KUWAIT’S AMBITIOUS DRIVE TO BECOME THE GULF REGION’S FINANCIAL HUB

The state of Kuwait is keen on developing economic legislation to execute vital projects that would ultimately contribute to transforming the Arab Gulf nation into a financial hub.

He said the authority has a mandate of providing financial and technical assistance for public-private- partnerships (PPP), aimed at benefitting from the expertise of the private sector to promote competitiveness and innovation. The authority, said Al-Enezi, announced many promising projects in energy, water, wastewater management, education, health, transport, telecommunications, and real estate.LegislationsThe State of Kuwait, he added, sought to develop cyber-related legislation to develop trade and economic activities. “My country seeks to implement an international financial, economic, and commercial system,” he said, and that Kuwait was upgrading e-government services coupled with an exploration of means to address cyber crimes, citing the establishment of the cybersecurity agency. Al-Enezi, meanwhile, said Kuwait supported an international cross-border law to address economic disputes around the globe.  (ICE KUWAIT)
