Kuwaiti bourse launches emerging companies market

2025/12/16 15:17

Kuwait’s stock exchange has launched a market for emerging companies following an increase in demand to join the busy bourse.

The emerging companies market is intended to widen participation by local companies in the bourse and attract their investment, a statement from the exchange said.

“Boursa Kuwait announces its readiness for the emerging companies market,” the statement said, adding that it began receiving applications on Sunday.

The move means Kuwait’s exchange is now divided into four sections, with the emerging companies market complementing the main market, the primary bourse and the auction market, according to the statement.

Boursa Kuwait stipulated in July that emerging companies wishing to join the new market must have minimum capital of KD750,000 ($2.4 million) and said this capital would be evaluated by an authorised auditor.

“Companies listed on the primary market, the main market, or the auction market are not permitted to switch to the emerging companies market,” the bourse said.

New companies listed on the emerging market could qualify to list on the primary market after fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the bourse authority, it added.

Kuwait’s bourse is one of the largest and busiest stock markets in the Middle East, with 139 companies listed at the end of November, bourse data showed.

Their market capitalisation stood at around KD55 billion at the end of October, nearly $33 billion higher than a year earlier.

Banks form the dominant sector in the bourse, with their capitalisation standing at around KD33 billion, nearly 60 percent of the market’s total.

The Kuwaiti bourse’s All Share Index has risen 22.5 percent this year to December 16. The biggest movers are energy and real estate, up 50 percent and 52 percent respectively.

Pictures Key Facts “One Battle After Another” boasts a nearly perfect 97 out of a possible 100 on Metacritic based on its first 31 reviews, making it the highest-rated movie of this decade on Metacritic’s best movies of all time list. The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn. The Warner Bros.-produced film was made on a big budget, estimated to be between $130 million and $175 million, and co-stars Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor.
