Working in Dubai (finance)

[thinkingxyz]

Hi,

I am in investment management working as an investment analyst, have been doing so for 3 years and for 3 years prior to that i was an investment strategist. I've just moved to the UK from Australia but the market is terrible so im considering a move to dubai.

I was just wondering, are there any negative repercussion of working in Dubai? As in, if I move back home will people think dubai is a second rate financial market? or that only second tier analysts go there?

Also, does anyone know how much money I can make there? Everyone has a different story its hard to know whats true...

Thanks

do you want to invest your own / your client's money or do you want to find a job there? i don't think that Dubai is a second rate financial market, there are good people working there as you can earn as much as in any other highly developed country
