Tatlonghari is optimistic that this trend, along with the UAE\u2019s assistance for international brands to grow in their region, will spur their sales to improve even more for the upcoming year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is very favorable to do business in the UAE because of the ease of doing business. It was easy for us to set up our first Ayala Land International office in the Middle East Region in Dubai, UAE. This provided assurance to our Filipino clients as they deal with us. Moreover, the policies of the government are rather uncomplicated, making compliance easier. The UAE is also travel-friendly so it is easier to send our members to assist Pinoys as they decide to invest in an Ayala Land property. More importantly the labor protection policies are very strong so Filipinos feel safe and secure working and doing business in the UAE,\u201d said Tatlonghari.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Start them young<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ALISI also noticed that the younger generation of OFWs in the UAE are now engaging themselves in purchasing property back home in the Philippines as early as they can. Indeed, a recent study from The Filipino Times titled: \u201cFilipinos\u2019 consumer and business confidence in UAE at an all-time high\u201dmarked that the average age of overseas Filipinos in the UAE is now in the \u2018millennial\u2019 bracket.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe noted that Filipino buyers from the UAE are getting younger. I would attribute this to their deeper sense of financial literacy. Perhaps they also learned from their parents who are also OFWs. I am also aware of the different Filipino groups advocating financial literacy which we have been supporting. And also because of the very favorable employment and business opportunities they have in the UAE,\u201d shared Tatlonghari.<\/p>\n<p>In line with this ALISI created several payment options and began more awareness campaigns to help these young and driven OFWs to make the decision to commit to invest in the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have launched online presence to spread awareness of the Ayala Land brands in the UAE. The Ayala Land brands ALP, ALVEO, AVIDA and AMAIA have also launched very flexible payment terms to encourage more Filipinos to start investing in their own Ayala Land property. Moreover, we simplified our processes on payment and documentation to make sure we accommodate more international sales from the UAE,\u201d said Tatlonghari.<\/p>\n<p>Meet Ayala Land at the 8th Philippine Property and Investment Exhibition (PPIE) on 5-6 November 2022 at Crowne Plaza Hotel in Sheikh Zayed Dubai.
