Interesting project I wish them good luck, but I still think it's going to take a while to get up to Dubai and London standards.

This is what they are saying on their website.

The financial centre is planned as a location for large financial companies to establish themselves, and where they can have services like those in cities like Dubai or London but at a lower price.

A financial freezone for large financial companies located in a very corrupt country. Yes this could take 10 but more likely a hundred years to even consider camparing to London or Dubai.

The "FREE" in freezone means the local government is still "free" to regulate, dominate, or expropriate. Asset security is still better held elsewhere.
It does however look cool!! but might end up like the little buildings on the malecon.
