 Nakilat embarks on further expansion into global markets –
Qatar Gas Transport Company (Nakilat), which has grown from
just an LNG (liquefied natural gas) shipping company to a
comprehensive maritime service provider, has embarked on a
multi-pronged strategy to further its expansion into global
markets. The strategy was emboldened by its foray into repair
and construction operations at the Erhama Bin Jaber Al Jalahma
Shipyard as well as agency, towage and vessel support services,
Nakilat Chairman and Minister of Energy and Industry HE Dr
Mohamed bin Saleh al-Sada said to the shareholders at the
AGM that approved QR955mn net profit and QR1 per share cash
dividend. “In today’s increasingly volatile world economy, it is
a necessity for businesses to adapt to survive,” al-Sada said,
adding Nakilat’s strategic business planning and investments
have helped the company to grow beyond being just an LNG
shipper to a comprehensive maritime service provider. Nakilat’s
vessels represent around 15% of the global LNG fleet capacity,
which translates into more than 9mn cubic meters of LNG
transportation. (Gulf-Times.com)
 Qatar PPI surges 4.5% in January on higher crude, natural gas
prices – Oil producers output cut deal from January 1, 2017 has
had its reflection on the Qatar’s producer price index (PPI),
which surged 4.5% MoM in January 2017 on higher prices for
crude and natural gas, according to official data. Qatar’s PPI for
the industrial sector, a measure of the average selling prices
received by the domestic producers for their output saw a
stupendous 23.8% YoY surge this January, primarily on
strengthened prices of crude and natural gas, refined petroleum
products, other chemical products, basic metals and rubber and
plastics products, according to the Ministry of Development
Planning and Statistics (MDPS) data. MDPS had released a new
PPI series in late 2015. With a base of 2013, it draws on an
updated sampling frame and new weights. The previous
sampling frame dates from 2006, when the Qatari economy was
much smaller than today and the range of products made
domestically much narrower. The PPI for mining, which carries
the maximum weight of 72.7%, saw its group index soar 3.5%
MoM in January 2017 on a 3.5% increase in the price of crude
petroleum and natural gas; even as stone, sand and clay prices
fell 0.5%. The PPI for mining witnessed the maximum
expansion of 30% YoY this January as there was a 30.1% jump
in the price of crude petroleum and natural gas but a 0.3% fall in
stone, sand and clay prices. (Gulf-Times.com)

Development Planning and Statistics (MDPS), as many as
24,660 new residency permits (RP) were issued in January 2017
through e-government (Hukoomi) showing an increase by
14.6% compared to the previous month (December 2016), when

10.1% reaching 95,649 from 86,869 in December 2016.
However, the number of exit permits processed during January

people leaving the country to spend New Year holidays

 Surprise fall in Japan January machinery orders raises doubts
about recovery – Japan's core machinery orders unexpectedly
fell in January from the previous month and dipped the most in
five months, adding to worries about whether recent signs of
economic recovery will be sustainable. Japanese policymakers
hope a recovery in capital spending will help drive growth in
the world's third-largest economy and pull it out of deflation
and stagnation. Core machinery orders fell 3.2% in January,
sharply undershooting the economists' median estimate of a
0.5% increase, Cabinet Office data showed. That followed a
rebound in December, when core orders rose 2.1%. While the
data series can fluctuate widely, it is regarded as a leading
indicator of capital spending in the coming six to nine months.
Compared with a year earlier, core orders, which exclude those
of ships and electrical equipment, fell 8.2% in January, the
biggest fall in eight months and larger than the analyst
estimate for a 3.3% decrease. (Reuters)

 China's economy is set for steady growth – The risk of a steep
slide in China's economy has reduced, the head of a government
research center said on Sunday, adding the country had moved
through an L-shaped pattern of slowing to now horizontal
growth. China's economy grew 6.7% last year, according to the
government, the slowest pace in 26 years. The country met its
growth target with support from record bank loans, a
speculative housing boom and billions in government
investment. But as Beijing moves to cool the housing market,
slow new credit and tighten its purse strings, China will have to
depend more on domestic consumption and private investment.
The government last week trimmed its economic growth target
to about 6.5% for this year. Li Wei, the Director of the
Development Research Center of the State Council, China's
cabinet, said many positive economic signs were emerging
domestically and internationally, and the risk of a large slide in
economic growth had clearly lowered. China's economic
development has gone from a "downward stroke in the L-shape
to the horizontal stroke", the official Xinhua news agency said,
citing Li's comments on the sidelines of China's annual session
of parliament. (Reuters)

