Qatar, UAE among top 10 richest countries



Qatar and the UAE were ranked among the top 10 wealthiest countries out of a list of 182 nations in terms of per capita gross domestic product (GDP).

US magazine Forbes in its latest ranking of the world’s richest countries, placed Qatar in the number one position and the UAE in the sixth.

Qatar, which relegated Luxembourg to the second spot, registered an estimated GDP per capita of more than $88,000 for 2010 after adjusting for purchasing power parity (PPP), while the UAE boasts a GDP per capita of $47,500.
Kuwait was placed 15th on the list.

Qatar, with a population of 1.7 million, has the third largest reserve of natural gas in the world. “Qatar has lured multinational financial firms to the country, as well as satellite campuses of US universities,” Forbessaid in its online report.

The report said the Qatar government is also investing heavily in infrastructure, including a deepwater seaport, an airport and a railway network, “all with the eye to make the country a better host for businesses and the 2022 World Cup”.
