This meeting follows the agreement of a bilateral Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) last July, aimed at enhancing trade cooperation and investment opportunities.
The meeting touched on ways to build and expand partnerships between the business communities and the private sector on both sides. During the meeting, Al Zeyoudi highlighted the growing economic partnership between the UAE and the Philippines, noting that the total volume of non-oil trade reached approximately $940 million in 2024.

The UAE is the Philippines’ top export market among Arab and African countries as well as its I7th largest globally, demonstrating the strong foundation on which both nations can further expand collaboration.
