Mideast mutual funds do well

Middle East: Sunday, December 23 - 2007 at 07:54

The Middle East's mutual funds sector saw strong growth this year as 87 new funds were released, with 52 of them being shariah compliant, reported Gulf News. A good performance by the region's equity markets, with some advancing 30% or more, alongside keen interest from institutional investors, should enable the sector to continue to move forwards in 2008. In 2007, 24 of the new funds were established to track Kuwaiti firms.
