Britain's Investment Shift Towards the Middle East

Asia is attracting more and more attention as a prospective destination for investments: for British companies looking to strengthen their presence in global markets, it increased from 22% to 32%. According to the data presented in the report, more than a third of respondents in the United Kingdom (36%) believe that the Middle East will become a key investment hub in the next five years, compared to 18% of those who invested there earlier.

"The authors of the report from the 'Pagefield' company indicate that companies from Britain are increasingly turning to East Asia as a primary investment direction, accompanied by growing interest in the region in recent years," the report states.
