The region faced reduced oil pro-motion, stringent policy settings, regional conflicts, and nation-specific issues, coll.tivelycontributing toa slowdown across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Amidst these uncertainties, Middle Eastern countries displayed a steadfast commitment to proactivesustainable growth, anchored in strategic diversifications and ongoing reforms.<\/p>\n<p>Having eased to 2% by the close of 2023, the real GDP growth in the Middle East reflected the impact of diminished oil production among exporters and tighter policy conditions in emerging markets and middle-income economies. This adjustment followed the robust 5.6% recorded in the previous year. Despite this moderation, the Middle East is positioned to surpass global growth rates in 2024, with an anticipated acceleration of 3.3%. As global GDP growth slightly contracts from 3, in 2023 to 2.9% in 2024\u2014dipping notably below the historical average of 3.896\u2014the Middle East remains poised for remarkable economic growth.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7788&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/who-we-are\/&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;In-House Publications: Focus&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_basic_grid post_type=&#8221;post&#8221; max_items=&#8221;4&#8243; element_width=&#8221;3&#8243; gap=&#8221;15&#8243; item=&#8221;masonryGrid_BlurOut&#8221; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1721985310345-ceebddf1-1bf6-7&#8243; taxonomies=&#8221;1&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text] &#8211; PRINT &amp; DIGITALL PRESS [\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8513&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow_border&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/pdf\/FOCUS_on_MEA_2023.pdf&#8221;][vc_btn title=&#8221;DOWNLOAD PDF&#8221; style=&#8221;outline&#8221; shape=&#8221;square&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8513,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":"1"},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-8512","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-focus-magazine"},"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8512"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8512\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9022,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8512\/revisions\/9022"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctproductions.co\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
