Kuwait to host financial forum
BEIRUT: Kuwaiti financial forum will be hosted in Kuwait later this month under the auspices of His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah and with attendance by Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Al-Hariri.
The forum will feature participation of various Arab financial, banking, and investment experts from Gulf countries and around the world.
The Chief Executive Officer of Economy and Business Group (organizer of the forum), Raouf Abu Zaki stressed, in a statement to KUNA on Tuesday, on the importance of holding the forum in Kuwait due to its strategic position in the financial industry, banking and investment.
Abu Zaki added that the forum will coincide with Kuwait's comprehensive development plan, which in turn presents several investment opportunities for the private sector in Kuwait and in the Arab region.
"An annual forum has become a financial and economic phenomenon which attracts top officials from the Arab and international countries," Abu Zaki added.
The Lebanese official noted that Al-Hariri participation in the forum would further bolster bilateral relations between the two countries. The economic and business group, in a press release, said the forum will also witness a brief by Deputy Premier for Economic Affairs, State Minister for Development Affairs, and State Minister for Housing Affairs Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah who will highlight the country's new development plan and opportunities available to the private sector.
Discussion on the development plan will also take place in the forum, the statement added.
