In the context of an application for security for costs on the basis that the claimant was resident in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE"), the High Court has held that there was no real risk of substantial obstacles to enforcement or an additional burden in terms of costs or delay in enforcing English court judgments in the UAE. Accordingly, as there was no reason to consider that the UAE Courts would not enforce an English costs order, the application for security for costs was denied: Invest Bank PSC v Ahmad Mohammed E-Husseini [2022] EWHC 3008 (Comm).
