Why Khaleej Times Works for Investors and High-Net-Worth Readers
Media Intelligence: Reaching Investors and High-Net-Worth Readers in United Arab Emirates
Why Khaleej Times Matters in United Arab Emirates
Khaleej Times launched on 16 April 1978 as the UAE's first English-language daily. It organises its content into UAE, World, Business, Tech and Life areas from February 2026, and its website was redesigned on 29 January 2026.
Weekend print editions stopped from 3 June 2023, so print planning centres on weekdays, with a strong digital and social offer around it.
What the Published Data Says About the Audience
- Monthly digital reach. 37.2 million consumers across web and social (Khaleej Times advertiser page, Feb 2026). This is a combined digital figure, not print readership.
- Website users. 6.5 million monthly website users (Khaleej Times advertiser page, Feb 2026).
- Social following. 3.2 million Instagram followers and over 1 million followers on X (Khaleej Times advertiser page, Feb 2026).
- Premium product. KT LUXE, a weekend business and lifestyle magazine, launched in March 2025.
A Media Planner's View: Where to Place
Use Khaleej Times for broad, credible reach among UAE professionals, entrepreneurs and residents who follow the economy, property and city life. Weekday print display suits launches and announcements, and the website and social channels carry sustained activity at scale.
For investor and premium goals, we place creative in the Business area and in KT LUXE, and time it around property launches, results seasons and major events. We then add airport or business-title media so the same audience meets your brand in more than one place.
Masscom Expert Recommendation: Why Advertise Here
Khaleej Times is one of the UAE's most recognised names, and its mix of print, a heavily visited website and social channels makes it effective for brands that want both credibility and scale. Investment, property, banking, education and luxury advertisers use it to meet a professional, English-reading audience in the UAE.
How we would use it. We would combine print display in the news and business pages with khaleejtimes.com placements, and use KT LUXE for premium and lifestyle creative. English leads, with Arabic versions added where the audience needs them.
Our guidance. We plan Khaleej Times as the scale and credibility layer of a UAE campaign, then add premium and investor-focused media around it so the message reaches the right readers.
How We Would Run Your Khaleej Times Campaign
We start with the audience you need to reach, whether that is investors, business owners or high-net-worth families, and work back to the title, section and edition that put you in front of them. The schedule follows from that.
The rest is ours to handle: creative adapted to the publication's formats, the insertion booked and proofed, and reporting once the advertisement has run.
