KWT- Potentially Brighter Days Ahead
The iShares MSCI Kuwait ETF which has a relatively high expense ratio and limited stability, seeks to mitigate those flaws with a near 6% yield. Kuwait's oil-based activities are expected to see a meaningful pickup from H2-25 while lower inflation readings are expected to result in a more favorable interest rate environment. Kuwaiti banks, accounting for 66% of this portfolio, will benefit from superior GDP growth and credit expansion, supported by lower policy rates and a potential government-induced infrastructure thrust.
