A review of growth and contribution of non-oil sectors to gross domestic
product in 2007 shows that the building and construction sector recorded
a higher rate of growth of 25.6% in 2007, compared to 2006 level. The
value-added of this sector rose from AED 46.43 billion in 2006 to AED
58.30 billion in 2007, while its contribution to gross domestic product
increased from 7.4% to 8.0%.
As a result of the State’s continued commitment to provide higher
standard public services to meet the increasing requirements of a growing
population, the output of the government services sector increased by
22.7% in 2007 , compared to 2006 level. The value-added of this sector
reached AED 49.27 billion against AED 40.15 billion and its
contribution to gross domestic product rose from 6.4% to 6.8%.
The output of the manufacturing industries sector rose from AED 75.56
billion in 2006 to AED 90.53 billion in 2007 (19.8%). Such increase was
due to a rise in prices of petroleum products and gas, in line with the
increase in oil prices during 2007.
The value added of the real estate and business services sector recorded an
increase of 16.9% in 2007 compared to 2006 levels, rising from AED 47.46
billion in 2006 to AED 55.50 billion in 2007. This increase was mainly
owed to a rise in number and prices of residential units. It is noteworthy
that the contribution of this sector to gross domestic product remained
unchanged at 2006 level (7.6%).
As a result of strengthening commercial activity in the UAE, the value
added of of wholesale, retail trade and maintenance sector increased by
13.1%, rising from AED 64.35 billion in 2006 to AED 72.78 billion in
2007 owing to the incraese in value and volume of imports, on the one
hand, and the increase in domestic industrial prodution on the other.

ANNUAL REPORT 2007
AR2007 Page 01-22 ( Final).qxp 7/5/2008 9:02 AM Page 17
The financial enterprises sector achieved a growth rate of 11.5% in 2007
compared to 2006 level. The value-added of this sector rose from AED
36.71 billion in 2006 to AED 40.92 billion in 2007. Such figures reflect
increased activity by banking and insurance companies, with banking
operations expanding to meet the requirements of rela estate and
construction activities on the one hand, and the need for insurance services
arising as a rersult of expanding eonomic activity on the other.
The transportation, storage and communication sector recorded a growth
rate of 8.3% in 2007, compared to 2006 levels, reaching AED 42.93 billion
although its contribution to gross domestic product dropped from 6.3% in
2006 to 5.9% in 2007. The increase in the value added of this sector may
be attributed to the pick-up in communication services activity in general
and the entry of DU Telecommunications Company to the market during
2007. It may also be attributed to the increase in air transportation activity
resulting from growing numbers of tourists, and the increase in sea
transportation resulting from increases in volumes of imports and exports.
With the expansion in tourism activity in the country, and with all
necessary facilities that would ensure an effective role for the hotels and
restaurants sector in the economy in place, the output of this sector grew
by 6.4% in 2007, compared to 2006 level, reaching AED 11.42 billion.
With gross domestic product, at current prices, increasing by 16.8%
against an increase by 6.1% in population, GDP per capita rose by 10.1%
in 2007, compared to 2006, reaching AED 162.60 thousand against AED
147.70 thousand in 2006.

As a result of the increase in the contribution of the oil sector, the
contribution of the goods production sectors to total output rose from
61.4% in 2006 to 62.4% in 2007. When excluding the output of the
extracting industries (mainly oil and natural gas), the contribution of the
goods production sectors would rise in 2007 to 38.6% against 37.5% in
2006. That means that the services sector accounted for nearly 61.4% of
total non-mining output during 2007, compared to 62.5% in 2006.
Analysis of estimates of gross domestic product by major expenditure
categories show that gross final consumption (government and private)
increased by 20.1% in 2007, compared to its 2006 level, reaching AED
396.06 billion and hence its ratio to total output rose from 53.3% in 2006
to 54.8% in 2007. Due to population increase and higher prices, private
final consumption increased by 17.7% in 2007, reaching AED 319.87
billion and forming 80.8% of final gross consumption spending.

Monetary and Credit Policy
4-1 Dirham Exchange Rate
Due to its fixed peg to the US dollar, the dirham exchange rate
dropped against most major currencies during 2007, as a result of
depreciation of the US dollar against most major currencies during
the same period.
The dirham exchange rate fell against the Euro (8.3%), the Pound
Sterling (7.8%) and the SDR (3.9%) and the Swiss franc (4.4%),
while it rose against the Japanese yen (1.2%). The rate of exchange
of the dirham remained unchanged against all GCC currencies at the
end of 2007, compared to its rate at the end of 2006.

