UAE Credit Rating

Solidifying the UAE’s International Standing

The UAE’s strong credit ratings from internationally recognised agencies reflect the creditworthiness of the federal government. The robust credit profile of the UAE stems from its high GDP per capita, strong international relations, innovative policies to enhance sustainable development and contributing factors that impact the UAE’s ability to withstand economic and financial challenges.

The FDMO plays a vital role in maintaining this solid reputation and preserving the UAE’s credibility in global financial markets by fulfilling its mandates and overseeing the federal government’s debt portfolio, ensuring that financing needs are met and are aligned with national priorities.
