The meeting in Paris was about opportunities in the fashion

Dow nturn w ill not stop march of Arab w omen
By Roula Khalaf
The women gathered in a splendid hotel in the heart of Paris on a
recent rainy day. They had arrived in style, some sporting fur
coats, others clutching Hermès bags. Yet this was not a social
event nor a fashion show. The guests were some of the Arab
world’s top business¬women and their trip to Paris was to learn
about business opportunities, even in today’s difficult economic
times. They were letting themselves be charmed by the French
government, which has suddenly discovered that the wealth of
Arab women and their rising profile in the business world
represents a good source of capital. Paris, the businesswomen
were told, was now a financial centre. Its important contribution to
the asset management business, they said, had turned it into the
‘Boston’ of Europe. ‘It is time to invest with us,’ declared Anne-
Marie Idrac, minister for foreign trade. ‘You are welcome, you are
welcome,’ she added. The Paris conference, organised by the
Arab International Women’s Forum, would have been inconceivable
a decade ago. True, many Arab women, particularly in the oil-rich
Gulf, have always controlled big fortunes, largely gained through
inheritance. But it is only more recently that they have sought to
make their own investment decisions. It is also in recent years
that the club of Arab businesswomen has expanded, creating a
new class who have worked their way through family businesses
or started their own companies. More confident and determined,
Arab businesswomen today are better organised – and more
widely heard. As Fayza Aboulnaga, Egypt’s minister of

Where have some Arab businesswomen begun work in business?
Dow nturn w ill not stop march of Arab w omen
By Roula Khalaf
The women gathered in a splendid hotel in the heart of Paris on a
recent rainy day. They had arrived in style, some sporting fur
coats, others clutching Hermès bags. Yet this was not a social
event nor a fashion show. The guests were some of the Arab
world’s top business¬women and their trip to Paris was to learn
about business opportunities, even in today’s difficult economic
times. They were letting themselves be charmed by the French
government, which has suddenly discovered that the wealth of
Arab women and their rising profile in the business world
represents a good source of capital. Paris, the businesswomen
were told, was now a financial centre. Its important contribution to
the asset management business, they said, had turned it into the
‘Boston’ of Europe. ‘It is time to invest with us,’ declared Anne-
Marie Idrac, minister for foreign trade. ‘You are welcome, you are
welcome,’ she added. The Paris conference, organised by the
Arab International Women’s Forum, would have been inconceivable
a decade ago. True, many Arab women, particularly in the oil-rich
Gulf, have always controlled big fortunes, largely gained through
inheritance. But it is only more recently that they have sought to
make their own investment decisions. It is also in recent years
that the club of Arab businesswomen has expanded, creating a
new class who have worked their way through family businesses
or started their own companies. More confident and determined,
Arab businesswomen today are better organised – and more
widely heard. As Fayza Aboulnaga, Egypt’s minister of
international cooperation, told the conference, the number of
women’s business associations in her country has grown from a
single one in 1995 to as many as 22 today. Higher levels of
education as well as economic need have sent more and more
women into the workforce. Islamic law, meanwhile, allows women
to own property and maintain control over their wealth when they
marry. FT
