schestowitz-piA debt-fueled crisis is headed to Dubai, the trading hub of the United Arab Emirates.Oct 05 17:42
schestowitz-pi"[A] decade after the [E]mirates' crisis, its debt problems are not over," states a recent report from London-based financial firm Capital Economics.Oct 05 17:42
schestowitz-piIn fact, they may just be beginning.Oct 05 17:42
schestowitz-piA decade ago the city-state suffered a near-calamity during the global financial crisis. At the time Dubai needed a massive bailout, which was provided by the National Bank of Abu Dhabi (located in UAE's capital Abu Dhabi) along with the UAE's central bank, according to Reuters.Oct 05 17:42
schestowitz-piThis bailout was intended to calm investors who were uneasy about the fact that some of Dubai's government-related entities (GRE) had started defaulting on debts. Those investors had assumed that the GRE's were all guaranteed by Dubai. In other words, investors thought they'd get their money back from the government if the GREs failed.Oct 05 17:42
schestowitz-pi(Keen market observers may recall that during the financial crisis the U.S government also bailed out two of its government-sponsored enterprises that helped support the mortgage market: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.)Oct 05 17:42
