The Ambassador's Reception
Following the successful launch of the world's only pure-play Kuwaiti ETF, the KMEFIC FTSE Kuwait Equity UCITS ETF (KUW8) in April, 2019, HANetf was honoured to be invited to a reception at the British Embassy in Kuwait on 2nd September, 2019.
2019 is a significant milestone in the history of Anglo-Kuwaiti relations, being the 120th anniversary of diplomatic friendship between the two nations.
Kuwait is expected to be the recipient of up to $9 billion of capital flows this year, as a result of its re-classification upgrade to "emerging market" by major index providers.
As guests of Ambassador, Michael Davenport MBE, Hector McNeil, co-CEO and Faisal El-Hakim, Director of Business Development at HANetf were joined by business and political leaders from across the Gulf state as well as The Prime Minister's Trade Envoy to Kuwait, Baroness Morris of Bolton.
