Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt and Mosle has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the global publishing, research and consultancy firm Oxford Business Group (OBG) on research facilities to allow OBG access to the firm’s research resources and expertise. Through this partnership, Curtis will provide OBG with the knowledge necessary to complete the legal chapter within The Report: 2013. The Report: Oman 2013 is an in-depth analysis of the changes in Oman’s legal framework, which are pieces of a grander project to attract investors, support the younger generation by creating jobs, and diversify Oman’s economy. The publication, which will be available both online and in print, will be a guide to potential investors and include interviews with economic and business leaders such as Hamood Sangour bin Hashim Al Zadjali, the executive president of the Central Bank of Oman, and Yahya bin Said Al Jabri, chaiman of the Special Economic Zone Authority at Duqm (SEZAD).
