Abu Dhabi-based Tourism Development & Investment Company (TDIC) received cash injection of over Dh2 billion from the government in 2013, Fitch Ratings said. The state has consistently provided TDIC with substantial direct financial support, including the provision of free land, recognised by TDIC as equity contributions. In 2013, the government provided cash contribution of more than Dh2bn, according to the ratings agency. Fitch also affirmed TDIC rating with stable outlook. The ratings are aligned with the Abu Dhabi sovereign (AA/Stable/F1+), reflecting strong ties with the sovereign. Fitch said TDIC is unaffected by the emirate's recently approved public debt policy.
