Gulf Times – Qatar on top of foreign investors’ list

Qatar remains on the top of most foreign investors’ list of investable markets in the Middle East and Africa region, according to an analyst from a leading international investment management company.
Giving insights into the MSCI upgrade decision due next month, Bank of New York Mellon Vice President and Head of GCC Depositary Receipts Peter Gotke, said: “Although Doha’s stock market has not shown the same incredible growth enjoyed in the past few years, nonetheless, Qatar remains on the top of most foreign investors’ list of investable markets in the Mena region.”
