Regarded as the premier guide for foreign direct investment into the emirate's vibrant and transforming economy, The Report is an invaluable guide to the many facets of Ras Al Khaimah, including its, macroeconomics, infrastructure, political landscape, banking and sectoral developments, and presents a remarkably in-depth profile of the emirate.

The OBG report on the emirate is being produced by a team of OBG analysts based in Ras Al Khaimah, conducting scores of interviews with leading political and economic figures.

It features a series of exclusive interviews with key officials and business leaders in what is considered the most extensive, independent, unbiased and accurate intelligence available on Ras Al Khaimah.

Bin Shabib & Associates will work with OBG's experienced editorial team, under the direction of the OBG Editorial Manager, guiding and advising on the many changes taking place in the emirate's laws, and assisting in the researching and writing of the legal section of The Report.

Bebhinn Kelly, OBG Country Director for the Northern Emirates, said: "Bin Shabib & Associates are perfectly placed to be able to provide the most eminent counsel and advice on Ras Al Khaimah's legal structures as the emirate moves through this most exciting and rewarding era.

"Their contribution will help to maintain the highest standards of accuracy and integrity which are the hallmark of all OBG publications."

Dr Rashid Bib Shabib, Founding Partner of Bin Shabib & Associates, said: "BSA specializes in a broad range of practice areas from advising major construction and real estate companies, banks and corporate concerns throughout the GCC and internationally. BSA advises multinational corporations on corporate structure and establishing branches in the UAE, negotiates complex specialised contracts, and represents a host of sea and air carriers before various GCC jurisdictions including Ras Al Khaimah where we have operated a branch for many years. This experience makes BSA imminently qualified to contribute to the production of OBG's publication."

"Our involvement will enhance what is already an extremely high level of professional competence in this trusted country business guide."

The legal section is part of the Business Guide which gives a vital analysis of the legal and accountancy regulations pertaining to foreign investments. OBG will also be working with accountants Morison Menon to complete this valuable section.

Available in print form and online, The Report: Ras Al Khaimah 2008 will be part of the range of OBG's publications, which are renowned as leading sources of information on developing and emerging economies around the world.
