Dubai offers a rich tradition in precious metals trading, access to international markets, a <strong>tax-free environment<\/strong> and a flourishing <strong>Gold and jewelry industry<\/strong>. The city is home to one of the world's largest <strong>Gold markets<\/strong>the <strong>Dubai Gold Souk<\/strong>and is a center for trading in raw materials such as gold, silver and diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, as promising as the market is, the path to setting up a company in a sector as highly regulated and demanding as the <strong>Precious metals sector<\/strong> can be complex.
