"We have signed a Memorandum of Understanding establishing QNB as our official research partner in the production of Emerging Qatar 2006, part of OBG's internationally acclaimed Emerging Markets Series"
said Cristina Franco, OBG's Senior Country Director Qatar.
QNB and OBG have a successful history of maintaining a strong working relationship, as 2006 is the third consecutive year QNB and OBG have partnered for 'Emerging Qatar'.
"QNB is very pleased to partner with Oxford Business Group. As the country's largest, Qatari owned local bank, QNB will share its extensive research experience and contribute detailed analysis of Qatar's capital markets. 'Emerging Qatar 2006', along with the various publications such as 'Qatar Economic Review' produced by the Bank's Economics and Research Department, is a vital source of information on Qatar for analysts and the business community as a whole," said Vince Cook, General Manager, Corporate Banking and Capital Markets at QNB.
"As Qatar's booming economy and vast oil and gas sector continues to attract an increasing amount of foreign interest and investment, there is an increased demand for detailed and comprehensive economic analysis" added Franco.
'Emerging Qatar 2006' will be released next month and has already received overwhelming interest both from Qatar-based businesses and foreign investors.
"It will chronicle the country's developments in a range of sectors including banking, insurance, real estate, construction and transport and will also provide analysis and information on industry developments and investment opportunities" according to Franco.
To ensure the most comprehensive, accurate research for 'Emerging Qatar 2006', Oxford Business Group's accountancy partner is PricewaterhouseCoopers, while Simmons & Simmons has signed on as the group's legal research partner.
