Besides offering a wide range of financial service activities, the centre also provides an integrated environment and world-class standard of living. It is well regarded in the international community as well. During 2022, a record number of hedge funds registered in the Centre, with more expected to open in 2023. It has been reported that over 60 hedge funds are in DIFC's pipeline. The global hedge fund sector is still dominated by older, more established centres like London and New York, but the Middle East is a young market where Dubai offers all the necessary circumstances for expansion, especially in the aftermath of the Covid epidemic. Due to the government's successful management of the outbreak and the far less limitations there than in other centers, Dubai had a significant inflow of managers throughout the pandemic. This gave managers the chance to see firsthand the various benefits the emirate provides hedge funds contemplating establishing an office there.