 In GCC region chemical R&D spending reaches $729mn in 2015
– According to a Gulf Petrochemicals & Chemicals Association
(GPCA), GCC chemical R&D spending grew by a compound
annual growth rate of 20%, reaching $729mn in 2015. In
comparison, over the same period, global R&D in the chemicals
industry grew at a pace of 3% a year. R&D investment in the
region nearly tripled over the past five years, with R&D
intensity on par with China. According to the 2016 Global
Innovation Index, GCC countries scored within the upper
middle range globally. The UAE enjoys the top spot with an
overall innovation rank of 41, closely followed by Saudi Arabia,
at 49, and Qatar at 50. Dr Abdulwahab al-Sadoun, GPCA
Secretary-General said, “As GCC governments intensify their
efforts towards diversifying their economies into high value,
innovation rich sectors, this region have the potential to
increase its ranking further on a global and regional scale.”

 GOIC: Labor forces in GCC manufacturing factories reach 1.6mn
in 2015 – According to the Gulf Organization for Industrial
Consulting (GOIC), the labor force of manufacturing factories in
the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has increased from 774,000
in 2005 to 1.6mn workers in 2015. Growth in labor force, which
achieved a 7.8% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), was
parallel with the increase in the number of GCC manufacturing
factories. Labor plays a key role in industrial production. In fact,
they form an added value when coupled with the availability of
raw materials. Therefore, labor productivity is seen as a
criterion to measure industrial development and the efficient
use of the labor force. It also sheds light on the strengths and
weaknesses of an industrial activity. (Gulf-Times.com)
 Saudi Arabia scraps 6,000 'non-beneficial' projects – Saudi
Arabia has scrapped nearly 6,000 projects deemed non-

Commission said that the number of abandoned projects is not
large considering the size of the Kingdom's economy. The
government scrapped those projects after studies showed they
will not pay off in terms of development and economic growth.

 UAE wants closer trade ties with Asia, Africa – UAE wants to
expand trade ties with faster growing nations in Asia and
Africa. Rich Gulf Arab states are looking at ways to diversify
their economies, including who they trade with, after more
than two years of depressed oil prices forced a rethink of
government spending. The pace of economic growth in Asian
and sub-Saharan African economies has made them ideal
partners, Abdullah al-Saleh, undersecretary for foreign trade
and industry at the UAE ministry of the economy, told Reuters.
Asia's two largest economies China and India are expected to
grow by 6.5% and 7.2% in 2017 whilst sub-Saharan Africa is
forecast to expand by 2.8%, according to the International
Monetary Fund (IMF). There are huge opportunities in China

 UAE's Sharjah Islamic Bank says plans convertible Sukuk issue

 UAE's Mubadala completes deal to take 20% stake in

parent, Investcorp Bank. Investcorp said in July that Mubadala
would buy 9.99% of Investcorp immediately, and a further
10.01% following regulatory approvals, making it the largest
shareholder of Investcorp. (Reuters)
 Dubai’s hospitality market top performer in MENA – Dubai’s
hospitality market emerged as the top performer in the Middle
East and North Africa (MENA) region in January 2017,
representing the highest occupancy at 85.7% and highest
RevPAR of $246, over three times the average RevPAR recorded
in other cities of the region. Dubai’s beach hotels had the
highest RevPAR of $343, while city-based hotels in the Emirate
recorded the highest occupancy at 87.6%. Despite the influx of
new hotels, Dubai has managed to sustain extremely high
occupancy levels YoY. However, average room rates and
RevPAR dropped 8.1% and 7.3% percentage points (pp)
respectively in January, which could be a result of an
oversupply of rooms, encouraging the sector as a whole to
lower room rates to remain competitive. In the GCC, all markets
except Kuwait recorded lower revenue per average room
(RevPAR), reflecting the slowdown in performance witnessed
across the wider MENA region. Abu Dhabi’s hospitality market
maintained a strong occupancy of 77% in January 2017, but
witnessed a decrease in RevPAR and ADR of 11.8% and 10.6%
when compared to the period last year. (GulfBase.com)
