Kuwait eyes on big infrastructure investments

Kuwait’s plans to tap investment  for a raft of infrastructure projects in line with its aim to shift the  economy away from a reliance on hydrocarbons will be put under the microscope in a forthcoming  report to be published by the global publishing,  research and consultancy firm Oxford Business Group (OBG).

Kuwait 2013 will explore the major opportunities which the  country’s plans are set to generate for  investors, including work on roads and ports, the expansion of Kuwait International Airport, a transportation network linking Kuwait to other GCC countries and an offshore tourism resort. It will also shine the spotlight on Kuwait’s long-term roadmap for economic expansion,  the National Development Plan  (NDP), providing detailed analysis of the country’s progress in laying  the  groundwork for diversifying its economy.
