The Fund emphasized that Al-Mutairi Exchange Company’s contribution highlights the vital and responsible role of Kuwait’s private sector in supporting government efforts, providing the necessary resources for swift and effective handling of crises and emergency situations, as well as reinforcing values of solidarity and mutual support within society.

Al-Mutairi Exchange Company is among the leading firms in money transfer and exchange services in Kuwait, and was the first exchange company in the country.
