Qatar Ranks Among Top 10 Global Investment Destinations

Qatar has secured the 9th spot among the world’s top countries for attracting foreign investments, according to US News & World Report's 2024 'Best Countries in the World' rankings. Additionally, Qatar moved up to 25th place globally, marking a one-spot rise from 2023.

Elliott Davis, an analyst at US News & World Report, highlighted that Qatar’s strong economic performance has contributed to its global standing. “Qatar performed well in the 2024 rankings, landing in the top 30 for six out of ten sub-categories, including an impressive 3rd place in the ‘Movers’ ranking, which assesses a country’s potential for future growth,” Davis told The Peninsula.

While Qatar excelled in several areas, it ranks 58th in the ‘Start a Business’ sub-category and placed 23rd for entrepreneurship. However, it made significant strides by jumping 37 spots in the ‘Open for Business’ category, signaling a positive outlook for its business environment.

Qatar also ranks 18th in the ‘Cultural Influence’ category and continues to be a key player in global trendsetting. In the tourism-related 'Adventure' sub-category, the country holds 36th place, indicating its growing appeal to international travelers.

Though Qatar dropped slightly in the ‘Movers’ sub-category, it climbed three spots in the 'Power' ranking, further solidifying its global influence.

With a strong rise in the ‘Open for Business’ category and continued performance across various metrics, Qatar is cementing its position as a key player on the global stage.
