The exact change

Before

In our analysts' experience, a foreign entrepreneur can establish a fully licensed, visa-enabled company in Dubai for as little as AED 20,000 to 25,000 using a budget free zone.

After

A foreign entrepreneur can establish a fully licensed, visa-enabled company in Dubai for as little as AED 20,000 to 25,000 (approximately $5,500 to $6,800 USD) using a budget free zone.

Suggested change

Removed two fabricated "our analysts" authority-voice instances.

Why this is better

Attributing the figure to 'our analysts' implied an original research process behind a widely published cost estimate, so the unverified-authority framing was removed.
