Zawya24-04-2025
Al Habtoor Group, a leading UAE-based business conglomerate, has announced the release of the final batch of apartments at its prime development - Al Habtoor Tower - following the successful sale of over 90% of the building's 1,740 residential units.
This milestone reflects the strong demand for what is set to become the largest residential building in the world, said a statement from the Emirati group.
Strategically located on Sheikh Zayed Road within its Al Habtoor City, the tower continues to draw high interest from both local and international buyers seeking world-class living in the heart of Dubai, it stated.
According to the group, more than 40% of the tower's apartments are scheduled for handover in Q4, with construction progressing rapidly and consistently meeting key milestones ahead of the lanned construction schedule.
The final release features a limited number of premium units with sweeping panoramic views of Burj Khalifa, Dubai Water Canal, the Arabian Gulf, and Sheikh Zayed Road.
These residences are complemented by exceptional amenities including multiple pool decks, the highest terraced gardens, state-of-the-art gyms, luxury spas, and the Al Habtoor Sports Hub. The tower also boasts 24 high-speed lifts, offering the fastest vertical transportation available in a residential building globally, it stated.
Part of Al Habtoor City, the development offers residents seamless access to three five-star hotels, La Perle - the region's only permanent aqua theatre - and a vibrant boulevard lined with world-class dining and lifestyle venues.
Founding Chairman Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor said: "The response to Al Habtoor Tower has exceeded all expectations. Selling 90% of the units in a development of this scale speaks volumes about the trust people place in the Al Habtoor name."
"We are not just delivering homes—we are delivering a lifestyle that defines excellence. This final release is a rare opportunity to become part of one of the most iconic residential destinations in the world," he stated.
"Among the remaining homes available, only a few units remain under negotiation within the exclusive collection of 41 Ultra Residences, a signature offering within the tower. Located on floors 76 and above, these exceptional simplex units feature three bedrooms, private pools, expansive terraces, and superior finishes - all designed to offer residents an unmatched combination of elegance, space, and privacy," he added.

UAE: SCA warns investors against unlicensed individual, company in Dubai

The Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) has issued a fresh warning to investors against dealing with an individual and a Dubai-based company found to be operating without approval. In a notice published on its website, the regulator said Thoufeek Raja Abdul Majeeth is not licensed or authorised to carry out activities under its supervision. 'The SCA assumes no responsibility for any transactions or dealings with him in this regard,' the statement noted. The SCA also cautioned the public against FX GLOBE Marketing Management, a Dubai-based firm, stressing that it is not authorised to conduct regulated financial activities or provide related services. The authority urged investors to verify the licensing status of any entity before transferring funds or entering into agreements, warning that transactions with unlicensed operators could leave them vulnerable to fraud. The move is in line with SCA's mandate under Federal Law No. 4 of 2000 to protect investors and safeguard the integrity of financial markets. This is the latest in a series of advisories issued by the regulator. On July 17, the SCA cautioned the public against engaging with Sigma-One Capital, Sigma Wealth World Financial, and Sigma One Cap Marketing Services, none of which are licensed to operate in the UAE. The warnings come on the heels of a series of Khaleej Times investigative reports that uncovered how such entities operating through shell firms, fake offices, and offshore registrations lured UAE residents into transferring thousands of dirhams through aggressive cold calls and misleading trading dashboards.

Tokio Marine Insurance UAE simplifies claims with Kodak Alaris' AI-driven automation

