Progress towards GCC
Monetary Union
The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) released its report assessing the progress being made by GCC countries to achieve the convergence criteria for a GCC
Monetary Union (GMU). The report is the first in a series of reports to be released by the Centre focusing on issues affecting the region’s economy. The report, “An Assessment of the Progress towards GCC Monetary Union,”states that GCC countries remain on schedule to meet the imposed requirements by 2010, but identifies four key policy issues which need to be addressed for the successful launch of the GMU.
Firstly, there needs to be an institutional and governance framework to ensure smooth, transparent and effective decisions on the conduct of monetary policy and other central bank policies, including the mode of operation of the GCC Central Bank.

The GCC countries will need to invest in building their statistical capacity, in order to provide harmonized, comparable economic
and financial data, to support the GMU and the Gulf Common Market.
The GMU, if it is to be achieved and serve its purpose, needs to be supported by investments in financial infrastructure (including legal and regulatory), payment systems and the development and linkage of money markets and capital markets to ensure a uniform interest rate and the swift transfer of funds throughout the GCC.
However, once these issues are addressed, the report states that the GMU will add significant value to the region’s economies: “The GMU will strengthen the commitment of GCC countries to regional economic integration. The GMU should be the central policy anchor, extending the benefits of currency stability to financial markets, industries and citizens, by fostering more intense
