United Arab Emirates: 2021 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; and Staff Report

International Monetary Fund

No 2022/050, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: A swift policy response helped mitigate the economic impact of the twin COVID-19 and oil price shocks and contain the initial spread of the virus. A gradual recovery driven by the non-oil sector is underway, following a deep recession in 2020. Fiscal and external balances have improved with recent oil price increases. The UAE is among the world leaders in delivering vaccinations, with nearly 85 percent of the population fully vaccinated as of October 2021.
