Kuwait – The decrease in oil prices led to a 10% decline in Kuwait’s trade surplus value in January compared to the same period last year, dropping from 1.2 billion dinars to 1.1 billion dinars, reports Al- Qabas daily.

Kuwait’s economic growth (real GDP) projection for 2024 was revised by the World Bank to 2.8% y/y, higher than the 2.6% y/y forecasted earlier in January 2024 owing to expectations of phasing out of OPEC+ production cuts, according to Kuwait Financial Centre (Markaz).
