Transactions in the UAE reached $3.7 billion, claiming 5.8 percent share of the global market, and increasing 1,348.6 percent compared with the same period last year according the New York-based research firm Real Capital Analytics (RCA).

Globally, the landscape remains mixed with the US registering a drop of 39 per cent as values sank, while Europe, Middle East and Africa (Emea) saw a 71 per cent rise due to expansion in several developing markets including such as the UAE, Russia and Romania.
