Its unique pure-play approach expands local exposure to include non-local companies that generate at least 50% of their revenues in Kuwait. The MVIS Kuwait Index (MVKUWT) covers at least 90% of the investable universe. Most demanding size and liquidity screenings are applied to potential index components to ensure investability.
