Weather conditions across the UAE over the Eid break are expected to be fairly pleasant, with partly cloudy conditions throughout the week.

However, rain could hit parts of the country. Convective clouds may bring with them some rain on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in eastern and southern parts of the country.

On Tuesday, Abu Dhabi should see bright sunshine and a gentle breeze with temperatures peaking at 41°C.

Temperatures in Dubai should reach 42°C at midday, though humidity will mean conditions will feel more like 44°C.

What is a robo-adviser?

Robo-advisers use an online sign-up process to gauge an investor’s risk tolerance by feeding information such as their age, income, saving goals and investment history into an algorithm, which then assigns them an investment portfolio, ranging from more conservative to higher risk ones.

These portfolios are made up of exchange traded funds (ETFs) with exposure to indices such as US and global equities, fixed-income products like bonds, though exposure to real estate, commodity ETFs or gold is also possible.

Investing in ETFs allows robo-advisers to offer fees far lower than traditional investments, such as actively managed mutual funds bought through a bank or broker. Investors can buy ETFs directly via a brokerage, but with robo-advisers they benefit from investment portfolios matched to their risk tolerance as well as being user friendly.

Many robo-advisers charge what are called wrap fees, meaning there are no additional fees such as subscription or withdrawal fees, success fees or fees for rebalancing.
