    What role does market transparency play in attracting the 25.5% of investment from Europe?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Dubai�s commitment to transparency is a primary driver for the AED 133.1 billion (25.5%) invested by Europeans in 2024. The city now ranks 28th globally on the JLL Global Real Estate Transparency Index, moving firmly into the "Transparent" tier. This elevation is credited to digital innovations like the Dubai REST platform, which provides accessible real-time data, and strengthened anti-money laundering legislation that boosts institutional confidence. For UK investors specifically, Dubai acts as an "Invisible Wealth Vault". With the British Pound losing 26% of its value against the USD over 15 years, and the UAE Dirham pegged at 3.67, investing in Dubai real estate is equivalent to holding a Dollar-backed asset in a 0% tax environment. This regulatory maturity reduces risk and provides a stable sanctuary for global capital fleeing high taxes and currency volatility.
