Gulf Daily News » Bahrain's economy to grow 2.4pc next year

Bahrain's economy is likely to grow from two per cent this year to 2.4pc next year on the back of government investment.

But across the GCC and in spite of stable oil prices, growth is likely to slip from this year's regional average of 6.9pc to 3.4pc, according to Merrill Lynch Wealth Management.
