At home in Dubai,
founded in Oxford
Oxford Economics was founded in Oxford in 1981. Since then, we've grown to become one of the world's foremost independent global advisory firms. That growth has been, and still is, firmly rooted in the local markets which we call home.
Today, you will find us in 22 locations around the world, including Dubai, Cape Town and Singapore (to name just a few).
Why does our story matter? It matters because it means that we know your market. We understand the trends that matter most to you, and we speak your language.
