Final accounts for seven government entities for the fiscal year 2025/2026 revealed a significant disparity between revenues and expenditures, with surpluses recorded for the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development and the Central Bank of Kuwait, while deficits were recorded for five other entities, which were covered by the state’s general treasury or carried forward, depending on the nature of each entity.
Combined revenues for the seven entities amounted to approximately 937.8 million dinars, against expenditures exceeding 775.7 million dinars, resulting in a net surplus of 162.1 million dinars.
Data published in Al-Kuwait Al-Yaum showed that a large portion of the deficits was covered by the budgets of ministries and government departments, specifically the Ministry of Finance’s General Accounts. Meanwhile, surpluses from the Kuwait Fund were directed to the Public Authority for Housing and the General Reserve, and profits from the Central Bank were added to its general reserve.
