A White House official has revealed that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has committed to a 10-year investment framework valued at $1.4 trillion in the United States, expanding its financial footprint across key industries.
According to the official, the framework will boost the UAE’s existing investments in the U.S. economy, specifically in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, semiconductors, energy, and American manufacturing.
The agreement follows a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and UAE National Security Adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed in the Oval Office. Additionally, Vice President JD Vance and several Cabinet members hosted a dinner with the UAE delegation, further strengthening economic ties between the two nations.
CNBC reported that Abu Dhabi-based investment fund ADQ and U.S. firm Energy Capital Partners have launched a $25 billion initiative focused on energy infrastructure and data centers in the United States.
In another significant move, XRG, the international investment arm of UAE state oil company ADNOC, announced a major investment to support U.S. natural gas production and exports. The funds will be directed toward NextDecade’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Texas, reinforcing the UAE’s commitment to U.S. energy security.
This unprecedented investment framework signals deepening economic collaboration between the U.S. and the UAE, particularly in critical industries driving future growth and innovation.
