    Global Research Sector – Real Estate Equities - UAE June 22, 2011 UAE Real Estate Sector Debt burden an overhang for economic growth in the medium term Pressure on property prices persistent through to end of 2012 Prefer Emaar and Sorouh over Aldar on liquidity and near term earnings Strong Buy – Emaar, Hold – Aldar, Buy – Sorouh Debt burden an overhang for economic growth in the medium term The debt burden on Dubai government and its GREs is a key overhang to economic growth, in our view. Total Dubai related debt is estimated at USD113 billion, equivalent to 37.3% of the UAE 2010 GDP. Despite the several successful rounds of debt restructuring by Dubai GREs, the large debt burden still proposes challenges given exposure of the banking sector to the troubled real estate GREs. However, markets appear to have priced in short term factors with the appetite for Dubai risk growing given the continuous improvements in Dubai CDS, currently at 332 bps, the lowest level since November 2009 driven by solid evidence that Dubai is well positioned as the region’s safe haven during the recent political tensions. Pressure on Dubai & Abu Dhabi property prices persistent through to 2012 Dubai residential selling prices have dropped almost 56% from their peak in 4Q08 until 1Q11 while those of Abu Dhabi lost 45% over the same period. We estimate a current vacancy rate of 30% in Dubai and 3% in Abu Dhabi. The figure for the latter is subject to significant increase in the coming 2.5 years given the influx of 65,000 units in the residential market.
