Non-oil trade between the UAE and Kuwait rose 9 percent to AED55 billion ($15 billion) in 2025, Emirati minister of foreign trade Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi said.

Mutual investments surpassed $10 billion by the end of 2024, with more than 60 percent flowing from the UAE to Kuwait, the UAE state-run Wam news agency reported, quoting the minister.

Al Zeyoudi was speaking at the UAE-Kuwait Economic Forum, which he said provides a platform to explore investment opportunities, boost trade in priority sectors, exchange views on economic developments and open new avenues for cooperation. 

Marwa Al Jaidan, undersecretary at Kuwait’s ministry of commerce and industry, said bilateral trade reached $14 billion by the end of 2024, alongside continued growth in tourism, supported by more than 170 weekly flights between the two nations.

She said the forum serves as a strategic platform to strengthen public- and private-sector partnerships and explore investment opportunities across sectors such as industry, energy, advanced technologies, logistics and tourism.

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

The post SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a new standard for crypto ETF listings on Wednesday. The standard is created to simplify the working of exchanges in terms of the process followed for crypto ETP listings. This makes it possible to to avoid the cumbersome route of case-by-case approval being followed so far. With this change, exchanges can bypass the 19(b) rule filing process. It is a review that can stretch up to 240 days and demands direct SEC approval before an ETF can launch. Instead of going through the tedious and lengthy review process, the SEC has set up a system that allows exchanges to act more quickly. Now, when an ETF issuer presents a product idea to exchanges like Nasdaq, NYSE, or CBOE, the exchange can move ahead as long as the proposal meets the generic listing standard. This means that strategies based on a single token or a basket of tokens can be listed without waiting for individual approval. New Standards Will Ease Crypto ETF Listings: SEC Chairman According to the Chairman of the SEC, Paul Atkins, this move is aimed at making it easier for investors to access digital asset products through regulated U.S. markets. He noted that by approving generic listing standards, the agency is helping U.S. capital markets remain a global leader in digital asset innovation. At the same time, the SEC approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, a fund made up of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano and Solana. Furthermore, the SEC also approved a new type of options linked to the Cboe Bitcoin U.S. ETF Index and its mini version. This step further expands the range of crypto-linked derivatives available in regulated U.S. markets. How Will SEC General Listing Standard Impact Altcoin Crypto ETF Market?
