Preface

          Significant effort is exerted to reflect the status of investment and financial services companies, with special emphasis on their developmental role in the national economy on one hand, and on the fulfillment of their obligations towards their investors. To illustrate that, we denote major exhaustive pointers of these companies through some detailed tables that reflect their performance. Moreover, we simply show the reality of these companies to indicate the degree of their representation in all the other financial and economic sectors.

           Also, we state the mission of the union, its goals and the tools of achieving them. Adding to that, we include relevant information about the listed companies of investment and financial services in Kuwait Stock Exchange, and also the unlisted companies.

           Due to the continuous increase in the number of companies, we will periodically update all the qualitative and quantitative data that relate to the activities of these companies, available on the website of the union; "www.unioninvest.org".

           We hope that our publication contribute to spreading the technical information and investment awareness to this important and vital sector in our national economy.
