The UAE and Bahrain have signed a new Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement aimed at deepening economic ties and safeguarding cross-border investments.
The agreement reinforces the long-standing relationship between the two Gulf nations and establishes a strong legal framework designed to protect investors from both sides. It guarantees fair treatment, provides clear mechanisms for dispute resolution, and seeks to foster mutual confidence in each country’s investment environment.
A key focus of the deal is its emphasis on digital economy collaboration. Both nations have agreed to strengthen cooperation in areas such as data protection, intellectual property rights, cybersecurity, and electronic transactions. This move aligns with their shared commitment to digital transformation and the development of competitive, future-ready economies.
