Key economic indicators showcased on the platform encompass crucial metrics such as international trade balance, workers’ remittances, capital-account balance, and current-account balance. Additionally, the platform incorporates various social indicators, including population density, birth rates, and demographic distribution.

Ahmed Alsuwaiyan bestowed an honor upon the Ministry of Economy and Planning for attaining the National Enterprise Architecture Accreditation Certificate.
