. The Fitch Group company said in a report that
Qatar’s current account will return to surplus in 2017, after
posting its first deficit since 1998, estimated at 3% of GDP in 2016.
The country will benefit from the recovery in hydrocarbon prices.
Nonetheless, the surpluses will be modest over the coming years,
given low energy prices by historical standards, strong demand for
imported goods in the lead-up to the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and
continuing remittances outflows. (Gulf-Times.com)
 Spain envoy sees signing of $1bn joint investment fund with Qatar
in 2017 – Ambassador Ignacio Escobar said plans are underway
for a high-level visit to Qatar by Spanish officials in 2017 where
discussions would include strengthening of bilateral relations and
the possible signing of a $1bn Spanish-Qatari joint investment
fund. The ambassador said, “We have a number of deals that are in
the pipeline. We are just waiting for an important bilateral visit to
take place. We will have agreements on cooperation in defense,
legal and judiciary, education, youth and sports,

 Oracle can help boost Qatari SMEs tech infrastructure – According
to Group Vice President, Cloud Applications, Europe Middle East
Africa and Latin America, Rajan Krishnan Qatar has one of the
highest Internet penetration rates in the world. The country has
209 million Internet users with penetration rate of 91% and 1.7mn
active social media users with a penetration rate of 70%. Qatar
also has 4.73mn mobile phone users with Internet penetration
rate of a whopping 209% with 66% of them being active social
media users. Krishnan added that as Qatar is heading to FIFA
World Cup 2022, there are many components where Oracle could
offer technical services to develop the sectors, including
transportation, logistics, events management and securities.
Krishnan said Oracle has a long-standing history in Qatar and in
the region, providing complete solutions that integrate all digital
technologies including cloud, mobile, social, big data and Internet
of Things with applications like middleware, database, analytics,
and engineered systems. (Qatar Tribune)
International
 UK firms show no Brexit vote hit in 3Q2016 as investment grows –
British companies brushed off the uncertainty over Brexit in the
three months after June's referendum and increased their
investment, helping to drive solid growth in the economy. The
Office for National Statistics said that business investment
expanded at a quarterly rate of 0.9% in 3Q2016 beating
expectations for a 0.6% rise in a Reuters poll of economists.
Britain's economy overall grew by 0.5% in the third quarter,
helped by a rebound in exports and robust household spending. A
separate survey showed retail sales growing at the fastest pace in
more than a year in November and suggested strong consumer
spending will continue to drive the economy in 4Q2016. (Reuters)
 CBI: UK retail sales grow at fastest rate in over a year in November –
A survey by the Confederation of British Industry showed that
British retail sales grew at their fastest rate in more than a year
earlier this month as colder weather continued to boost clothing
sales. The CBI distributive trades survey's retail sales balance rose
to +26 in November from October's reading of +21, its highest
since September 2015 and far stronger than economists'
expectations of a fall to +12 in a Reuters poll. British shoppers
have shown little sign of retrenching spending since June's vote to
leave the European Union, despite a sharp fall in sterling that looks
set to push up prices early 2017. The CBI's expected sales balance
for December also rose, while a broader quarterly measure of
retailers' business situation was its healthiest since February.
(Reuters)
 BBA: UK consumer credit grows at fastest pace in nearly 10 years –
British consumer credit expanded last month at the fastest pace in
nearly 10 years and mortgage approvals hit a five-month high. The
British Bankers' Association figures underlined the strength of
consumer demand since Britain voted to leave the European Union
in June, although rising inflation and a slowing economy are
expected to weigh on households in 2017. The BBA said that
consumer credit increased at an annual rate of more than 7% in
October, marking the strongest growth since November 2006.
British banks approved 40,851 mortgages for house purchases last
month, up from 38,690 in September and the biggest number since
May. (Reuters)
 Japan’s CPI falls again, extending longest streak since 2011 – Japan’s
consumer prices fell for an eighth straight month, the longest
streak of declines since 2009-2011, underlining how distant the
nation is from achieving its 2% inflation target. Consumer prices
excluding fresh food, the Bank of Japan’s primary gauge of
inflation, dropped 0.4% YoY in October. Overall consumer prices
rose 0.1% with a spike in fresh food prices compensating for
continued falls in energy costs. Consumer prices excluding food
and energy rose 0.2 %. The continued fall in prices underscores
the struggle to break a cycle that’s reinforced by weak gains in
wages, poor consumer sentiment and retailers who compete
fiercely through discounting. Even after Governor Haruhiko
Kuroda pledged to overshoot the inflation target, households and
companies have yet to fully shake off their deflationary mindset.
(Bloomberg)
 Brazil to keep slow pace of rate cuts amid political turmoil – A
Reuters poll showed that Brazil's central bank probably will
continue cutting interest rates at a glacial pace next week despite a
deepening recession as a new political scandal weakened the
currency and cast doubts on austerity measures. All but 10 of the
61 economists surveyed by Reuters expect the central bank in its
second consecutive meeting to trim the benchmark Selic rate by 25
basis points to 13.75%. The remainder forecast a 50-point cut.
Data probably will show Brazil's historic recession deepened
between July and September with a 0.8% seasonally adjusted
drop. Economists said Brazil's currency slump to near five-month
lows probably will discourage the central bank to cut interest rates
faster, which would help rekindle growth. (Reuters)