5. The Balance of Payments
Owing to the increase in receipts of exports of the hydrocarbon and nonhydrocarbon sectors, the surplus in the trade balance (FOB) rose in 2007
by 11.8% compared to 2006, reaching AED 236.15 billion, despite
increase in total imports. The value of exports of the hydrocarbon sector
rose by 20.4% to reach AED 309.92 billion, and the value of exports of
the non- hydrocarbon sector increased by almost similar ratio to reach
AED 125.73 billion.
The increase in the value of exports of the hydrocarbon sector may be
attributed to the rise in oil prices, and hence prices of natural gas,
condensates and petroleum products, during 2007. The weighted average
of oil prices rose from US $ 63.53 a barrel in 2006 to US $ 71.70 a barrel
in 2007 (12.9%) and as a result, the value of oil exports ( including
condensates, which are not included in the country’s production quota set
by OPEC) rose from AED 213.37 billion in 2006 to AED 261.42 billion
in 2007 (22.5%) and the value of gas exports increased by 9.3% ,
compared to 2006, to reach AED 28.50 billion. Likewise, receipts of
petroleum products rose to AED 20.0 billion in 2007, against AED 18.0
billion in 2006 (11.1%).
As a result of an established government policy of diversifying sources of
income through creation of a favorable environment for the industrial
sector and owing to domestic financing institutions’ continued provision
of financing at reasonable terms, the value of commodity exports
continued to rise over the past few years, reaching AED 42.07 billion in
2007, against AED 29.23 billion in 2006 (43.9%). The value of exports of
the free zones also increased from AED 75.29 billion in 2006 to AED
83.66 billion in 2007. Moreover, the value of re-exports (including nonmonetary gold) also rose to AED 228.69 billion in 2007, against AED
172.71 billion in 2006 (32.4%).
ANNUAL REPORT 2007
ANNUAL REPORT 2007

AR2007 Page 23-48 ( Final).qxp 7/5/2008 9:15 AM Page 32
On the other hand, the value of total imports - CIF (including estimated
goods imports to all emirates of the country, free zone imports and
imports of non-monetary gold) registered a new record, reaching AED
486.58 billion in 2007, against AED 367.46 billion in 2006 (32.4%). This
may be attributed to population increase, the need to meet the
requirements of re-exports, a higher propensity to spend among
individuals, increases in numbers of tourists, in addition to the role of
commercial festivals held at various times of the year in invigorating
commercial activity. It is noteworthy that as a result of depreciation of
the US dollar, and hence the UAE dirham against most major currencies
and against currencies of UAE major trade partners, in addition to the
increase in prices of commodities in countries of origin, the increase in
value of imports may not reflect increase in their volume.
With the continued increase in estimated net imports (minus total
estimated total value of re-exports and exclusive of free zones imports
and imports of non-moonetary gold) by 41.1% in 2007, compared to 2006
levels, and an increase by 6.1% in population during the same period,
imports per capita rose from AED 27.98 thousand in 2006 to AED 37.22
thousand in 2007 (33.0%).
Data on the structure of imports in 2007 show that consumer goods,
capital goods and intermediate goods maintained the same shares
achieved in 2006, recording 54.2%, 35.5% and 10.3% of total imports
respectively.

The geographical distribution of total imports shows that the share of
Asian countries increased from 46.7% in 2006 to 46.9% in 2007.Within
this group, India continued to rank first. Menawhile, the share of
European countries dropped from 35.3% to 35.0%, with the European
Union countries recording a share of 28.5%. Within this group, Germany
ranked first (7.7%) followed by the United Kingdom (5.1%). The share of
the group of Arab countries increased from 5.5% in 2006 to 5.9% in 2007,
while the share of the group of American counries declined from 9.5% to
9.3%.
Within the current account items, the net outcome of investment income
achieved by various investment institutions in 2007 increased from AED
17.40 billion in 2006 to AED 21.50 billion in 2007. The debit balance of
services, which includes freight and insurance, tourism, travel and
government services continued to rise, reaching AED 87.61 billion in
2007, against AED 66.23 billion in 2006 (32.3%).
The net balance of the financial account reached AED 41.52 billion in
2007, against AED (-58.99) billion in 2006. This was mainly due to the
increase in private sector’s inflows, which rose from AED 87.59 billion
in 2006 to AED 217.32 billion in 2007 (148.1%), despite the increase in
the public sector’s outflows from AED 146.58 billion in 2006 to AED
175.80 billion in 2007.
The final position of the balance of payments in 2007 shows a surplus
of AED 183.24 billion, against a surplus of AED 23.89 billion in 2006.

285.7 billion at the end of 2007, registering an increase of 179.3%,

of a portion of its assets in premium foreign bonds, the Central Bank

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Board of Directors of
The Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Central Bank of the United
Arab Emirates (“the Bank”), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2007, and
the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then
ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. The
Bank’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2006 were audited by another firm
of auditors whose report date 18 March 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial statements.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility
includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation
and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether
due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making
accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Auditors’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards
require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’
judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate for the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Bank as of 31 December 2007, and its financial performance and its cash flows
for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
