MENA’s trade prospects get a boost from Asia and Africa

Growth in MENA will dip in 2023, followed by a gentle recovery

DUBAI, UAE – Media OutReach – 18 October 2023 – Atradius, a global trade insurance leader, has today released its 2023 Regional Economic Outlook report, which presents growth forecasts for key markets in the Middle East and North Africa, including differentiated outlooks for oil-exporting and energy-importing countries, and detailed expectations around trade activity and the impact of the global energy transition.

“Oil price fluctuations meant the MENA region could not maintain the 5%+ growth rate in GDP seen in 2021 and 2022,” said Rupa Jagannathan, Managing Director, Middle East, Atradius. “However, while growth will be weak this year, a rebound is likely in 2024, fueled by investments and economic diversification, as well as stronger trade partnerships with Asian markets and other African economies.”

Here are the main takeaways from Niels de Hoog, Senior Economist, Atradius. The full report is available to download here.

Overall MENA macro-economic outlook

  • Following a strong performance in 2022, the MENA region will see growth weaken in 2023 in line with the overall global economic slowdown, as falling oil prices had an adverse effect on oil-exporting countries in the region.
  • Several supportive factors, including a likely stabilization in oil prices, should drive a rebound from 2024 – although oil price swings and climate change present significant risks.
  • Oil exporting countries – Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait and Qatar – will experience a drop from 7.6% GDP growth in 2022 to just 1.4% this year, but growth will pick up thanks to the development of diversified, non-oil sectors, and a recovery in oil prices.
  • Oil importing countries – Morocco, Jordan, Lebanon, Tunisia and Egypt – will grow more slowly than the oil exporters, as they struggle with high inflation and interest rates, low government spending and the influence of overall global economic weakness.

Liquidity will make a difference

  • Assuming oil prices remain elevated, growth among Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries in areas other than oil will experience only a mild slowdown, with governments using petrodollars to support household consumption and investment projects.
  • Saudi Arabia and UAE, in particular, have recorded impressive growth in real gross fixed investment, with a focus on balancing the funding of fossil fuels with meeting sustainability targets and diversifying their economies.
  • Meanwhile, energy importing countries face a more subdued outlook as inflationary pressures remain, worsened by currency depreciation and monetary policy missteps. Any rise in the oil price could scupper the recovery process.

Robust trade with Asia to benefit

  • All MENA countries, especially those in the GCC, will benefit from trade and strong relations with key Asian markets, particularly China and India.
  • Apart from the energy trade, GCC countries are performing well on non-fuel exports, mainly chemicals, manufactured goods and machinery, along with services, in line with strategic decisions to diversify away from hydrocarbon trade.
  • Oil-importing countries’ main export partner is a slower-growing Europe, meaning it will benefit to a relatively lesser extent from trade.

Energy transition will influence trade strategies

  • With an increased focus on sustainability, a number of MENA markets are turning to African countries for importing critical metals, which serve as inputs for renewable energy technologies. China remains a major supplier of solar panels and other technologies supporting the region’s energy transition.
  • The global energy transition will lead to a rise in demand for natural gas as a transition fuel from places such as China and Europe, while oil exports will see a gradual decline. To capitalise on the opportunity, gas producers like Qatar are investing in expanding capacity.

ROSEN, GLOBAL INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages Lumen Technologies, Inc. Investors with Losses to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – LUMN

NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Lumen Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: LUMN) between March 11, 2019 and July 14, 2023, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important November 14, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Lumen securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Lumen class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=17736 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 14, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Lumen owned and/or still owns thousands of miles of cables wrapped in lead, a known neurotoxin, within the United States of America; (2) the foregoing has harmed and posed the risk of further harming the environment, exposed Lumen employees, and the general public, thereby posing a significant public health risk and environmental pollution risk; (3) Lumen was on notice about the damage and risks presented by these lead-covered cables but did not disclose them as a potential threat to everyday people and communities, as well as failed to provide adequate lead training to employees; (4) all the foregoing subjected Lumen to a heightened risk of governmental and regulatory oversight and enforcement action, as well as legal and reputational harm; and (5) as a result, Lumen’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Lumen class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=17736 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

ROSEN, A LEADING INVESTOR RIGHTS LAW FIRM, Encourages Leslie’s, Inc. Investors with Losses to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – LESL

NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Leslie’s, Inc. (NASDAQ: LESL) between February 5, 2021 and July 13, 2023, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important November 7, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Leslie’s securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Leslie’s class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=18988 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 7, 2023.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Leslie’s growth was caused by customers over purchasing products to stockpile in case of a chemical shortage; (2) such sales inflated revenues and earnings and were not indicative of durable and sustainable demand or financial growth; (3) Leslie’s took advantage of chemical shortages by urging customers to stock up on the products because Leslie’s could not “guarantee availability” of chemicals in the future; and (4) any slowdown in sales was not a normalization of past seasonality, but was due to the prior excess stockpiling.