 Middle East tech companies pitch for $10mn as part of ‘cloud 10’

region travelled to London, UK, last week to pitch for $10mn in
front of a panel of investors as part of the Cloud 10 technology

Services (AWS). The companies pitched to a panel of high profile
international investors that included: Atkins Global, HSBC Private
Bank, Standard Chartered Private Bank, C5 Family Offices and C5
Cloud Partners. (GulfBase.com)
 Saudi Arabia mining expands as Kingdom chases growth beyond Oil
– Saudi Arabian Mining Co. plans to double gold production by
2020 and is increasing output of other commodities from
aluminum to ammonia as the world’s biggest crude oil exporter
seeks to diversify its economy. Chief Executive Officer Khaled Al
Mudaifer said that gold output will be 500,000 ounces by 2020
from about 200,000 ounces in 2016. Aluminum production
through a joint venture with Alcoa Corp. in the US has potential to
increase to 1mn metric tons from 760,000 tons in 2016, through
the use of recycled metal parts. Saudi Arabia wants to spur growth
in the mining industry as it plans to create more jobs away from oil
and increase revenue under the Saudi Vision 2030 program.
According to the Vision 2030 document, the government aims for
mining to contribute SR97bn to its economy by 2020 and create
90,000 jobs as a result. (Bloomberg)
 New regulations to facilitate growth in Saudi Arabia insurance
sector – According to professional services organization EY, the
insurance sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will find new
opportunities for growth through the National Transformation
Plan 2020 and Vision 2030 while simultaneously balancing
business and profitability challenges. At the recent EY Jeddah
Insurance Seminar held by the MENA insurance practice, EY
experts discussed the opportunities and challenges facing the KSA
insurance sector, along with the upcoming regulatory changes.

 Saudi Arabia banking sector liquidity improves after sovereign bond
issue – The successful $17.5bn sovereign bond issue by Saudi
Arabia in October has contributed to easier liquidity condition in
the domestic banking system. While the monetary survey data for
October is not yet available, it seems likely that at least a portion of
the bond proceeds have been transferred to the domestic banking
system, with both government and private sector deposits likely to

have increased over the last few weeks. The government has also
started paying contractors; with local press reporting around
SR40bn of outstanding payments had been made by November 20,
2016. Another SR100bn of delayed payments is expected to be
made by 2016. (Bloomberg)
 Saudi Arabia sinks Russia oil talks as OPEC deal hangs in the balance
– Saudi Arabia pulled out of planned talks with non-OPEC nations
including Russia as disagreements about how to share the burden
of supply cuts stood in the way of a deal to boost prices just days
before a make-or-break meeting in Vienna. OPEC officials were
scheduled to meet with non-members including Russia tomorrow
before a ministerial meeting in Vienna two days later. The meeting
was later cancelled entirely after the Saudi Arabia‘s decided not to
take part. According to the sources, instead, the group called
another internal meeting to try to resolve its own differences,
particularly the question of whether Iran and Iraq are willing to
cut production. Saudi Arabia wants an OPEC deal in place before
conversations with other producers such as Russia. (Gulf-

