DUBAI //If all has gone according to the federal telecoms regulator's plan, users of counterfeit mobile phones will have awoken today to find their handsets crippled by a new ban on fake devices.
The ban, which went into effect just after midnight yesterday, prevents all counterfeit phones from making and receiving calls.
The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) is targeting any device with an invalid 17 or 15-digit International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number.
However, a similar ban introduced in India in 2009 only resulted in hundreds of thousands of cases of IMEI code cloning.
"It's not foolproof by any means but it is possible to generate new IMEI numbers using software downloaded from the internet," explained Ashwani Budhiraja, the managing director of the Mobile Standards Alliance of India, which issues IMEI numbers to telecoms operators in India.
Cloning can be done by simply copying the IMEI number off the packaging of a genuine phone or by typing *#06# on a genuine phone to retrieve its number, and then using it on a fake handset.
"It's a very simple but effective and the number can be used thousands of times on different phones.
"It requires the operators to have specialised software to detect it, but that doesn't come cheap so it's not something every operator would use," Mr Budhiraja said.
The IMEI is linked to the chip set used in each cellphone and is unique to it. Phone manufacturers such as Samsung and Nokia make sure their phones have a hard-wired unique IMEI linked to the internal chip set of their phones, thus making them very difficult to change.
"For fake phones, especially from China, there is nothing like that so it's much easier to generate new codes and then change the IMEI on the handset," said Mr Budhiraja.
"What I believe will happen is that these fake phones will be blocked and then maybe within hours or days they will be reactivated with newly generated or cloned IMEI numbers. This will be a continuous cycle. It's been our experience in India," he said.
The TRA took out advertisements in daily newspapers warning people of the impending ban on counterfeit phones.
It said the reason for the move was because substandard parts in such phones could pose a risk to consumers. Incorrectly manufactured batteries, for example, could explode or cause a fire. Counterfeit phones also infringe on the copyright of genuine manufacturers.
But customers remain attracted to fake mobile phones because they look almost identical to the genuine product and come at a fraction of the cost.
"I don't think it will be a problem," said one man who has been using a fake iPhone for the past two months.
"It does pretty much everything the real thing would but it only cost me about Dh500. I think it's from China but I'm not sure."
Another user of a counterfeit phone, who travels frequently to India, said the ban would not deter him.
"I can get the phone reactivated when I go back to India, so it's not such a big deal for me," he said.
Dino Wilkinson, a communications and technology partner at the law firm Norton Rose in Abu Dhabi, agreed that there were ways to circumvent the block.
"It's always a game of cat and mouse between the authorities and those offering the fakes," he said. "I wouldn't be surprised if some kind of technical solution to the block is developed to get around the regulations."
But he warned consumers that the ban was for their own good. "Many of these fake devices are made from substandard components, and something like that containing a battery has the potential to develop a fault," he said.
While the TRA ban aims to make fake phones "obsolete", services will not be affected on genuine handsets.

What the law says
Micro-retirement is not a recognised concept or employment status under Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021 on the Regulation of Labour Relations (as amended) (UAE Labour Law). As such, it reflects a voluntary work-life balance practice, rather than a recognised legal employment category, according to Dilini Loku, senior associate for law firm Gateley Middle East.
“Some companies may offer formal sabbatical policies or career break programmes; however, beyond such arrangements, there is no automatic right or statutory entitlement to extended breaks,” she explains.
“Any leave taken beyond statutory entitlements, such as annual leave, is typically regarded as unpaid leave in accordance with Article 33 of the UAE Labour Law. While employees may legally take unpaid leave, such requests are subject to the employer’s discretion and require approval.”
If an employee resigns to pursue micro-retirement, the employment contract is terminated, and the employer is under no legal obligation to rehire the employee in the future unless specific contractual agreements are in place (such as return-to-work arrangements), which are generally uncommon, Ms Loku adds.

Real estate tokenisation project
Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.
The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.
Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

Mercer, the investment consulting arm of US services company Marsh & McLennan, expects its wealth division to at least double its assets under management (AUM) in the Middle East as wealth in the region continues to grow despite economic headwinds, a company official said.
Mercer Wealth, which globally has $160 billion in AUM, plans to boost its AUM in the region to $2-$3bn in the next 2-3 years from the present $1bn, said Yasir AbuShaban, a Dubai-based principal with Mercer Wealth.
“Within the next two to three years, we are looking at reaching $2 to $3 billion as a conservative estimate and we do see an opportunity to do so,” said Mr AbuShaban.
Mercer does not directly make investments, but allocates clients’ money they have discretion to, to professional asset managers. They also provide advice to clients.
“We have buying power. We can negotiate on their (client’s) behalf with asset managers to provide them lower fees than they otherwise would have to get on their own,” he added.
Mercer Wealth’s clients include sovereign wealth funds, family offices, and insurance companies among others.
From its office in Dubai, Mercer also looks after Africa, India and Turkey, where they also see opportunity for growth.
Wealth creation in Middle East and Africa (MEA) grew 8.5 per cent to $8.1 trillion last year from $7.5tn in 2015, higher than last year’s global average of 6 per cent and the second-highest growth in a region after Asia-Pacific which grew 9.9 per cent, according to consultancy Boston Consulting Group (BCG). In the region, where wealth grew just 1.9 per cent in 2015 compared with 2014, a pickup in oil prices has helped in wealth generation.
BCG is forecasting MEA wealth will rise to $12tn by 2021, growing at an annual average of 8 per cent.
Drivers of wealth generation in the region will be split evenly between new wealth creation and growth of performance of existing assets, according to BCG.
Another general trend in the region is clients’ looking for a comprehensive approach to investing, according to Mr AbuShaban.
“Institutional investors or some of the families are seeing a slowdown in the available capital they have to invest and in that sense they are looking at optimizing the way they manage their portfolios and making sure they are not investing haphazardly and different parts of their investment are working together,” said Mr AbuShaban.
Some clients also have a higher appetite for risk, given the low interest-rate environment that does not provide enough yield for some institutional investors. These clients are keen to invest in illiquid assets, such as private equity and infrastructure.
“What we have seen is a desire for higher returns in what has been a low-return environment specifically in various fixed income or bonds,” he said.
“In this environment, we have seen a de facto increase in the risk that clients are taking in things like illiquid investments, private equity investments, infrastructure and private debt, those kind of investments were higher illiquidity results in incrementally higher returns.”
The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, one of the largest sovereign wealth funds, said in its 2016 report that has gradually increased its exposure in direct private equity and private credit transactions, mainly in Asian markets and especially in China and India. The authority’s private equity department focused on structured equities owing to “their defensive characteristics.”

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.
