U.S. News | Reuters | June 11, 2017 | Dollar Shortages Hit Qatar Exchange Houses as Foreign Banks Scale Back Ties | .. "We have no dollars because there is no shipment or transportation from the United Arab Emirates. There is no stock," said a dealer at the Qatar-UAE Exchange House in Doha's City Center mall. "The shipment is blocked from the UAE.".. The dollar shortages do not mean Qatar, which is one of the richest states in the world per capita and has huge foreign reserves, is running out of money. But they show how the diplomatic crisis is disrupting parts of the financial system.. |
