The number of people working there will increase from 17 860 in 2015 to 50 000 in 2024. The funds managed by these financial institutions will jump from 10.4 billion USD in 2014 to 250 billion USD in 2024.

Nearly 30% of expected growth will be driven by banking and reinsurance activities. The financial sector's contribution to GDP generated by Dubai will be 18% in the next ten years, compared to 14% in 2014.
