Kuwait Construction Industry Report 2024: Output To Decline Marginally 0.6% In Real-Terms This Year Owing To High Costs, Political Instability, And Budget Cuts - Forecasts To 2028
The construction industry in Kuwait is expected to decline marginally by 0.6% in real terms in 2024, owing to high construction costs, Political instability, budgetary cuts for several infrastructure projects, and falling project revenue projections; especially due to decline in oil export earnings.
As part of the 2024/25 Fiscal Year (FY) Budget (1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025), approved in January 2024, KWD24.5 billion ($79.7 billion) is allocated for capital expenditure, which is 6.5% less compared to expenditure of KWD26.2 billion ($85.2 billion) in FY2023/24. According to FY2024/25 Budget, tax revenue is projected at KWD18.7 billion ($60.8 billion), with revenue from the oil sector projected at KWD16.2 billion ($52.7 billion), while non-oil sector revenue is estimated to stand at KWD2.4 billion ($7.8 billion), giving Kuwait a budget deficit of KWD5.6 billion ($18.33 billion).
In May 2024, the government announced plans to freeze its National Assembly until 2028 to streamline decision-making and in turn, enhance focus on key projects and reforms without legislative interruptions. This move comes in response to opposing a project by the US based chemical producer, Dow Chemical, in November 2023, which led to a fine of KWD614.7 million ($2 billion) on the government.
