Kuwait M&A: Sector growth driving market activity

M&A activity in Kuwait continues to gain momentum, with growth increasingly driven by key sectors, particularly oil, gas and utilities, alongside a broader base of active investors.

ASAR has contributed to the Kuwait chapter of the Chambers Corporate M&A Global Practice Guide 2026.

Authored by Ezekiel Tuma, John Cunha, and Luis Cunha the chapter provides a practical overview of the legal and regulatory framework governing M&A in Kuwait, including transaction structures, regulatory approvals and key legal considerations.

The latest edition reflects a market shaped by:

  • increasing participation from financial investors
  • ongoing consolidation across key industries.

These trends point to a market that is becoming more active, sector-driven and increasingly sophisticated.
