Listed: Mr. Tim Callen Reda Cherif Fuad Hasanov Mr. Amgad Hegazy Padamja Khandelwal The economies of the 6 Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations are heavily reliant on oil. Greater financial diversity would reduce their exposure to volatility and unpredictability in the global oil market, help develop jobs in the private sector, boost efficiency and sustainable growth, and help produce the non-oil economy that will be needed in the future when oil earnings start to dwindle.
Success to date has actually been restricted. This paper argues that increased diversification will require straightening incentives for companies and workers in the economiesfixing these incentives is the "missing link" in the GCC countries' diversity methods.

Applying the methodology of material analysis, possible future diversity patterns are studied from present development plans and national visions published by the GCC federal governments.
Current advancement strategies point unanimously to diversification as the ways to secure the stability and the sustainability of income levels in the future. Even though the states continue to lead the economies, diversity involves a reinvigoration of the economic sector and as such demands the application of broader reforms. The paper, however, questions the probability of diversity plans being translated into action.
