Malta and UAE are long established commercial partners in
industries such as tourism, telecoms, construction and are
currently looking at new ways of boosting business and trade flows.
Considering the fact that investing in Malta brings access to the
whole of the EU, the island certainly has a lot to offer as a
foreign direct investment destination for UAE investors.
Infrastructure development, IT capabilities, shipping, aviation,
and logistics are also offering opportunities for future
cooperation.
In this regard, in February 2021 a meeting between the Maltese
Minister of Foreign and European Affairs Hon. Evarist Bartolo and
the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of
the UAE Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan took place. The outcome
of the meeting was the signing of several cooperation agreements in
different sectors.
