FDI in Kuwait needs attention






For those interested in researching the legal challenges to the FDI in Kuwait, the following quote is a good start:

"Foreign Direct Investment in Kuwait decreased by 23 KWD Million in the first quarter of 2019. Foreign Direct Investment in Kuwait averaged 59.23 KWD Million from 2012 until 2019, reaching an all time high of 721 KWD Million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and a record low of -29 KWD Million in the fourth quarter of 2018."

A good example to start with, consider addressing the legal developments and/or constitutionality of the Silk City Project? Is there any agreements between Kuwait and China in this regard?


Such a research should cover the following

Is there any FDI cases brought AGAINST Kuwait whether in ICSID, ICC, etc.?
How had these cases affected the FDI legal regime in Kuwait?
What has happened in Marsha Lazareva Case?
