Is your business ready for the $2 Trillion MENA trade boom?

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is re-establishing itself as a critical hub for global commerce, with a total trade volume exceeding $2 trillion. Driven by ambitious non-oil diversification in the GCC (led by Saudi Arabia and the UAE), this region is witnessing a sustained, robust expansion in key non-hydrocarbon sectors.

But this growth is critically dependent on one factor: the efficiency of cross-border payments.