Tokio Marine Insurance UAE, a leading provider of comprehensive insurance solutions in the region, has significantly accelerated its claims registration process through a new partnership with Kodak Alaris. By deploying AI-driven document automation technology, the insurer has reduced claims processing time by 90%, streamlined operations, and improved overall customer satisfaction. 'Insurance is more than just a policy, it's a promise,' said Tsuyoshi Yamasaki, General Manager at Tokio Marine Insurance Dubai. 'When our customers reach out, they're often in distress. It's our job to be there at the time of need.' Until recently, the claims team at Tokio Marine Insurance UAE manually processed hundreds of submissions a day, particularly for car insurance. Each case required multiple documents - police reports, Emirates ID, driver's license, vehicle registration - and involved extracting dozens of critical data points, all by hand. With up to 600 claims arriving daily via email, the workload placed immense pressure on staff and exposed the process to inevitable delays and errors. That pressure reached new heights during the unprecedented floods of 2024, which drove claim volumes to record levels across the country. The experience reinforced the need for a future-proof solution that could scale under pressure and maintain the company's high service standards. To address the challenge, Tokio Marine Insurance UAE turned to Kodak Alaris - a trusted technology partner with deep experience in document intelligence. Together, the two teams designed and implemented an AI-enhanced automation solution, anchored by Kodak's Info Input platform and powered by Microsoft Document AI. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, Kodak Alaris engaged in in-depth discovery sessions and ran a focused proof of concept that validated results from the outset. Since deployment, the time required to process each claim has dropped by 90%, enabling faster communication with customers - often within hours rather than days. The automation platform now handles three times the daily claims volume, while exception handling has decreased by 60% due to improved accuracy and automated validation. With a legacy dating back over 144 years, Tokio Marine Insurance has long been committed to its guiding principle: 'QUALITY, ALWAYS.' This latest digital transformation initiative reinforces that promise by simplifying a historically complex aspect of the insurance journey - claims processing. Staff who once focused on manual data entry are now redeployed to handle complex cases requiring human judgement, enhancing both job satisfaction and customer outcomes. 'It's not about replacing people; it's about empowering them. Our staff are now spending more time resolving edge cases and less time correcting typos. That's where human judgment really shines,' Yamasaki explained. Beyond operational efficiency, the volume of data captured per submission has increased significantly, enriching insights available for better decision-making, audit trails, and pricing models. 'Being able to automate data extraction means we can now add several more fields into our insurance systems per claim,' shared Mohamad Bader, Senior Manager – Information Technology at Tokio Marine Insurance UAE. 'It's helping with compliance, forecasting, and tailoring our offerings better than ever before. The biggest change however is the elevation in customer satisfaction. Faster response times mean fewer follow-ups, and greater trust. People feel cared for, and that's what sets us apart.' In an era where digital transformation often comes with hype, Tokio Marine Insurance UAE's partnership with Kodak Alaris stands out for its tangible, meaningful results. It's a case study in how thoughtful use of automation and AI can not only solve business problems - but also make life easier for the people behind each policy. 'Technology is most valuable when it improves lives. With Kodak Alaris, we've built a bridge between operational excellence and human empathy. The company's solution enhances our human effort, makes our operations smarter, and most importantly, helps us take care of our customers better,' concluded Bader.

You get a better lifestyle and safety in UAE, says Moldovan expat

Dubai-based CEO Elvira Jain has been in the UAE for 12 years and like most expatriates, says time flies in the Gulf. After a high-flying career as a fashion model, Moldovan-born Jain now runs a communications agency, Ellyse Management. During her career she has boasted collaborations with prestigious brands such as Gucci, Dior and Armani, and now, she's turning her hand to entrepreneurship in the Gulf's fashion capital. If you had to use one word to describe money what would it be? Opportunity. If you had to write a letter to money, what would you say? Due to money we can have the possibility of travelling and having better education and health. It's not the same everywhere but in Dubai you need resources to survive. How would you describe your relationship to money? I respect money. You need to use money smartly. I don't waste money and I calculate well. I do have an economics background, so I try not to overspend. Sometimes it is tricky, because I do like to spend, but I think money comes to people who also respect it and use it in the right direction. Also having a business and having created it by myself, I calculate everything and make projections and budget. How do you think this relationship was formed? When I was in school, aged 7-8, my parents used to pay me for every highest mark I used to get at school and I used to keep the money in a book, so I was really motivated to get better marks and more money. I was also one of the best in class. What good or bad lessons about money management did you learn from your mother? My mom sometimes tends to overspend and sometimes not spend much on unnecessary things so I try to also evaluate if it's worth to spend or not but sometimes is difficult. Who do you speak to about money matters and is it something you consider 'taboo'? I don't consider it a taboo. I can speak to my parents, my husband, and my kids . It cannot be a taboo since it is part of our daily life. Who has taught you the most about financial management? I learned a lot from my parents and from my husband. What do you think has been the most profound experience you've had so far in relation to money, good or bad, and what has it taught you since? When I used to travel as a model in different countries, they gave you a weekly allowance and you had to manage it. This taught me to spend only on what I really needed to. How do you think living in the UAE has changed your relationship with and perception of money? I can say that to live well you need money. The equation of money and income (in the UAE) is different compared to European countries. You get a better salary but then you also have to spend more on rent and monthly expenses. But of course, you get a different, better lifestyle and most of all, the UAE is the safest country to live in. If you could give your child or your younger self one piece of advice about money now what would that be and why? Spend only on what you really need because money comes to those who respect it. What do you value spending money on? It depends on what I need at that moment. I do like to pamper myself so there are also some spendings that we can't avoid as ladies. Do you long-term plan your finances, and if so, how? I like investing in real estate. What is your long-term goal or dream which is pegged to your finances? I wish to have a lot of properties in different parts of the world How much do you save each month? Since I'm a business owner, the income might vary, so savings are different. But I try to have a savings account and a different current account. How much do you plan to have by the time you are 65? I can't give a number because depreciation of money is real, so what might seem a lot now might be much less in the future. I try to think 100 times before investing so it's tough to say.
