United Arab Emirates ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
The UAE has an open economy with a high per capita income and a sizable
annual trade surplus. Successful efforts at economic diversification have reduced
the portion of GDP based on oil and gas output to 25%. Since the discovery of
oil in the UAE more than 30 years ago, the country has undergone a profound
transformation from an impoverished region of small desert principalities to a
modern state with a high standard of living. The government has increased
spending on job creation and infrastructure expansion and is opening up
utilities to greater private sector involvement. In April 2004, the UAE signed
a Trade and Investment Framework Agreement with Washington and in November 2004
agreed to undertake negotiations toward a Free Trade Agreement with the US;
however, those talks have not moved forward. The country's Free Trade Zones -
offering 100% foreign ownership and zero taxes - are helping to attract foreign
investors. The global financial crisis, tight international credit, and
deflated asset prices constricted the economy in 2009. UAE authorities tried to
blunt the crisis by increasing spending and boosting liquidity in the banking
sector. The crisis hit Dubai hardest, as it was heavily exposed to depressed
real estate prices. Dubai lacked sufficient cash to meet its debt obligations,
prompting global concern about its solvency. The UAE Central Bank and Abu
Dhabi-based banks bought the largest shares. In December 2009 Dubai received an
additional $10 billion loan from the emirate of Abu Dhabi. Dependence on oil, a
large expatriate workforce, and growing inflation pressures are significant
long-term challenges. The UAE's strategic plan for the next few years focuses
on diversification and creating more opportunities for nationals through
improved education and increased private sector employment.

DIAMOND INDUSTRY – INDIA
-
From time immemorial, India is well known in the world
as the birthplace for diamonds. It is difficult to trace the origin of
diamonds but history says that in the remote past, diamonds were mined only in
India. Diamond production in India can be traced back to almost 8th
Century B.C. India, in fact, remained undisputed leader till 18th
Century when Brazilian fields were discovered in 1725 followed by emergence of
S. Africa, Russia and Australia.
-
The achievement of the Indian diamond industry was
possible only due to combination of the manufacturing skills of the Indian
workforce and the untiring and unflagging efforts of the Indian diamantaires,
supported by progressive Government policies.
-
The area of study of family owned diamond businesses
derives its importance from the huge conglomerate of family run organizations
which operate in the diamond industry since many generations.
-
Some of the basic traits of family run business
enterprises include spirit of entrepreneurship, mutual trust lowers transaction
costs, small, nimble and quick to react, information as a source of advantage
and philanthropy.
-
Family owned diamond businesses need to improve on
many fronts including higher standard of corporate governance, long-term
performance – focused strategies, modern management and technology.
-
Utmost caution is to be exercised while dealing with
some medium and large diamond traders which are usually engaged in fictitious
import – export, inter-company transactions, financially assisted by banks. In
the process, several public sector banks lost several hundred million rupees.
They mostly diverted borrowed money for diamond business into real estate and
capital markets.
-
Excerpts from Times of India dated 30th
October 2010 is as under –
-
Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council in its
statistical data has shown the export of polished diamonds to have increase by
28 % in February 2013. Compared to $ 1.4 bn worth of polished diamond export in
February, 2012, India exported $ 1.84 billion worth of polished diamonds in
February 2013. A senior executive of GJEPC said, “Export of cut and polished
diamonds started falling month-wise after the imposition of 2 % of import duty
on the polished diamonds. But February, 2013 has given a new ray of hope to the
industry as the export of polished diamonds has actually increased by 28 %. It
means the industry is on the track of recovery and round tripping of
diamonds has stopped completely.” Demand has started coming from the US, the
UK, Japan and China. India’s polished diamond export is expected to cross $ 21
bn in 2013-14.
-
The banking sector has started exercising restraint
while following prudent risk management norms when lending money to gems and
jewellery sector. This follows the implementation of Basel III accord – a global
voluntary regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and
market liquidity.
