Kuwait is one of the biggest players in the global energy market, with its proven oil reserves currently the sixth largest in the world. Although revenues from hydrocarbons account for more than 60% of GDP and 95% of exports, the country’s low production costs and sizeable fiscal reserves mean it is well positioned to cope with lower oil prices in the short term. This is clear from the government’s ongoing commitment to delivering projects outlined in the national development strategy, Kuwait Vision 2035. In the financial services sector, Kuwait continues to perform well, as a series of regulations put in place by the Central Bank of Kuwait in recent years have served to shore up the sector’s recovery from the global economic downturn.

Necessity has always been the mother of invention. Time and again history has demonstrated that in times of hardship new opportunities emerge that have had a profound impact on what followed. For Kuwait, the arrival of COVID-19, as with everywhere else across the globe, has presented an unprecedented type of challenge. Kuwait's response as a country, and its ability to rally together, has not only mitigated the worst exigencies of the virus, but poised Kuwait to be ready to thrive as the new normal is established. This 24-page special report seeks to bring attention to the key themes that have emerged during this period, as well as shine a spotlight on the core decision makers whose experiences help contextualise Kuwait's wider ability to navigate the pandemic.
