The Arab Monetary Fund (AMF), in collaboration with the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States, the Arab Fund for Economic and Social Development, and the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC), has released the 44th edition of the Unified Arab Economic Report for 2024. This report is considered one of the most important economic references in the region, aimed at supporting policymakers by providing a comprehensive and accurate overview of Arab economies' performance, based on official data and reliable sources.

The report covers key economic developments in Arab countries during 2023, with a focus on the impact of global economic conditions on the region. It includes an integrated analysis of the performance of major economic sectors, such as oil and energy, public finance, foreign trade, and financial markets. In addition, it evaluates balance of payments, external public debt, and exchange rates, offering a clear view of the economic challenges and opportunities facing Arab countries.

In a forward-looking approach aligned with global trends, the report features a key chapter titled: "Digital Transformation in Arab Economies: Opportunities and Challenges." This chapter explores the importance of digital transformation as a pivotal factor for economic growth and sustainable development, while highlighting the challenges Arab countries face in accelerating digital transformation and adopting modern technologies.

The report also highlights Arab cooperation efforts in the areas of food security and development aid, with a special analysis of the Palestinian economy, which continues to face significant economic challenges due to current circumstances.
