Foreign currency sovereign rate at AAA

KUWAIT CITY, Feb 14: The Malaysian credit rating agency, MARC, affirmed Kuwait’s foreign currency sovereign rating at (AAA) with a stable outlook, based on Kuwait’s strong credit measures, noting that Kuwait’s strong credit rating reflects its strong financial and external reserves that the country enjoys, reports Al-Qabas daily. The agency said in its report that however, Kuwait’s strengths are offset by its heavy dependence on oil and political tensions that still affect its economic decision-making, as well as weak governance and poor performance of government institutions.
