Analyst Opinion

The Traditional Capital Raising market in Kuwait is experiencing significant growth and development in recent years.

Customer preferences:
Kuwaiti investors have traditionally favored conservative investment options, such as real estate and fixed income instruments. However, there has been a shift in customer preferences towards more diverse investment opportunities, including equity investments and alternative assets. This change can be attributed to several factors, including a desire for higher returns, increased awareness of global investment trends, and a younger generation of investors seeking more innovative and dynamic investment options.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Traditional Capital Raising market in Kuwait is the increasing popularity of initial public offerings (IPOs). Kuwait has witnessed a surge in IPO activity, driven by the government's efforts to privatize state-owned enterprises and attract foreign investment. This trend has been further fueled by the strong performance of IPOs in the region, which has generated significant investor interest. Another notable trend is the growing demand for venture capital and private equity investments. Kuwaiti entrepreneurs and startups are increasingly seeking funding from venture capital firms and private equity investors to fuel their growth and expansion plans. This trend is supported by the government's initiatives to promote entrepreneurship and innovation in the country.

Local special circumstances:
Kuwait has a well-established regulatory framework for capital raising activities, which provides a stable and transparent environment for investors. The Capital Markets Authority (CMA) plays a crucial role in regulating and supervising the Traditional Capital Raising market in Kuwait, ensuring investor protection and market integrity. Furthermore, the government's commitment to economic diversification and the development of non-oil sectors has created a favorable environment for capital raising activities. Kuwait's Vision 2035, which aims to transform the country into a financial and commercial hub, has attracted both domestic and international investors, leading to increased capital raising opportunities.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The Traditional Capital Raising market in Kuwait is also influenced by various macroeconomic factors. The country's strong economic fundamentals, including a stable political environment, robust fiscal position, and high GDP per capita, have attracted foreign investors and contributed to the growth of the capital raising market. Additionally, Kuwait's strategic location in the Gulf region and its membership in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) provide access to a large market and facilitate cross-border capital flows. The country's well-developed infrastructure, including modern financial institutions and a sophisticated banking system, further supports the growth of the capital raising market. In conclusion, the Traditional Capital Raising market in Kuwait is witnessing significant growth and development, driven by changing customer preferences, favorable local circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. The increasing popularity of IPOs and the growing demand for venture capital and private equity investments are key trends shaping the market. With a stable regulatory framework and a commitment to economic diversification, Kuwait is well-positioned to attract both domestic and international investors in the capital raising market.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses B2B and B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the amount of capital raised, the average of deal size and the number of deals.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use data from OECD, annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, CPI, number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), new businesses registered (number) . This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.