According to a quarterly report titled: ‘Doha Q3 2016 Review’ released by Colliers International, a leading global real estate services company, the market performance of serviced apartments have remained relatively stable showing strong resilience during tough times when compared to the hotel segment. The country has witnessed an influx of more than 1,500 keys over the last one year, primarily in the 5-star segment. However, no new supply was introduced into the Doha market in Q32016. (Peninsula Qatar)  Qatar’s $35bn foreign reserves to cover more than a year of imports – BMI Research said Qatar’s foreign reserves, currently estimated at $35bn, cover more than a year of imports and noted that the country’s current account deficit in 2016 poses little risk to its economic stability, with the deficit financed through its reserves and debt issuance. The Fitch Group company said in a report that Qatar’s current account will return to surplus in 2017, after posting its first deficit since 1998, estimated at 3% of GDP in 2016. The country will benefit from the recovery in hydrocarbon prices.

(Qatar Tribune) International  UK firms show no Brexit vote hit in 3Q2016 as investment grows – British companies brushed off the uncertainty over Brexit in the three months after June's referendum and increased their investment, helping to drive solid growth in the economy. The Office for National Statistics said that business investment expanded at a quarterly rate of 0.9% in 3Q2016 beating expectations for a 0.6% rise in a Reuters poll of economists. Britain's economy overall grew by 0.5% in the third quarter, helped by a rebound in exports and robust household spending. A separate survey showed retail sales growing at the fastest pace in more than a year in November and suggested strong consumer spending will continue to drive the economy in 4Q2016. (Reuters)  CBI: UK retail sales grow at fastest rate in over a year in November – A survey by the Confederation of British Industry showed that British retail sales grew at their fastest rate in more than a year earlier this month as colder weather continued to boost clothing sales. The CBI distributive trades survey's retail sales balance rose to +26 in November from October's reading of +21, its highest since September 2015 and far stronger than economists' expectations of a fall to +12 in a Reuters poll. British shoppers have shown little sign of retrenching spending since June's vote to leave the European Union, despite a sharp fall in sterling that looks set to push up prices early 2017. The CBI's expected sales balance for December also rose, while a broader quarterly measure of retailers' business situation was its healthiest since February. (Reuters)  BBA: UK consumer credit grows at fastest pace in nearly 10 years – British consumer credit expanded last month at the fastest pace in nearly 10 years and mortgage approvals hit a five-month high. The British Bankers' Association figures underlined the strength of consumer demand since Britain voted to leave the European Union in June, although rising inflation and a slowing economy are expected to weigh on households in 2017. The BBA said that consumer credit increased at an annual rate of more than 7% in October, marking the strongest growth since November 2006. British banks approved 40,851 mortgages for house purchases last month, up from 38,690 in September and the biggest number since May. (Reuters)  Japan’s CPI falls again, extending longest streak since 2011 – Japan’s consumer prices fell for an eighth straight month, the longest streak of declines since 2009-2011, underlining how distant the nation is from achieving its 2% inflation target. Consumer prices excluding fresh food, the Bank of Japan’s primary gauge of inflation, dropped 0.4% YoY in October. Overall consumer prices rose 0.1% with a spike in fresh food prices compensating for continued falls in energy costs. Consumer prices excluding food and energy rose 0.2 %. The continued fall in prices underscores the struggle to break a cycle that’s reinforced by weak gains in wages, poor consumer sentiment and retailers who compete fiercely through discounting. Even after Governor Haruhiko Kuroda pledged to overshoot the inflation target, households and companies have yet to fully shake off their deflationary mindset. (Bloomberg)  Brazil to keep slow pace of rate cuts amid political turmoil – A Reuters poll showed that Brazil's central bank probably will continue cutting interest rates at a glacial pace next week despite a deepening recession as a new political scandal weakened the currency and cast doubts on austerity measures. All but 10 of the 61 economists surveyed by Reuters expect the central bank in its second consecutive meeting to trim the benchmark Selic rate by 25 basis points to 13.75%. The remainder forecast a 50-point cut. Data probably will show Brazil's historic recession deepened between July and September with a 0.8% seasonally adjusted drop. Economists said Brazil's currency slump to near five-month lows probably will discourage the central bank to cut interest rates faster, which would help rekindle growth.
