Boursa Kuwait

Boursa Kuwait was founded on April 21st, 2014 by the Capital Markets Authority Commissioners’ Council Resolution No. 37/2013 dated 20th November, 2013 and the Capital Markets Authority Law No. 7/2010. In addition to being primarily responsible for regulating all aspects of the Kuwaiti capital market, the Capital Markets Authority also has full ownership of Boursa Kuwait, which manages the exchange operations. Boursa Kuwait is responsible for introducing new trading rules, risk management practices, price discovery mechanisms and new technology to ensure that Boursa Kuwait is as robust and secure as possible. The establishment of Boursa Kuwait marked the first step in privatizing the Kuwaiti Stock Exchange, which was founded in 1983.
