Energy

With massive reserves of natural gas and an increasingly prominent position in world diplomacy, Qatar has come into the spotlight as a haven of stability in a year of deep economic uncertainty.

Construction

The government’s ambitious infrastructure development agenda is expected to sustain the strong momentum of Qatar’s construction sector, which enjoyed a bumper year in 2008 on the back of two consecutive years of strong growth.

ITC

The rapidly expanding non-hydrocarbons sector of the economy is fuelling growth in IT services and the government is intent on rolling out further IT infrastructure in a bid to establish Qatar as a leading knowledge-based economy in the 21st century market. Development and high spending in health and education systems as well as the financial services and communications sector have boosted growth in the IT industry as firms, both public and private, seek technical services and solutions.

Sectors

Qatar’s economy has emerged as one of the fastest growing in the world over the past few years, and while the difficult economic conditions of 2009 will present challenges, strong fundamentals and governmental commitment to development plans should keep up the economic momentum. The strength of the economy is derived in large part from its massive oil and gas reserves, but like most other Gulf states, economic diversification remains a top priority and the non-oil sector has been returning promising growth figures. Led by expansions in real estate, financial services and industry, among other sectors, non-hydrocarbons growth was up by 27.1% in 2007, compared with oil and gas sector growth of 23.7%.
