Oil, security and IPOs loom large in Dubai Financial Market US roadshow | The National:

"In a couple of weeks, a top-level delegation from Dubai Financial Market, accompanied by the cream of the emirate’s listed companies, will touch down at John F Kennedy International Airport in New York to begin two days of intensive meetings with American investors.

The “investment roadshow” has been a regular fixture since its launch in 2007 in London. It gives an opportunity for the Dubai market and Dubai corporates to get up close and personal with the biggest institutional investors in the world.

Formal presentations by the DFM authorities, led by Essa Kazim, the chairman, and the big hitters such as Emaar Properties, Emirates NBD and DP World (the latter is listed on Nasdaq Dubai, but shares a common trading platform with DFM companies) are followed by a whirlwind of one-to-one meetings that is virtually financial “speed dating”. It’s a gruelling schedule."
