QATAR - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Qatar’s oil and natural gas resources are the country’s main economic engine and government revenue source, driving Qatar’s high economic growth and per capita income levels, robust state spending on public entitlements, and booming construction spending, particularly as Qatar prepares to host the World Cup in 2022. Although the government has maintained high capital spending levels for ongoing infrastructure projects, low oil and natural gas prices in recent years have led the Qatari Government to tighten some spending to help stem a $12 billion budget deficit in 2016 - 7.8% of GDP.
Qatar’s reliance on oil and natural gas is likely to persist for the foreseeable future. Proved natural gas reserves exceed 25 trillion cubic meters - 13% of the world total and, among countries, third largest in the world. Proved oil reserves exceed 25 billion barrels, allowing production to continue at current levels for about 56 years. Despite the dominance of oil and natural gas, Qatar has made significant gains in strengthening non-oil sectors, such as manufacturing, construction, and financial services, leading non-oil GDP to steadily rise in recent years to just over half the total.

Notes to the legal Form
Under the Qatari Commercial Companies Law a WLL may be formed by a
minimum of 2 and a maximum of 50 natural or legal persons, whose liability is
limited to their shares in the company’s capital. It can be established in
almost all sectors of the economy (excluding banking, insurance and financial
investment on behalf of others), has no minimum capital requirement, and is one
of the easiest ways for a foreign shareholder to establish a legal presence in
Qatar. However, there are foreign investment restrictions. Law No. (13) of
2000, Regulating Non-Qatari Capital Investment in Economic Activity (Foreign
Investment Law) requires a Qatari citizen to hold at least 51% of the share
capital of an WLL. Shareholders' profit shares do not have to be proportionate
to the equity shareholding. It cannot issue shares to the public.
OPERATIONS
Activities: Engaged in the import and distribution of valves, control instruments
and spare parts.
Import Countries: Europe and the Far East

COUNTRY
OUTLOOK
Recent Developments
Like its GCC neighbours, Qatar appears to be
entering a period of slower growth. GDP growth eased to 3.6 percent in 2015
(from 4.2 percent in 2014), with output in the hydrocarbon sector broadly flat.
Growth in the latter has fallen sharply since
2012 in line with stagnating production, in large measure due to a self-imposed
moratorium on additional output from the North Field. More recently, the oil
price slump has also taken a toll. Nominal GDP fell 20 percent in 2015, due to
deteriorating terms of trade, while non-hydrocarbon sector growth slowed to 7.6
percent (vs. 11 percent in 2014) on weaker
consumer confidence, fiscal adjustment and
tighter banking sector liquidity.
Large fiscal and current account surpluses
have vanished. Hydrocarbon revenues account for some 90 percent of fiscal
receipts and the bulk of export earnings. With low oil prices persisting, the
current account surplus has narrowed sharply, from over 30 percent of GDP in
2011-12 to 8 percent in 2015.
With fiscal revenues falling sharply amid
continued fiscal outlays related to the staging of the 2022 World Cup, the
general government fiscal balance has shifted into deficit and is projected to
reach 12.1 percent in 2016. Policy shifts to prioritize capital spending on
projects deemed critical to economic diversification and the World Cup were
reflected in the shelving of major “non-essential” projects (notably the US$6.4
billion Al Karaana petrochemicals complex in 2015). It is estimated that
government spending on new construction and
transport contracts fell by 92 percent (y/y) in Q1 2016.
The government has begun to rationalize
subsidies, allowing fuel prices to more closely track global prices. It is also
developing new revenue sources, including through planning for a value added
tax.
Large buffers are anchoring confidence amid rising
debt issuance. Qatar’s SWF is estimated to hold US$256 billion in assets.
Instead of drawing upon the SWF to fund the fiscal deficit, the government
has issued QR 4.6 billion and US$9 billion in
debt markets thus far in 2016. Indications are that no new money has been
allocated to the SWF this year, with new investments to be funded through asset
sales or dividend income.
By and large, though, fiscal policy tends to
be pro-cyclical in Qatar with the country needing fiscal frameworks to insulate
the budget from commodity price volatility. The country could benefit from
cross governmental planning, coordination,
and public investment management of non-hydrocarbon projects.
Monetary policy remains accommodative but
banking liquidity is tight. The central bank chose not to mirror the US Fed’s
policy rate hike in December 2015. But with further tightening by the Fed
likely,
it will eventually need to follow suit given
the currency peg. Banking sector solvency indicators and capital buffers remain
healthy; however both deposit and credit growth have slowed.
Living standard monitoring and analysis
should contribute to better design of social policies, including their
targeting, especially in light of the recent rise in utility tariffs and the
elimination of subsidies.
Outlook
Qatar is projected to continue growing at a
moderate pace. Qatar is in the second year of a US$200 billion infrastructure
upgrade ahead of hosting the World Cup, which should support activity,
particularly in construction, transport and services. GDP growth is projected
at 2.1 percent in 2016, and should gradually rise 3.7 percent in 2018. Natural
gas production has plateaued, and is expected
to decline. However, the 1.4 billion cubic feet per day Barzan gas project –
the last project approved before the North Field moratorium – is set for start
in 2016 with full output expected in 2017. This should offset some of the
anticipated production decline.
Fiscal and CA balances should gradually
improve. As gas production increases and oil prices recover, export earnings
should recover. The CA deficit will stay elevated during the forecast period,
reflecting FIFA related capital imports before gradually narrowing to 3.2
percent of GDP in 2018. The fiscal deficit will narrow, also helped by savings
in current expenditures and subsidy reforms, but is expected to remain large at
close to 9 percent in 2018 (general government basis).
Risks and
Challenges
Key downside risks include depressed global
oil and gas prices, which lead to a slower than expected improvement in fiscal
balances at a time when the GCC region as a whole is tapping international investors for funds to finance fiscal short
falls. Room to cut capital spending is limited given contractual obligations
regarding FIFA.
Other risks include volatility in global
financial markets, or regional instability that disrupts oil and gas production
and/or capital inflows. Over the medium term,
growing competition and the emergence of a
global spot market in gas prices could pose a challenge to Qatar’s dominance in
global LNG markets.
In light of the uncertain medium term outlook
for the gas sector later this decade and beyond, the development of the
non-hydrocarbon sector is of even greater importance. Qatar’s investment driven
growth strategy over the past decade has yet
to deliver benefits in terms of greater productivity growth, even as
bottlenecks have been visible in the form of overheating pressures, congestion
and pollution, and demographic imbalances. To diversify Qatar will have to
raise the productivity of its investment, in both human and physical capital,
and undertake structural reforms to improve the business environment.
