Summary
$3.76 billion in Kuwaiti investment flowed into Oman in Q1 2026, up 4.6% from a year earlier and keeping Kuwait the largest Arab investor in the sultanate.
Omani preliminary data put Kuwait third among all foreign investors, behind the UK at about $44 billion and the US at $22.6 billion.
China ranked fourth with $2.345 billion after 9.3% growth, underscoring how Oman continues to draw capital from major regional and global investors.
That country mix helped lift Oman's total FDI stock 8.7% to $83.7 billion by end-Q1, with energy-led inflows supporting the broader rise.
