A Comparative Analysis of Selected Sectors of The Kuwaiti Economy
Journal Title: International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Research (IJECR) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
It is essential for investors when they want to make their decisions to have reliable information on the sector they are interested in. This paper compares four sectorial groups of the Kuwaiti economy (Real Estate, Banking, Financial Services and Industrial Products) by using three measures of performance (Net Profit Margin, Return on Equity and Return on Assets). The performance of these sectors are reviewed and statistically compared to each other. The Banking Sector appears to be by far the safest sector, whereas ‘Non-banking finance’ appears to exhibit what many investors would surely consider an irrational risk to return trade-off.
