Khaberni - The Central Bank of Kuwait announced today, Monday, the allocation of an issuance of bonds and Islamic securities valued at 100 million Kuwaiti dinars (about 330 million dollars).
According to the Kuwaiti news agency (KUNA), the Kuwaiti bank clarified that the issuance term is six months with a return rate of 3.750%.
This is the second issuance by the Kuwaiti bank within a week, as last Wednesday, a new public debt instrument issuance was announced, totaling 200 million dinars, with a two-year term and a 4% yield.
This indicates a renewed active schedule for issuances which had been paused for about two months, confirming a more clear local yield curve following the enforcement of the legislative framework associated with financing and liquidity.
This increased activity in the pace of issuances comes under a broader legislative and financial framework that Kuwait experienced in the year 2025, following the issuance of Decree-Law No. 60 of 2025 concerning financing and liquidity.
Under the decree, borrowing mechanisms, their tools, and public debt limits were regulated, allowing a broader margin for financing various needs within a specified debt ceiling.
In parallel, Kuwait returned to global debt markets in 2025 through a significant dollar issuance, signaling its intent to diversify financing sources between local and international markets, with the advantage of investor appetite when pricing conditions are favorable.
