Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) has partnered with Julius Baer (Middle East) in a move aimed at helping international investors establish or expand their presence in the emirate. The agreement is designed to support overseas investors, business owners and family offices looking at Dubai as a base for growth.
According to the announcement, the partnership will create more formal pathways for affluent clients. That links the initiative to the Dubai Economic Agenda, D33, which is focused on strengthening the city’s appeal as a global business and investment hub.
The tie-up brings together a public-sector economic development body and a private banking group with access to high-net-worth clients. In practical terms, the effort is positioned to make it easier for eligible investors and entrepreneurs to navigate entry into Dubai or broaden existing operations there.
The agreement also reflects Dubai’s wider push to attract international capital, family wealth structures and globally mobile business owners. By aligning investor support with the goals of D33, DET and Julius Baer are aiming to channel more private wealth and business activity into the emirate.