ROSEN, GLOBAL INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. Investors with Losses to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – TNDM

NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM) between August 3, 2022 and November 2, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important November 7, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Tandem securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Tandem class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=19024 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 7, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases.

In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, “Defendants misled investors by creating the false impression that as between three factors – competition, pandemic-related complications, and inflation – inflation alone accounted for the company’s reduced sales projections … Alternatively, Defendants deliberately ignored the impact of [other factors] … on sales and revenue. In either event, Defendants misled investors by providing the public with a materially flawed impression of the Company’s sales and revenue position for the remainder of 2022.”

Further, the complaint alleges that “Defendants misled investors by creating the false impression that the impact of competitors’ products, such as Omnipod 5, was minimal or less than expected. … Defendants’ forecasting processes failed to adequately account for the potential impact of the release of Omnipod 5 and the impact of that product on the Company’s revenue. Alternatively, [Defendants misled investors] regarding the impact of Omnipod 5 on revenue. Further, Defendants misled investors by creating the false impression that the factors which led to the decreased sales guidance in August … had not been adequately controlled for and were, in fact, improving.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 12, 2023.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Nikola securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 12, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding Nikola’s business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Nikola maintained deficient safety and structural controls related to its manufacturing of battery components; (2) the foregoing deficiencies rendered Nikola’s vehicles unsafe to operate and thus unusable, thereby raising the likelihood of a product recall; and (3) as a result, Nikola’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

The National Security Chancellery Holds a Conference on the role of clans and community leaders in confronting extremism that threatens societal peace

Baghdad The National Security Chancellery held a conference on the role of clans and community leaders in confronting extremism that threatens societal peace.

The Chancellery stated in a statement: “In implementation of the national strategy to combat extremism that leads to terrorism, and based on the importance of the role of tribal sheikhs and notables in consolidating moderate discourse and society’s immunity against extremist ideas alien to Iraqi society, the National Security Chancellery/National Committee for Combating Extremism held a conference of Tribes’ sheikhs of the governorates (Baghdad, Kirkuk, Diyala, Dhi Qar, Karbala, Wasit, Anbar), to coordinate positions and discuss the roles of community leaders to confront the dangers of violent intellectual extremism leading to terrorism that undermines societal stability and peace, in the presence of National Security Advisor Qasim Al-Araji.”

Representatives of the Ministry of Interior, MPs, governors, tribal sheikhs and notables from various governorates of Iraq participated in the conference.

The National Security Advisor, Qasim Al-Araji, opened the conference with a speech in which he pointed out that the tribes were and still are a social system that has a major role in the history of Iraq, and are the true support for governments, the political system, and the supreme religious authority, indicating: “The Iraqi tribes changed the face of Iraq during the days of the British occupation when they responded, endorsed and supported the religious authority’s fatwa.”

Al-Araji added: “The tribes help the Iraqi judiciary in resolving many social issues, and they are a reason for strengthening societal cohesion, and we must support them and not tear them apart or weaken them,” pointing out that there is a targeting of tribes because of their role in society, stressing the importance of having a special law for the tribes and their sheikhs.

On the other hand, the National Security Advisor stressed: “The shameful events taking place in the Gaza Strip, including the killing of children and women, collective punishment, and cutting off water and aid, are a clear violation of international humanitarian law,”. Stressing that statements of denunciation are not enough, but rather a real stance by the international community must be taken to stop the aggression against Gaza, noting that security and safety will not be achieved except with the presence of an independent Palestinian state./End

Allawi calls for a boycott of countries that support and protect Israel

Baghdad The leader of the National Coalition, Iyad Allawi, called for a boycott of countries that support and protect Israel.

Allawi said in a tweet on the website that expressions of condemnation and denunciation have become powerless in the face of genocidal wars and the heinous crimes committed by the Israeli aggression against our people in Palestine. What is surprising is the denial of crimes and holding others responsible for them.”

He added: “As we appreciate the positions of the Arab and Islamic countries and all the countries that supported Palestine, we call on the international community to take a real, serious stance to stop the Israeli crimes committed against our brotherly Palestinian people. It is not reasonable for these crimes to go unpunished or held accountable.” We also renew our call to boycott countries that support and protect Israel.”/End
