FX.co ★ Kuwait’s M2 Growth Eases Slightly in February, Pointing to Stable Liquidity Conditions

Kuwait’s M2 money supply growth edged down in February 2026, suggesting a modest cooling in monetary expansion while overall liquidity remains stable in the financial system. Year-over-year M2 growth slowed to 3.47% in February from 3.62% in January 2026, according to data updated on 31 March 2026.

Both figures represent annual comparisons, measuring the change in M2 for each month against the same month a year earlier. The slight dip from January to February indicates a marginal deceleration in broad money growth, but not a sharp shift in trend.

While the data do not provide detail on the drivers behind the move, the February reading keeps Kuwait’s money supply growth in a relatively narrow band, a backdrop that can support predictable funding conditions for banks and businesses as the year progresses.
