Strong Development Plan and Diversification of the Non-Oil Sector will Boost Economic Growth in the Oman Economy

The Oman economy is dominated by industrial sector which contributed approximately 54.9% to the total GDP in 2015. Mining and quarrying is the major contributing sector with 21.2% of the country’s GDP. Oman is expected to start a number of large infrastructure projects, including the building of roads, trade and industrial centers, hospitals, and airports. Oman has the 9th (five year) Development Plan, which provides direction for prioritizing capital expenditure, encouraging private investment and creating jobs for nationals in the private sector. The Oman government has diversified the economy from oil sector to non-oil sector. The non-oil sectors such as retail sector, healthcare sector, education, residential housing, and banking and financial sector is expected to driver economic growth during the forecast period.

SWOT analysis, forecast, scenario analysis, and risk analysis of Oman is also included in the report. The report also includes forecast of the economic growth through 2021.
The report highlights various drivers and challenges which have influence on development decisions of the economy. Oman is considered to be one of the most democratic and liberal countries in the Middle Eastern region. Oman is a politically stable country which follows constitutional monarchy. Oman has the 25th largest oil reserves and the 27th largest natural gas reserves in the world. Oman has good international and regional relations; it has also strong international assessments of the business environment. Oman has the best equipped armed forces in the Gulf region. Oman armed forces have close ties with foreign armies and forces are frequently trained and briefed by the British Army. Industrial sector is the main sector, which is driving the economic growth of Oman. The country, however, is facing social challenges that include increasing crime rate, which is raising the level of corruption. Oman is highly dependent on its oil revenue, which is one of the main challenges. If oil prices decline, it directly affects the country’s GDP. The other challenge for Oman is low R&D investment.
