Kuwaitis trading in Dubai Financial Market (DFM) reached USD 1.61 billion, while their trading in Abu Dhabi securities exchange (ADX) reached USD 408 million, reflecting significance of UAE markets for Kuwaiti investors, said Al-Bayan online newspaper in a special report. The report, which was published on the daily's economic bulletin, noted that strategic partnership between Kuwait and UAE extended to reach different domains, most vital of which is stock markets, which witnessed a remarkable increase lately. Emirates' markets is considered an "attractive" destination for Kuwaiti companies and business people, as it embraces many leading Kuwaiti companies in various fields.
