DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/8brpds/the_report) has announced the addition of the "The Report: Kuwait 2013" report to their offering.
Oil production retains its key role in the economy, however plans are under way to encourage diversification away from hydrocarbons towards an economy that is more knowledge based. The political climate has been characterised of late by a number of disputes, often resulting in either the resignation of the government or the dissolution of parliament and thereby leading to the slow progress of some projects.
However these issues are largely being overcome and Kuwait continues to develop and diversity at a strong rate. Intra-GCC trade continues to grow substantially thanks to several regional projects such as the GCC rail network. This increased regional integration is improving the competitiveness of businesses within this region, as the movement of people and goods becomes easier and cheaper.
Estimated to possess some 6% of the world's proven oil reserves, Kuwait's oil and gas industry promises to play a critical role in the economy for years to come. The nation is not however resting on this alone, and it is now pursuing a programme of economic diversification that is set to re-energise the private sector.
The Kuwait Development Plan is a $107bn, 20-year programme aimed at achieving this goal and is well under way, with new transport networks, upgraded infrastructure, increased oil production and improved services all coming under the remit of its work. This chapter contains viewpoints from Emir Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmed Al Jaber Al Sabah; and David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. It also includes an interview with Péter Szijjártó, Hungarian State Secretary for Foreign Affairs and External Economic Relations.
