En route to moderating our GCC summit in Doha I was invited to come and talk about Compliance in the Middle East on Al Jazeera. I went on the 'Counting the Cost' show and talked about regulatory reform within the Gulf States. I actually find the Middle East a fascinating region from a regulatory stand point because these autocratic states are genuinely trying to become more diverse, or at least less dependant on a single commodity, be it gas or oil. The Challenges therefore become tied to the political will of each state and a real commitment to developing past single organism exchanges into more complex entities. Interestingly the Middle East is developing very fast and is learning from mistakes made in the West to develop a model that will work in that region. Time will tell but some of the early signs are promising.
