UAE banks to perform well in 2008
United Arab Emirates: Tuesday, May 13 - 2008 at 08:30

Similar to the other GCC countries, the UAE banking sector continues to benefit from a buoyant operating environment, principally driven by high oil prices resulting in increased government infrastructure spending and general growth in both retail and corporate lending, the report said.
