The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MoCI) has signed two strategic cooperation agreements with QNB Group and Doha Bank, marking a significant step toward strengthening public–private sector integration and enhancing investor services through Qatar’s Single Window platform. The agreements were signed by Mubarak Abdulrahman Al Khulaifi, Director of the Single Window Department at MoCI, alongside Ismail Mandani Al Emadi, Executive Vice President of SME Banking at QNB Group, and Yousef Abdullah Al Meer, Deputy Chief of Strategy and Transformation at Doha Bank. Streamlining Company Formation in Qatar Under the agreement, QNB Group will enable eligible investors to open bank accounts directly through the Single Window platform, in line with applicable laws and regulatory procedures. This integration is set to significantly expedite the company formation process, reduce reliance on manual and paper-based transactions, and simplify overall business registration procedures in Qatar. The initiative reinforces QNB’s leadership role in supporting Qatar’s business ecosystem by delivering innovative banking solutions that enhance investor experience and facilitate faster market entry for new companies. Doha Bank Partnership Enhances Investor Journey The agreement with Doha Bank follows the same strategic objective: facilitating bank account opening for companies during their establishment phase via the Single Window platform. By digitising key steps, the partnership aims to accelerate approvals, improve operational efficiency, and support newly established businesses with seamless access to essential banking services. Yousef Abdullah Al Meer noted that the service reflects Doha Bank’s commitment to developing customer-centric solutions, particularly for startups and emerging companies, enabling them to integrate quickly into Qatar’s economic landscape and contribute to national growth.

Qatar’s Net Wealth Reaches Record $765bn, Underscoring a Shift in Wealth Growth Dynamics
Qatar’s net wealth reached a record high of $765 billion in 2024, reinforcing the country’s position as one of the region’s most resilient and sophisticated wealth markets. According to The Global Wealth Report 2025: Rethinking the Rules for Growth by Boston Consulting Group, Qatar’s total financial wealth rose by 4.1% year-on-year, increasing from $408bn in 2023 to $424bn in 2024. While financial assets continued to expand, real assets declined by 6% in 2024, falling to $394bn, reflecting broader global recalibrations in real estate and non-liquid holdings. However, the outlook remains positive, with real assets projected to rebound to $434bn by 2029. Meanwhile, liabilities edged up modestly by 1.8%, rising from $52bn to $53bn, indicating a stable leverage environment. Investable Wealth Set for Strong Expansion One of the most significant findings of the report is the growth trajectory of investable wealth, which is forecast to increase from $324bn in 2024 to $409bn by 2029, representing a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. Non-investable wealth is expected to grow at a more measured 3% CAGR, yet continues to demonstrate consistent momentum across the forecast period. This evolution highlights a maturing wealth landscape in Qatar, where liquidity, portfolio optimisation, and professional wealth management are playing an increasingly central role. From Market-Led to Capability-Led Growth While wealth continues to rise, the report emphasises that the drivers of growth are fundamentally changing. Historically, firms have relied heavily on favourable market performance, mergers and acquisitions, and aggressive advisor hiring to expand assets under management. However, these levers alone are no longer sufficient. The emerging constraint for many wealth management firms is not market opportunity—but their internal ability to capture and sustain growth. Firms that are gaining traction are those investing decisively in organisational capabilities rather than external expansion alone. Building Internal Engines for Organic Growth According to the report, organic growth is moving to the centre of the performance agenda. Leading firms are differentiating themselves by focusing on four high-impact internal levers: Technology is playing a pivotal role in enabling these shifts—allowing firms to scale advice models, personalise client journeys, and improve productivity across advisory teams. Leadership Insight: A More Sophisticated Wealth Market Commenting on the findings, Lukasz Rey, Managing Director and Partner at Boston Consulting Group, noted that Qatar’s wealth sector has reached a new level of maturity. He emphasised that success today is no longer defined by market exposure alone, but by the ability to generate sustainable internal growth. Firms that invest in advisor development, strengthen their market identity, and adopt next-generation client strategies are outperforming peers—not only in revenue growth, but also in achieving higher valuation multiples. Strategic Implications for Qatar’s Wealth Industry As Qatar continues to expand its financial ecosystem in line with national economic diversification goals, the findings signal a clear message for wealth managers, private banks, and financial institutions: future leadership will be defined by capability, not scale alone. With investable wealth accelerating and client expectations evolving, firms that successfully re-engineer their growth models will be best positioned to capitalise on Qatar’s next phase of wealth creation.

Leadership Perspectives Speaking at the official press conference, Haitham Shehab, General Manager of the organising company Stallion, highlighted the significance of hosting the first edition of ROBOTECH in Qatar. He noted that the exhibition creates a rare opportunity for businesses, professionals, and the wider community to engage directly with robotics and AI technologies, discuss real-world applications, and address both the positive and critical dimensions of artificial intelligence alongside global experts. Shehab also emphasised Qatar’s rapid progress under the Digital Agenda 2030, underscoring the importance of transforming toward digital platforms and knowledge-based industries as core drivers of sustainable economic growth. Global Participation and Knowledge Exchange ROBOTECH 26 will welcome international pavilions and country-led delegations, positioning Doha as a convening point for global technology leaders. The exhibition is open to companies from across the world specialising in AI, robotics, automation, and advanced digital systems—ensuring strong international representation alongside Qatari innovators. A dedicated education pavilion will feature universities, research centres, and academic institutions, reinforcing Qatar’s commitment to talent development, research, and future-ready skills in advanced technologies. Qatar’s Growing Digital Competitiveness Qatar’s hosting of ROBOTECH 26 builds on its rising global standing in digital performance. In 2025, Qatar ranked among the top 20 countries worldwide in the World Digital Competitiveness Ranking published by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD), reflecting strong progress in technology adoption, infrastructure, and innovation readiness. Globally, the artificial intelligence market continues to expand at unprecedented scale, with projections estimating growth towards USD 826 billion by 2030, while the global robotics market is expected to exceed USD 189 billion by 2027. ROBOTECH 26 arrives at a critical moment, positioning Qatar at the forefront of this transformation. Driving the Future from Doha Drawing parallels with Qatar’s successful hosting of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, organisers believe ROBOTECH 26 will further demonstrate the country’s capability to lead large-scale, high-impact international initiatives—this time within the technology and innovation landscape. By bringing together government entities, global technology leaders, investors, educators, and entrepreneurs, ROBOTECH 26 is set to play a defining role in establishing Doha as the GCC’s next hub for artificial intelligence, robotics, and advanced technology investment.
